nikon coolpix
more of what makes nikon heads and shoulders above all other camera companies - well thought out and organized - excellent photo quality - good battery life and very compact - another great value and an excellent addition to our lives

same lense problem
We loved this camera. It's a great size and was great for our trip to Italy. But it slowly died due to the common "lens cover error" that so many are also commenting on. It would do that sometimes and then it got to the point where I can't turn the thing on anymore. We had it for 4 years, so maybe I shouldn't complain. But I am going to spend less money this time, knowing that these things just don't last.

Rave review, but...
This is a GREAT camera. I bought it for my wife to carry around. She is not a gadget geek, but she is nuts about this camera, and will show it off to anyone who will listen. The stylus and drawing feature is really great, and she uses that all the time. When she shops for clients, she takes a picture of the product in the store, and then scribbles the price and some notes on the image with the little stylus. It is very handy.

The reason it gets 4 stars instead of an enthusiastic 5 is the lens cover is defective and we're having to repair the camera after only about a month of use. Also, the battery life seems to be erratic - sometimes we'll get well over a hundred shots on one charge, and sometimes less than a day.

I'd also highly recommend (insist) that you purchase a case for this camera to protect the display and keep it from getting turned on inadvertantly. Nikon's model works pretty well.
