Summary: I would never buy a nikon again
Review: 13 months after I purchased this camera, it froze up.
Would cost $147 to repair. The manuel suggest a new a battery,
which didnt do any good. Camera was never dropped or mis-
handled. When it was working it took great pictures. But 13
months!!!!

Summary: What a disappointment
Review: After owning an Olympus Stylus for 6 years, we decided to "upgrade" to the Nikon 140. Wow, were we surprised at the low quality. The camera ikons blinked inappropriately and the pictures came out worse than I ever imagined. The auto focus feature for up close photos looked like the people were hiding behind clouds.

We are now going to try the Minolta 160. They seem to have more features as well.

Summary: Piece of Junk
Review: Had the camera for 6 months. Already has needed to be repaired twice. Repairs take over a month. Poor camera. Poor company.

Summary: High Quality, Beautiful Design
Review: I am so pleased with my purchase last month. The quality of the pictures is superb, sharp and clean, and what makes me most happy is that finally I have found a camera to eliminate the red eye problem! And everything in so elegant design.

Summary: Good Camera
Review: I bought this camera about two years ago whe it was first out .... However the cool design and quality photos have helped me not be upset with the purchase. I drove cross country and backpacked europe and never lost a picture do to the camera. I dropped it once from about four feet onto blacktop and no problems but a little nick and the sand from cannon beach has still not given me problems. This is a very good camera and i would recommend trying nikon out.

Summary: Happy but disappointed at the same time
Review: I bought this Nikon 140ED as a graduation gift for my cousin. The camera is nice and light. Pictures come out nice and clear. It doesn't come with a camera bag, which is rather inconvenient, but that is trivial. Overall, I'm minutely satisfied with the camera. However, I do have a couple disappointments. It doesn't take multiple shots that well. We tried to take 2 or three pictures one after the other, and nothing happens. The camera refuses to take a second picture. We try waiting several seconds, but it is still unresponsive. Another feature of the camera that disappointed me is the flash. The distance of the flash is not as great as I expected it to be. ... For the NIKON name and quality, and that price, the camera usability and flash should exceed those of lesser brands and quality.

Summary: NO RED EYE
Review: I have the Nikon Lite touch Zoom 120 ed AF and it is the best point and shoot I have had in many years. I have a new granddaughter with beautiful eyes and the red eye reduction (which has a solid light prior to flash) really works, not a red eye in any of the photos. It is light weight, very easy to use and the clarity and color of the photos is great. I can not tell you how happy I am with this camera.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great little point and shoot
Review: I haven't tried the camera yet myself, but I did some research on it and wanted to make a comment on the lens. Normally, I prefer point and shoots with lenses that don't exceed 3x, and preferably more like 2x, because with long telephoto range lenses there are just too many optical compromises that must be made, and that affects the sharpness of the lens. However, this lens contains 6 elements in 6 groups, and most importantly, uses plastic aspherical components, a recent innovation in these cameras that is sure to make a difference. The new Minolta Freedom Zoom 125 also has this. I had been considering buying the 120 ED, but depending on the quality of the lens, I may decide to purchase one of these instead. So far I have researched at least 3 dozen different point and shoot cameras, and this one and the 120 ED are in the top 5 out of all the ones I've researched, and I've been pretty thorough in comparing features and performance. One thing I like about the 120, and I'm sure the 140 has it too, is the Panorama mode, which I've enjoyed using in my Fuji Tiara APS camera. Overall, this looks to be a great little camera to take with you anywhere from Nikon, and (along with the 120 ED), is their first important offering in this category.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Fine until the zoom broke
Review: My Nikon Lite Touch 140 was fine until the zoom broke shortly after the 1-year warranty expired. I take care of my camera, so it was not my fault. The $70 bill was disappointing. A little latter the cord snagged a corner and tore open a metal cover, so again I had it repaired at my expense.
