About 's conclusion / rating - 17 August 2009 |
“ Beginning photographers typically look for two things in a point and shoot camera: Ease of use and a great value (meaning a good mix of price and features). Such cameras might not do everything perfectly, but they should outperform others in their price range.
My Nikon Coolpix L20 review shows that this point and shoot digital camera fits those two critera almost perfectly. In addition, it features excellent response times. The Coolpix L20 (MSRP: $129) has almost no shutter lag, meaning you rarely miss a spontaneous photo.
Nikon has created a very nice, basic, affordable camera for beginners with the L20... ”

“ All in all, the Coolpix L20 is a very affordable camera that performed very well in our image tests. In terms of value, ease of use, and eye-catching looks, it’s one of the best bargain point-and-shoots we’ve seen so far in 2009. Don’t expect the manual controls you’d get with slightly more expensive cameras, but do consider the Coolpix L20 as a great option for beginners and night-on-the-town photographers... ”

“ The Nikon Coolpix L20 is a plain and easy-to-use entry-level digital camera. The L20 offers 10 megapixels of resolution, a large 3 inch LCD and a 3.6X zoom lens which is unfortunately slow and has no image stabilization.
As you’d probably expect from an affordable, entry-level camera like this one, the Coolpix L20 doesn’t sport any manual controls or a sexy, slim design. In fact, things are just the opposite – the camera is larger than most cameras (though it still fits into most pockets without doubt) and barely has any settings you can change. You can’t even set ISO yourself!
Despite that, there’s great news for people who don’t want to get involved in their camera’s settings at all. The Coolpix L20’s operation is quite straightforward – there’s plenty of scene modes, an “Easy mode”, all sorts of detection features (Face, smile, blink and motion) and the camera can even pick a scene mode for you! So turn on the camera, pick a mode and you’re ready to go – press the shutter button to fire.
Speaking of taking photos, the Coolpix L20 performs the best (image quality and performance wise) outdoors or at least, in places with good lighting. Otherwise, if you’re planning on shooting in low-light, expect the camera to take ages to focus, use very high ISO settings and produce mushy, low-detail photos.
If you’re in the market for a simple barebones camera for casual picture taking in good light, then the Nikon Coolpix L20 is probably for you. That said, the camera may be just TOO simple – it doesn’t even have manual ISO control! For the majority of consumers out there who typically look for the most features for their buck or at least some settings they can play with, the Coolpix L20 is out of the question... ”
