Advantages: Great beginners camera

Disadvantages: A little bit on the heavy side

The Nikon Coolpix 2500 is a great beginners digital camera with loads of helpful settings. With a 2.0 megapixel, the photo quality is fantastic. It has a 3x Zoom Nikkor lense with telephoto and wide angle lense buttons. If you are intrested in making a video it is realy simple, just a setting the video mode up will alow you to take approx 15 to 20 sec video footage. Does help if you have a tripod just like any other digital camera that does not have anti shake settings. The camera has a rotating lense which does help getting a good angle on the photo you wish to take. One thing I found a littl confussing is the menu settings which I had to keep refering back to the manual to remind myself on how to change to the features I needed.

The LCD panel is around 1.5" x 1" and can be a bit hard to see at times when it is quiet sunny outside. Other than that the LCD panel is really useful when viewing your shots.
The battery life is very good and doesn't take to long to recharge the battery on the main too. The flash is built in and I have never had a problem with red eye.

Over all the Camera's features are great but I did find it was alot heavier than other camera's in its range type.
The price at dixons is around £150 to £180.

Summary: Will never part with my little gem
