Product Description
Coolpix 700 is a compact and sturdy camera, shaped for a comfortable and secure grip. It will easily fit in a pocket or purse, or clip onto a belt with its included carrying case. Combine this with speed, advanced features, ease of use, and demonstrated high quality output. The result? An ideal "only" digital camera for casual home or everyday business use, and an ideal "second" camera for the more intense photographer.For the casual home or business user, Coolpix 700 takes minimal training and experience to use. This means that family, friends, or employees can effectively use the camera with just a few simple instructions. And with its highest resolution output (1600x1200 pixels) in the "fine" quality mode, it will produce smooth, detailed, high quality prints up to 8" x 10" (20cm x 25cm). For the more intense user, Coolpix 700 is not a toy - it makes a great second camera, because its small size and ease of use give it an important role in day-to-day photography. The automatically programmed shutter speeds and aperture settings are visible in the LCD screen, if you so choose. Like the LCD view itself, the shutter and aperture readouts are live and in real time. With this information, the experienced photographer will be able to determine the suitability of the shutter speed and aperture for the situation at hand. And with a little practice, it's quite simple to quickly change the ISO setting from the default 80, up to 100, 160, or 320 - with the resulting changes in shutter speeds and aperture combinations.
Amazon.com Product Description
The Nikon Coolpix 700 digital camera gives photographers high digital quality with point-and-shoot-style controls for easy use. Although not the most technologically advanced of the Nikon Coolpix family (two later models have since been released), the Nikon Coolpix 700 gives you an array of high-powered features at a more modest price than its followers. It includes a 2.11-megapixel, 0.5-inch CCD and Nikkor lens for photographic image quality at print sizes up to 11 inches x 14 inches; four-step digital zoom capabilities; a high-speed continuous shooting mode (up to 2 frames per second); as well as fully automatic focus, flash, metering, and white balance.

The Nikon Coolpix 700's high-resolution 1.8-inch LCD display allows real-time viewing of shots and makes for easier playback. Images can be saved in uncompressed TIFF or one of 3 JPEG compression modes for different storage and downloading options.

Included with the Nikon Coolpix 700 are an 8 MB removable CompactFlash memory card capable of storing a maximum of 128 images, Nikon software, lens cap, soft case, strap, serial cable, batteries, and more. Nikon also issues a 1-year warranty on this item.

great first camera!.......2002-05-22

I received this camera as a gift. It's my first experience with a digital camera, and it's been great! The reference manual (provided on CD) is easy to follow and extremely helpful. The camera also comes with HotShots, software for importing and editing pictures. The camera is lightweight and easy to use. My only complaint is how quickly the batteries die, but from what I understand, this happens with most digital cameras. A great camera all around!

A pretty great digital camera.......2000-01-07

What's impressed me the most about this camera is the quality of the pictures, which, after all, is what you buy a camera for in the first place (unless all you want is snapshots). Spectacular resolution--on a good monitor, virtually indistinguishable from that of a printed photo. Not so hot for moodily lit shots--keep your SLR for that. The camera fits into the hand well (though it's shaped for right-handers only) and is fairly easy to use. It really eats batteries, though, so buy an AC adapter for it. Also, the included software is somewhat weak and buggy. Download Cameraid from the Net, and use that, instead. Happy shutterbuggin'!

You can't go wrong.......2000-01-05

Thoroughly pleased with the Nikon Coolpix 700. I was shooting within minutes of taking it out of the box. More features and effects than I will ever need and the photos are great. At just under 10 ounces, this camera is a pleasure to hold and use. I highly recommend it, particularly for not so serious camera buffs or for family use.

A great camera for the money........1999-11-19

I've taken about 200 photo's so far and the results are very impressive. An endless array of features, including B/W, motor-wind etc. You name it, it does it. We're very happy with this camera.
