5.0 out of 5 stars Coolpix P6000 Great Camera
Ace Photo was perfect in getting the unit to me as promised.

I have a Coolpix 5000 so the Coolpix P6000 was similar in function and produces great pictures.

The menu and options are a bit complicated but the point and shoot option produces great pictures for most situations.

The user manual is not very friendly. The print is very...

1.0 out of 5 stars Non-working GPS, No non-Nikon flashes
All in all the Nikon Coolpix P6000 an ok little point-and-shoot.

But I didn't buy it to be an ok little point-and-shoot. I bought it specifically for location scouting and geotagging.

I have owned the P6000 for several months now, and have NEVER managed to get a signal with the GPS.

All in all the Nikon Coolpix P6000 an ok little point-and-shoot.

But I didn't buy it to be an ok little point-and-shoot. I bought it specifically for location scouting and geotagging.

I have owned the P6000 for several months now, and have NEVER managed to get a signal with the GPS.

Now, I figured it wouldn't exactly be a Garmin. And a little spotty coverage would have been tolerable, but to NEVER get a signal is unacceptable.

And an additional frustration: the hotshoe ONLY works with Nikon flashes. It will NOT fire with non-dedicated flashes or wireless flash triggers.

I have tried it with a Pocket Wizard radio slave, Cactus V2s wireless flash trigger, Canon 430EX speedlite, Vivitar 285HV flash, Nikon SB-19, and Nikon SB-600. The only flashes to work were the Nikon SB-19 and SB-600.

The user manual is not very friendly. The print is very small and very light in most paragraph's so it is difficult to read except in very good light. Nikon could improve that issue by producing a larger page manual or using darker print.
