Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Nikon Coolpix 700 digital camera gives photographers high digital quality with point-and-shoot-style controls for easy use. Although not the most technologically advanced of the Nikon Coolpix family (two later models have since been released), the Nikon Coolpix 700 gives you an array of high-powered features at a more modest price than its followers. It includes a 2.11-megapixel, 0.5-inch CCD and Nikkor lens for photographic image quality at print sizes up to 11 inches x 14 inches; four-step digital zoom capabilities; a high-speed continuous shooting mode (up to 2 frames per second); as well as fully automatic focus, flash, metering, and white balance.

The Nikon Coolpix 700's high-resolution 1.8-inch LCD display allows real-time viewing of shots and makes for easier playback. Images can be saved in uncompressed TIFF or one of 3 JPEG compression modes for different storage and downloading options.

Included with the Nikon Coolpix 700 are an 8 MB removable CompactFlash memory card capable of storing a maximum of 128 images, Nikon software, lens cap, soft case, strap, serial cable, batteries, and more. Nikon also issues a 1-year warranty on this item.

4.0 out of 5 stars A pretty great digital camera, January 6, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Nikon Coolpix 700 2MP Digital Camera (Electronics)

What's impressed me the most about this camera is the quality of the pictures, which, after all, is what you buy a camera for in the first place (unless all you want is snapshots). Spectacular resolution--on a good monitor, virtually indistinguishable from that of a printed photo. Not so hot for moodily lit shots--keep your SLR for that. The camera fits into the hand well (though it's shaped for right-handers only) and is fairly easy to use. It really eats batteries, though, so buy an AC adapter for it. Also, the included software is somewhat weak and buggy. Download Cameraid from the Net, and use that, instead. Happy shutterbuggin'!

4.0 out of 5 stars You can't go wrong, January 5, 2000

Thoroughly pleased with the Nikon Coolpix 700. I was shooting within minutes of taking it out of the box. More features and effects than I will ever need and the photos are great. At just under 10 ounces, this camera is a pleasure to hold and use. I highly recommend it, particularly for not so serious camera buffs or for family use.

I received this camera as a gift. It's my first experience with a digital camera, and it's been great! The reference manual (provided on CD) is easy to follow and extremely helpful. The camera also comes with HotShots, software for importing and editing pictures. The camera is lightweight and easy to use. My only complaint is how quickly the batteries die, but from what I understand, this happens with most digital cameras. A great camera all around!
