Verdict
Although we shouldn’t expect much from a point and shoot camera in this price range, it is still devastating to see some of the features Nikon decided to put in the Nikon Coolpix L340 model. The biggest problem for many users will definitely be the rechargeable battery pack that’s missing with this model. Sure, this is done to ensure that the camera costs as little as it does, but there are certainly other features that could have been adjusted to the needs of potential customers in order to get to that price.
