a nice camera, excellent value for the money if you can get a brand new one for under a 100 bucks, the camera is very easy to use, takes high quality pictures and video, only down size is that the camera is very fragile, if you drop it hard enough just once, the camera will stop working, it will just click repeatedly and the view will be shakey/wavey. if you need a digital camera, you can get a new one for 75-100, and an used one for around 55-70.
Overall, this is a nice little camera. I bought this camera specifically for a concert, because most venues prohibit "professional" cameras such as my Nikon D60. This prohibition seems very silly now, since the new crop of point and shoot cameras can take professional quality photos. I used the camera first at a hockey game, which was not fair to me or the camera. I am not used to framing pictures with a screen instead of a viewfinder. This is just about the only problem I have with this camera; it needs a viewfinder. I do not recommend this camera for shooting fast moving subjects. The camera is very easy to use and produces very nice pictures. It is a perfect camera for someone who is interested in pictures rather than photography. Now, for the reason I bought the camera - it takes wonderful pictures in low light conditions. It also takes very nice video - but I was amazed by the quality of the audio!Read full review
I was looking for a camera to take pictures of my artwork. I needed a high quality picture at a resonable price. Of course I have seen the coolpix on T.V. and was very suprised to find this camera performed every bit as good as advertised. It is small compact fits in your back pocket, has good battery life. Tha features are baisic, but this is a well rounded camera that does many diferent things well. I was really surprised on the video quality!
Wonderful camera. Excellent video quality, including sound. Comprehensive menu including many creative features.

1st time own a digital camera! This camera is outdated. Camera is discontinue and parts are limited... Nikon might able to repair due to the lack of parts...(This in my area)... Parts made be available in another country and not much on E-bay.. I like this camera as a learning experience...Unfortunate my broke...Attempt to repair it myself (LCD Screen)....Not sure if I got right... not working right...hoping to land exact camera at a cheap price and continue on my learning experience...

The Nikon coolpix has just a super sharp lens and takes a large image with extremely good image quality. It works well indoors with the flash and gets good life out of the batteries. Outdoor photos are sharp and clear. It will do a fairly good closeup. It is a tiny bit on the bulky side. It’s not going to fit in your pocket. There are a lot of settings if you want to get creative and it can also be setup as a point and shoot. Overall a lot of camera for the money. I’m happy with it.
I wanted a small but powerful camera which this camera is. It has a 15X lens. It takes really good pictures. It fits in your pocket and has an automatic lens cover. The Nikon battery is long lasting. Haven't used it much but I really like it so far. A real bargain at about $100.
I really liked my Nikon S 8100, but it would not focus well in much zoom was used. This S 9050 model doesn't like to focus in any conditions. I just don't understand it. I'm so glad that I switched from the 10X S 8100 to the Panasonic Lumix ZS 19. Now I'm spoiled. The Panasonic is an actual "point and shoot" camera. Then I find this N.I.B. Nikon S 9050 at a pawn shop for next to nuthin and thought I'd try it out. I can't even sell it to one of my friends because it would ruin the friendship. I might be able to give it to my Brother in Law as a Christmas gift though. Yeah, Hey Bobby, I got you a nice camera. It's too bad, because I like Nikon usually. Just NOT THIS Nikon.
I am totally loving this camera!!!! It get's the job done, love the zoom, the compact size, just love it. That' it, that's all.
Really nice little camera. More features than I need. The manual is 250 pages. Camera is a bit larger than some, probably due to the 15.5x zoom
