Duration of ownership: 3 Months

Strengths: Great pics, fast start up from powering on, easy to set up & let someone else take pics

Weaknesses:Some features buried deep in menus

Overall Evaluation: I did a ton of research on digicams, eventually deciding to get a Canon. However, at the camera store, the man behind the counter said they were out of that particular model, so he showed me the Coolpix 3700.I bought that & a case - & had buyer's regret. My husband told me to give it a chance, to start using it & see for myself if it was any good.The first shots I took were very good, & when I did a movie with my 2 howling Malamutes in the backyard, I warmed to it.I warmed even more when we went on vacation to San Francisco in April. A spectacularly sunny week - & the pics showed it! Shots taken by the Golden Gate Bridge, at Muir Woods, at the Wharf...you name it, the beautiful blues and reds et al. were spectacular.The one downside to all this is that I have yet to explore the camera's features, altho it would have been nice if Nikon did bury a lot of them; it's hard to remember where certain features are located if you're trying to take a quick shot!It has a solid feel and the price is just right (and who says you need more megapixels to get great pics?). The SD memory that comes with the digicam, as is typical, is nothing, so an upgrade to two 256 cards (they're pretty cheap now) should be enough memory to save plenty of pics.As for the included lithium battery, it lasted a couple of days, but I had come prepared by bringing 2 CP1 batteries (you can find them for a decent price at Wal-Mart). True, CP1s are disposable and thus aren't as eco-friendly as the rechargeables, but then what do you do when your rechargeable goes down in the middle of taking shots? That's why I suggest bringing along at least one CP1 battery, just in case.All in all, this is a wonderful point and shoot camera.

Duration of ownership: 2 Days

Strengths: Inexpensive, good pictures, multiple modes.

Weaknesses:Comparing to Canon SD300/200, this one is not as compact, and is much slower.

Overall Evaluation: This is a decent DC for the price AR, but now the rebate has expired, I'd get Canon SD200 over this one. At the same price point and with comparable features, SD200 has more style and much faster speed.

Duration of ownership: 60 Days

Strengths: Very Good Camera for Beginers.Sleek and Compact.Good Clarity of Pictures and Video Quality is ok.

Weaknesses:I feel 3X Zoom is not good enough.But u cant get it for this price its worth 100% of your money

Overall Evaluation: The Reason I gave 4 Stars is coz of the Zoom.Its 3 X Zoom and picture quality goes down after 2X.Actually its a 2 X camera.But its a very good beginers camera !! Its worth your money So play with it and have fun !!

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Easy to use. Very compact and light. Comes with rechargable battery. Long battery life.

Weaknesses:A little noise on the picture when shooting at a dim environment which I think is pretty normal for this kind of camera.

Overall Evaluation: This is an excellent camera for point and shoot. I would recommend this camera for a day to day use since the size is very compact and light.

01-26-05

Duration of ownership: 40 Days

Strengths: size, ability to replace camcorder

Weaknesses:audio sync problem

Overall Evaluation: This is a great little camera. There are some problems with the audio lagging slightly behind the video (about 1/3 of a second). I do not normally notice it, but if you take a video of a ruler hitting a desk, it is pretty obvious. I have investigated various cures on the internet and have found none, but I don't think this is a really bad problem. I have compared the video quality against my DV camcorder and it is just as good, so I just use the camera and I can ditch the camcorder. Another problem was that my LCD viewfinder had a bad pixel. This is said to be "normal" in the Nikon manual, so if you're really picky about those things, you should buy it from someone who accepts returns no questions asked.

Review:

Nikon Coolpix 3700

Diminutive 3700 is easy to use and takes great shots, but it's pricey for a 3.2-megapixel point-and-shoot.
