The Coolpix 8700 Nikon joins the 8 megapixel club

byHoward_Creech May 2, 2004
133 Helpfuls 134 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros 8X Nikkor Zoom, 8 megapixel resolution
Cons Cons: Noisy images at ISO 400, AF hunts in low light, weak battery
Recommended it? Yes

Pros Stylish, good quality photos, large memory capacity.
Cons big and clunky, gets an error message a lot
Recommended it? Yes

Cons Not waterproof, victim of high-resolution marketing wars
Recommended it? Yes

A Reason Why

When looking at someone else's opinion, it's good to know where they were coming from in their purchase. I am a hobbyist photographer who owns a Canon EOS Rebel XT an Olympus Stylus 850SW. The Rebel XT is a fantastic camera, however it's portability is rather limited due to it's... Read full review »

I got this camera to replace an old Canon Powershot and could not be happier with my new Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W350 Digital Camera! There are so many great features to this digital camera. The picture quality is sharp and focused so that no detail in the picture is blurry or left out thanks to the... Read full review »
