Bought this camera for my 70+ mom's first Europe trip. She never used a digital before so I wanted one with easy features, and this one is it.
The camera's on screen tutorial is a great help, and the manual is easy to understand. The screen and fonts are large enough to see clearly. Her favorite feature is the AUTO MODE, just point and shoot. I made sure to give her plenty of extra AA batteries, as it does not come with a charger. USB cables provided allow easy hook up to computer. Best price I found was on Amazon. Thanks!

the quality of the pics are decent, the camera performs fairly well under low light conditions, which is a good thing. I was looking for a AA battery camera, and SD memory slot, and this is the best camera I could find with those two coniditons for a reasonable price.

I wanted a camera that was easy to use, lightweight and has the basic features for everyday use.
This was perfect with easily navigable menu, most common shooting modes that one is likely to encounter and the best part was the price. Its definitely one of the best at this price!
I have used it for both indoor and outdoor shooting and the pictures have come out perfect. I don't like to use the flash at all as I do not like to disturb say a group of people in a party by the blinding flash and also I prefer the natural light, and this does a very good job of it.

I have never been more pleased with a Nikon camera as I have been with the CoolPix L19. It's a very easy camera to get used to.I am a novice,so I'm sure there are a lot of good cameras out there but being my third camera I am delighted with this one. Thanks Nikon.

While I have only had the camera a few days, I wanted to take a time out to show my satisfaction for this product. This is a fantastic point and shoot camera! It's not the high tech sophisticated camera for the more experienced people interested in photography, but it is a quality product. I read the manual and found out all the little in and outs and special features for this camera and there were a great many! I spent most of a day testing out the different settings and taking photos. The quality of the pictures was fantastic, the camera was easy to use and I could not be happier with my purchase!

So far I love this little camera and I still haven't learned all the functions. Easy to use, takes great pictures and small movies. Screen is larger than the kodak digital camera I have which I find very helpful.
Only con: The recommended case (leather)I ordered, for an extra $4 was too small for the camera.

camera is a great starter camera for digital dummies. works fine, love the auto smile shoot feature.

Takes great pictures. But the slightest little mishap will cause a "lens error" and the repair costs as much or more than the camera. After owning it for 7 mos., it was on a dresser, @ 3 ft off the ground, and fell onto a carpeted bedroom floor. Never worked again. Several people online experienced the same problem. Nikon won't cover it under warranty either. Needless to say, my replacement camera will not be a Nikon

I have always been a Nikon fan. This is the latest one i bought for my mother in law. Its compact but easy to use, different scene modes, edit pictures, perfect for first time users . I would have preferred to get a rechargeable battery with the set but its been a really great gift for her.

For under $100, I believe this is the best camera you can get. I bought it replace a horrible camera that I'd had for about a year. I only paid a few dollars more for this one and it's twice the camera.
It's easy to use and takes wonderful photos even in auto mode. It also has many different settings and adjustments to get the perfect photo every time. In addition to taking beautiful photos, the L19 takes great video with sound, the quality is as good if not better than the flip camcorders.
I was a little concerned about batterie life when I first recieved it, the included batteries only lasted a day but I replaced them with better ones and they've lasted well.
As a long time fan of the Nikon brand, I feel this is a worthy addition to their product line. I would highly recommend it to anyone that is just starting out with digital photography or wants a fairly small and easy camera to shoot quick snapshots.
