Summary: Forget close ups!
Review: I purchased this camera on the recommendation of a camera store owner because of some special lens it supposedly has. It doesn't take any better pictures than other cameras I have owned and it is sooo difficult to get it to focus on anything! I had a baby recently and most of my early pictures of her are completely blurred because of this camera's inability to focus, especially close up. I'm going to return it and trade it for a Pentax which always takes close ups well. I agree with the shutter release delay everyone else is having a problem with also.

Summary: nikon 140 is a "not ready to take picture camera too")
Review: I recently looked through your comments and decided on a Nikon despite the one comment about it being not ready to take shots. So, I got the Nikon 140 (very similar to the 120). I agree completely with the person who wrote about the 120 missing all of his shots. I tried the 140 at a graduation. I missed so many shots cause it couldn't focus. Another complaint - even when it did focus, the shutter delay was so extreme that the kid had left the podium before the shot was taken. I got lots of pictures of kids walking away from the podium. I'm going to look at the Pentax the other reviewer mentioned and the Minolta 150. The Nikon is going back to the store ASAP. I haven't even seen the pictures it takes but was so frustrated using it that I really don't even care how they turned out. I missed almost every shot I tried for anyway.

Summary: Great for a beginner
Review: I'm a beginning photographer and I wasn't quite ready to buy a manual camera yet, but I wanted a quality camera. This camera came highly recommended from several sources, and so I decided to give it a try. Unlike some of the other reviewers, I have had no trouble with it and I have never experienced the problems that they described. I have taken some wonderful pictures with this camera and I do recommend it. It has gotten me ready to upgrade to a manual SLR 35mm camera.

Summary: Disappointed
Review: In spite of the ED glass lens, which is supposed to render superior colors, this camera is not any good. It seems unable to focus properly, except for when the infinity focus option is selected. Also, most shots from a couple of test rolls came out overexposed, even under unchallenging lighting conditions. Aesthetics and ergonomics are nice. Controls are intuitive and easy, but what good do they do on a camera that is otherwise useless? Yes, I know it is not an F4 but my advice is to look elsewhere. I thought I was going to replace my Olympus Stylus Epic. No way.

Summary: Nikon Lite Touch 120
Review: Just bought the camera, takes photos that are good as anything made by anyone, really cool camera, simple, well done, and beautifully designed, results really blew me away. The lens is ED, and it shows, this is a keeper. Just operating it, is fun, its very quiet and smooth as silk. Whatever you want to do, I think this camera will do it very well, cannot praise it enough. Have had many cameras in my lifetime, this is about one of the best and you dont go broke buying it, lots of applause to Nikon for the job they did one the Lite Touch 120.

Summary: Easy to use with average results
Review: Overall an average camera. I would expect more from a trusted name like Nikon. At times, photos come out over-exposed. Generally, images are sharp and clear. Camera is light-weight and very easy to operate. Camera must be held still to get the sharpest photos. Sometimes daylight shots come out grainy. A good camera if your expectations are not too high.

Summary: FORGET TAKING GOOD PICTURES!
Review: This camera is the worst! I had a Pentax for years and was "sold" on this model at the store. Big mistake. Forget having crisp closeups except once every 14 or so photos. If you want big shots where the focus is on nothing this is the camera for you. I'm trading this one in for another Pentax IQZoom. Don't buy it - you'll regret it. It's so slow you'll miss some of those priceless "don't miss" moments.

Summary: Great little p&s camera
Review: This camera was recommended to me by my brother, who is a hobby photographer. He knew I didn't want to spend lots of money on an SLR camera and a bunch of lenses and accessories. It has turned out to be a great buy!The pictures turn out great! You can really tell the difference that the ED glass makes. This camera has a shutter speed down to 2 seconds... nice for shooting night scenes on a tripod. The viewfinder is very clear and accurate. Battery life is great, even if you play with the zoom a lot. I get about 12 rolls of 24 exposures on each lithium CR123. There are a few features I don't use, such as panorama mode and time/date stamp. Also, there is an infrared remote available for about (dollar amount). My last camera was an Olympus Stylus. This one edges it out slightly on image quality. I highly recommend this camera.

Summary: Great Quality with Compact Size
Review: This is really cool camera I had never used before. I used 400 Kodac film to develop and I had took many places and many weather conditions. Every shot was fine and great. It's terrafic state of art creature of Nikon. If you would like to take a photos of your children with Nikon-quality, this is most nice choice, I think. P. S. Use 400 film.. It's important..... from the professional
