3.0 out of 5 stars Hard to see Subject, January 10, 2003

This camera comes with a lot of bells and whistles, and is definitely from a great pedigree! However, it takes a lot of effort to compose a shot, as the viewfinder is small and in an awkward position. If you don't look exactly straight through the viewfinder window the image appears black. By the time you have recovered from this, the shot is usually lost. If you are a patient person, or just taking scenery photographs, this would be a great camera for the money. If you are looking for a camera to take pictures of your child, look for a camera with a LARGE (easier to see through) viewfinder. I am returning mine for a camera that I can capture my 1 1/2 year old with before he moves!

If you still want a film camera and don't want to break the bank, this camera is a perfect candidate. Probably the best feature of this Nikon camera that even Nikon's literature won't tell you is the design. No I'm not talking about the way it looks, but rather where things are located. For once a camera maker has located the flash in correct proximity to the lense! Compare this camera to the others when you are in the store (or even online for that matter). The flash is located farther away from the lense than on pretty much all the other makes and models I've looked at. Why is this important you ask? This is one of the few cameras I tried in my quest for a new camera that did not produce garish red-eye. I didn't even need to use the mostly gimmicky red-eye reducing feature to get good pictures. I maybe get one picture per roll that exibits noticeable red-eye... and my house has poor lighting to boot. If the flash on a camera is located far enough away from the lense you don't have the red-eye problem so prevalent in the increasingly tiny cameras you see nowadays. Kudos Nikon! You got it right! Watch... they'll discontinue this design next week or something. Also, the majority of pictures I took were very clear, exhibiting as much, and in some photos, more detail than some of the more expensive, feature laden cameras I tried. I tried Pentax, Olympus, and Canon's new U line. The only issue I have with this camera is the shutter speed (1/200th of a second). If your subject moves quickly, which kids often do... expect some blurred photos. But all the portrait-type shots I took, where the subject was still, were very clear and detailed. Photos taken between 4 to 8 feet were excellent. Photos taken further away or using the zoom extended to max are good, but I wouldn't say excellent, they do appear a little grainy and sometimes out of focus, but I noticed graininess when using the zoom on ALL the little point-n-shoots I tried. Also when using this camera, there is a little circle in the viewfinder used to lock the focus on the subject. This is very accurate, or shall I say touchy, because you need to place the circle EXACTLY on what you want to be in focus. If you place the circle on the subject's shirt, the shirt may be crystal clear, but the person's face a tad out of focus. This is a perfect camera for taking head-n-shoulder group or individual portrait shots. For the price you pay for this, it takes very capable pictures and you don't have to stress about red-eye, mainly because it is built right. I would give this camera 4 stars because of the slower shutter speed, but because it's one of the few cameras I've come across where the lense and flash are laid out correctly, combined with the value pricing, I give it 5 stars.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Nikon One Touch 90s QD Zoom Date 35mm Camera (Electronics)

i got this camera for my b-day and i love it. the macro feature is awesome. those pictures turned out beautiful. the zoom is wonderful and can get really far out. it has a red-eye reducer feater but none of my pictures of people have red-eye even without it. it has a night-time feature that works nicely. all the pictures i take at night came out great.
