Nikon Coolpix L4 review
The £90 Coolpix L4 is the least expensive of Nikon's low-end L-series line of digital cameras. The L4 has a small, 4-megapixel sensor, a 3x optical zoom lens and a handful of scene preset modes but few high-end settings. Though slow and not very versatile, it produces some pretty good pictures for its budget price Read more

Nikon Coolpix P50 review
The Nikon Coolpix P50 has an old-fashioned, boxy feel with a helpful chunky grip. It's a solidly built, easy-to-use, nuts-and-bolts kind of camera. It offers a surprisingly high degree of control over image settings, and as a result its photos are excellent quality for the price Read more

Nikon Coolpix S52c review
We've often wondered why cameras don't come equipped with wireless transfer as standard, especially as Bluetooth and, increasingly, Wi-Fi are ubiquitous in mobile phones. The Nikon Coolpix S52c bucks this trend -- it's a 9-megapixel snapper that allows for wireless email, upload and back-up of images Read more

Nikon Coolpix S210 review
The Nikon Coolpix S210 does exactly what it says on the tin. It's small and compact; it won't leave you with an emptied wallet; and it takes decent pictures. Start shooting and you'll find it focuses quickly and your shots come out with well-balanced colours Read more

Nikon Coolpix L3 review
The Nikon Coolpix L3 is the midrange member of Nikon's simple, inexpensive L-series digital cameras. The 5-megapixel camera sports a 3x optical zoom lens, a handful of useful scene modes and a small price tag -- and this little shooter produces good-looking images for the price Read more

Nikon Coolpix L19 review
The inexpensive, 8-megapixel Coolpix L19 is an unpretentious and sturdy compact camera that's well suited to the rough and tumble of family use. The resolution is modest and you get very little manual control, but, in a perverse kind of way, it's a very likeable camera Read more
