Nikon Coolpix 880 ... Nikon Coolpix 880 offers extensive features to guarantee high performance and ease of use for both business and personal applications. With Coolpix 880, anyone can take great pictures without having a background in photography. The combination of a 3.34-megapixel CCD and a 2.5x (38-95 mm) Zoom-Nikkor lens featuring Nikon's superior optics ensures high quality pictures every time. And the camera is so small and lightweight that you can slip it your pocket or purse and take it with you wherever you go. Nikon recognizes that great pictures and great memories go hand in hand. The camera's brand new Scene modes help even the most novice photographer take better pictures. Simply set Coolpix 880 to the appropriate scene and the camera automatically sets itself for optimal performance to take a great picture. Now, users don't need to be skilled photographers in order to capture a spectacular sunset; they just select the Sunset mode and the Coolpix 880 automatically adjusts the settings and takes the shot, producing a beautiful photograph. The 11 different Scene modes include Fireworks, Beach/Snow, Party, Sunset, Close-up, Backlight, Copy (whiteboard/paper), Portrait, Nighttime Portrait, Landscape, and Nighttime Landscape. Coolpix 880 is perfect for anyone who wants great photographs instead of ordinary, everyday snapshots.

True to form, Nikon has designed the camera with the optical excellence that has long given the company's cameras a worldwide reputation for superiority. Other features like the five-area multi-autofocus and newly designed exposure algorithm complement the camera's optics to ensure razor-sharp, colorful pictures every time. Coolpix 880 brings magic and excitement to everyday photo-taking situations with cool features such as quick review. The new quick review function allows you to see each picture immediately after shooting it, so you always know if you've "gotten your shot" right away. The quick review also allows you to scroll through all the images that have been previously recorded. Coolpix 880 features the simplicity of a point-and-shoot camera, but includes a manual mode for more advanced photographers and will even allow users to shoot up to a 40-second QuickTime video file. To streamline operation, the camera was designed with quick, one-touch startup, mode selection with a pictorial dial, and a USB port for Plug and Play connectivity. Numerous accessories are available for the photographer looking to have the greatest expandability and flexibility in any situation. Like earlier Coolpix models, Coolpix 880 is compatible with a variety of powerful, versatile Coolpix lenses (using optional step-down ring), including telephoto, wide angle and fisheye. Nikon Coolpix cameras are for everyone, both at work and at home.

The only confusion I found was with the system for download that involves a separate drive that you link to your computer and then pictures have to be copied to your album staorage folders. At first this got me confused but after mastering it I found that this made picture retrieval much faster than a twain drive and I can see this is the way to go.

I have now been using this digital camera for 3 months after it arrived new to the UK scene. At first I was nonplussed by the lack of twain drivers for retrieving pictures but within a day I had come to terms with the instruction book and now I am extremely impressed.

A Nikon Coolpix 880 has been my constant companion now for three weeks, and about 300 pictures. It is small, light, and relatively simple to use in a relatively simple way, but to get more control over the camera's many functions, reference must be made to the 200 page instruction book. In the idiot mode, you just compose and press the button, but if you want to tweak the image - flash on or off, more or less exposure, adjust the depth of field of the image, over-ride the many default settings, then the instruction book is needed to gain familiarity. But it is worth the effort? Probably, because when you do take control the results, when printed with a ...
