Duration of ownership:
Strengths: small size, good price
Weaknesses: auto-focus
Overall Evaluation: I bought this camera after my old camera died while on vacation. I didn't do a lot of research so I went for a small cheap camera and that is what this is. If you are looking for a small camera to keep handy this is worth a look.However, I hate the auto-focus on this camera. It often fails to work, when it does it is slow. When the image is dark you might as well forget it. The image quality is good, not great. I keep this little guy in my backpack where ever I go, so I always have a camera handy and for that its small size and price more than make up for its other shortcomings.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Compact size, inexpensive, easy to operate for the beginner
Weaknesses: Weak performance in low light, slow recycle time between shots
Overall Evaluation: This is a fairly nice camera for the money. It would be a nice camera to introduce a person to digital photography. It did not meet my personal needs due to very poor performance in low light situations and slow recycle times. But I gave it to my daughter to learn photography on and its perfect for her. I would recommend this camera for that purpose only - as a teaching aid.

Strengths: Affordable. Compact.
Weaknesses: Slow. Mediocre quality. Small LCD.
Overall Evaluation: CoolPix L10 Silver Digital Camera has very low-end specs. Its LCD is small, it has only 5MP, and internal memory is almost useless. Nevertheless it will make a very good starter digital camera, because it is cheap but from a reliable maker, Nikon. This camera cannot yield crispy photos, and movie file has noises. If you don't like these problems, it would be better to avoid this camera and invest more money on other cameras.

Duration of ownership:1 Months
Strengths: Size, Price,
Weaknesses: Autofocus, low light performance
Overall Evaluation: I wanted an inexpensive camera that I could grab when I didn't want to have to lug around the camera bag with the 12x zoom camera. This camera is small enough to be carried in a coat or pants pocket without much notice. When off, a door closes over the lens so you don't need a separate camera bag/cover. Provided enough light the camera takes nice pictures. Indoors and areas without ample amounts of light can be an issue. I don't like the fact that there is no view finder (I hate holding the camera out to compose the shot) but understand the lack due to the size and LCD. The biggest issue I have with this camera is the autofocus. It takes a long time searching to get focus lock and many times will not successfully focus. I have missed several shots due to the autofocus searching. All in all, for the price and quality of the shots I do get, this is a good camera.

Strengths: Lightweight, Compact, Good Images. QuickTime Video Mode with Audio
Weaknesses: A little slow in reponse
Overall Evaluation: I'm a DSLR user and had an old Olympus D-510 that I hated carrying around because of its size. Found this on sale for a great price and had to replace my Olympus as it's not practical to carry my D70 around. This is nice and compact with good quality images. Popped in a 2GB SanDisk Ultra II Secure Digital Card Plus USB Adapter (see my other review) and I have tons of space. According to the camera, I can take over 700 pictures at the highest resolution or over 3 hours of QuickTime Video with audio. Very easy to use and the display is sharp with good battery life considering the LCD is the only way to shoot an image as there is no viewfinder. Found a nice case on eBay to pop this in and they both fit into my pocket.

Strengths: cheap... dirt cheap...
Weaknesses: cheap... lacks manual ISO setting.. slow shutter..
Overall Evaluation: I paid about $40 for this camera after rebates and I believe it's worth that much. However, if you are looking for a good camera, don't buy this one. The optics seems cheap, shutter delay is long, and it doesn't even have basic features like manual ISO setting.. It's good to throw in the glove box and keep there just in case..

Strengths: Good optical zoom, SD Card, Compact form factor and slim design, Quality Pictures
Weaknesses: Shooting pictures and video under uneven lighting condition is not that great.
Overall Evaluation: Fantastic technology, all at a highly affordable price. This camera is compact, light, and it fits in my pocket. I use it for work and personal pleasure. I like the fact that it uses AA batteries. For the price, I could give it a 5 star but the battery life seems a bit short. I could only get around 70 shots with 2x Energizer 2500mAh batteries. I also think it takes a bit too long to start (about 4 or 5 seconds). The LCD is sharp and clear. It's a very good camera at this price range.

Strengths: size, price
Weaknesses: None significant
Overall Evaluation: I bought this camera for my dad who is very new to digital photography. I have nothing negative to say about this camera. The price (a promotional price of $85 from Ritz Camera) can't be beat. The size is about right.. not too big, not too small. Picture quality is excellent for its price. The fact that the camera supports multi-languages is also great for my dad who does not speak English.

Strengths: Size weight and quality of the image
Weaknesses: if the LCD size is a bit larger this camera would got a 5 star rating
Overall Evaluation: My Canon SD300 is not working properly, so I decide to by a new camera. My friend has a Nikon L1, and I really love the pictures it took. I do not need the 5x lens as well as 6m pixel image. I went bestbuy and saw this camera is on sale and bought it immediately. I used it for over 3 weeks and it worked perfectly.
