I am not a new user of camera. I have already Minolta SLR camera with me.
The photo clarity of photos taken by NIKON COOLPIX is really bad. I didn’t like this new camera model by NIKON. This camera has some latest feature of Nikon called D-lighting feature which allows you to enhance the lighting of any photos which you have taken in low lights.
May be because of this feature every photo that you take looks dull in light - you will feel as if you have taken the photo in low light when in reality lighting was perfect. I observed this problem when I take pictures inside the buildings like say function hall, inside the houses or buildings - where you find artificial lighting facility.
I have got excellent results for photos taken in nature especially when taken in day light.
For all other features its similar to NIKON COLLPIX 5600, except the resoltion is 7 mega pixel.
