The Nikon Coolpix L5 provides a generous 7.2 megapixel resolution and produces images with great picture clarity, which can be fully appreciated on the bright 2.5" LCD. The powerful, 38-190mm equivalent Zoom-Nikkor lens ensures matchless compositional freedom, from zooming in for intimate personal portraits to zooming out for expansive outdoor scenes. Furthermore, Lens shift Vibration Reduction (VR) technology allows the user to make the most of 5x zoom lens. Less

The L5 is easy to use right out of the box, when I turned it on for the first time it walked me through the set up. The L5 has a large... Read full review »

Cons Slightly blurry corners, no manual control over aperture or shutter speed
Recommended it? Yes

Such is the case with the new Canon SD1200 IS that replaces the previous model, Canon... Read full review »
