    Great camera, great price.

    Posted by Romadoll101 on December 3, 2018

    I bought this as a replacement for other COOLPIX camera I lost. I got this model in red. It takes beautiful photos and I can download them wirelessly to my phone and table. Sorry I lost my other camera, but I really love this B500 model!

    Very easy to operate, excellent value

    I used to use non-digital SLR cameras, had a couple of point and shot digital, but wanted to upgrade. Had no problem learning to use all functions in the first couple of hours. Do order additional memory card at the same time.

    Worst Camera Ever

    Posted by SJReidhead on April 4, 2018

    I have been dealing with cameras and photography since 1981. This is the WORST camera ever. Don´t waste your money on it. It is impossible to access or download photos from it. I´ve tried everything, and I know what I´m doing.

    Great for beginners!

    Posted by halandangel on March 22, 2018

    This was my first Camera purchase after using my mothers a Bit to much and realizing my full interest in photography. I knew very little about cameras, But this was very straight forward to understand and learn, as well as very versatile. Ive used it for some Macro, Some family and pets, Would very much recommend.

    Great Beginner Camera!

    Posted by Jeni on February 16, 2018

    This was the camera that got me hooked into the Nikon family. It does a great job if you´re looking for a cheaper camera for travel etc. I personally used it for equine photography and the odd time portraits. It was a rare occurence to have blurred subjects or unfocused photos. I definitely recommend this camera to anyone who would like to try out photography.

    B500 very nice upgade for beginners!

    Posted by PhotoDad on January 15, 2018

    Bought this for Christmas gift for my daughter. The wifi setup to the app was easy and works well...nice remote feature. My daughter took some really wonderful pictures of our dog playing in the snow...the bright snow did not wash out the pics...I would definitely recommend for a beginner photo enthusiast as a bridge to DSLR. The fact that it runs on AA batteries is for my daughter who will undoubtedly forget to charge her batt.

    At first it´s great, but then many problems

    Posted by danielle1234098 on January 12, 2018

    I got this model for my birthday a couple of months ago. At first, it was perfect. However, after I had used it 4 or 5 times, a message was displayed on the screen that read ´´battery exhausted.´´ I wasn´t really sure what that meant..I looked up how to fix it and nothing worked. After a few days everything was normal again.or so i thought. Whenever I tried to turn the flash on, the screen would instantly go black. I had had enough of these problems that I couldn´t figure out so I took it to Best Buy and exchanged it for a new one. Now, I am anxious to use the camera but the same problems are still occurring. I would not recommend this camera, it has cost me too many visits to the store and I have not gotten my money´s worth.

    Kewlpix my new fave camera!

    Posted by ipoczy on January 7, 2018

    Loving this new camera upgrade from a Panasonic Lumix. It takes awesome pictures just witha click of a button. Definitely not an expert when it comes to taking pictures, but its very easy to use and the app SnapBridge is easy also. A good camera for a beginner to intermediate user.
