Rating: Summary: nikon 885 impression Review: this camera takes wonderful, striking photos, good color, excellent macro mode, compact design. i haven't spent enough time yet studying the modes and the quality of auto makes me put it off. it is a battery and memory hog. the 16 mg card that comes with it is not even close to being enough, i would recommed a 64 at least, 128 would be preferred, or both. a battery charger and one at least rechargeable battery is a must, two batteries would be preferable for more than casual shooting and to keep up with more memory. as my fourth digital camera, it is impressive and will last me i hope until there is a digital slr with 4+ megapixels for around $1000. shop around for the best price of course.
Rating: Summary: Great value for Money Review: This is my first Digital Camera and I am glad I got this after doing a lot of Digtial Camera Research. The clarity and color balance of the pictures are really good. The only annoying fact was that I have to reset the date everytime I change the battery.
Rating: Summary: Not Happy! Review: User unfriendly and very difficult to use. Not intuitive and found that it takes pictures on a hit and miss basis. When shutter is depressed, flash goes off, and sometimes it takes the picture and sometimes it doesn't. We are long time Nikon product users and are VERY disappointed in this product. This is a first for us because we have been pleased with the many other Nikon products we own. Pictures are of lesser quality than other digital cameras we own with less megapixels.
Rating: Summary: 885 Has Significant Software Problems Review: We found that the 885 software was, in the end, impossible to load onto our Windows 98 computer. We had multiple "blue screens of death" and printer conflicts. For a fuller description of some of the issues, please see the forums postings in www.dpreview.com concerning similar issues with the 995. And, the Nikon web site is not particularly helpful. The camera itself seemed to work ok . . .
Rating: Summary: dial mode conked out after a year of usage Review: when i decided to get a digital camera, i went to the camera expert and that for me was NIKON. it was april 2003 when i purchased my first digital camera NIKON COOLPIX 885. after a year of using it, the dial mode just conked out and won't function anymore. i am very disappointed, i had to ship my camera to the only service center in my country. I shouldered the shipment plus the replacement spare part which is going to cost me $100 plus. it has been two months with follow ups in between and i was told by the service center the spare part has not arrived from Japan yet.
of course, after only a year of using this camera, i feel i did not get my money's worth.
i expected a lot from nikon but they failed me. for my next digital camera purchase, i will get PENTAX, CANON or SONY instead
Rating: Summary: Simply the best Review: Wow what a neat compact digital camera ! Easy to use for any beginner , pictures that I took came out fantastic !!!!
