Strong performer in both indoor and outdoor shots

Nikon's Coolpix L11 delivers good performance and a sleek design with a budget-friendly price tag. This 6-MP shooter includes a 3X optical zoom, a 2.4-inch LCD, 16 scene modes, in-camera cropping, red-eye removal, and manual controls (including an ISO setting of 800).

Simple and affordable

The virtue of this well-balanced compact camera is its simplicity. You could hand this to anyone and they'd be able to take pictures, video or record a voice memo. They'd know just how to hold it and which button to press to get a picture. Slide the Mode switch and they could take movies. And show them the Scene mode for a Voice Memo and they'd be able to record their thoughts, too. As a bonus, it offers several key Nikon technologies, including Face-Priority Auto Focus, that are really quite useful. It's a nice little package, a real camera, at a very affordable price.

Decent budget camera

The Nikon Coolpix L11 is a decent budget camera, if you can overlook its scant manual controls.

Top-Notch Pictures, Easy to Use

It is a fast, accurate-focusing camera. The 12x zoom is fabulous. It has an Auto mode that evaluates the shooting conditions and subject and chooses the correct scene mode automatically; in my experience it is quite accurate. You can use it as a point and shoot or make your own aperture, shutter or completely manual settings. The high ISO on the camera does a nice job--even my worst shots at 1600 are usable (with a little help from Neat Image). There are almost no ruined shots due to camera fault (photographer fault, yes). The colors are definitely Kodak, but not as saturated as some of their cameras have been. There is plenty of detail in the photographs. The CRV3 battery lasted over 500 shots with frequent flash and LCD use. It is a camera with a great combination of qualities and few faults.

Offers big zoom

A solid, but not exceptional, advanced ultra-zoom camera, Kodak's Z712 IS offers a big zoom backed up by optical image stabilisation. However, its pictures aren't quite as good as some of the competing models on the market.

Offers new technologies

In the increasingly crowded high-zoom, SLR-like digital camera market, consumers are faced with many options. These cameras offer the feel of an SLR in a smaller size with many automatic options. Some manufacturers are offering solid examples and are also constantly improving the category. While the Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS offers some new technologies, like Perfect Touch and their new Color Science Image Processing Chip, its major selling point is the price. If you want a high-zoom camera with a lightweight design at an affordable price, this camera will suffice. However, if you are drawn to this camera because of its "Easy" designation, don’t be fooled, most cameras in this category have a full auto mode and will function as a direct point and shoot. For those interested in the Z712 IS, it will likely serve your needs, it just may not provide as much control or the image quality of its competitors.

Excellent features

There are some excellent features on the Z712 like the good lens, low ISO speeds, 12x optical zoom and panoramic stitch feature and is let down in other places like the Auto mode giving better portrait results than the portrait mode, the use of the wheel to change the ISO annoyed me and the favourites area seems a waste of space. However, if you are after a small SLR style camera with a large zoom and packed with features, then this camera meets those requirements and is worth considering.

Nice superzoom

Kodak's EasyShare Z712 IS is a nice superzoom, especially for the price, though its image quality does falter at higher ISOs.

Sturdy, rugged, basic phone

I've had this phone for a week. It's extremely sturdy, and I look forward to having a phone that doesn't require white-glove treatment while I'm biking, hiking, or out in the rain. The interface is Verizon's basic cheesy design they force onto all their phones--functional but nothing exciting. The reception is pretty good--roughly as good as the Motorola E815 it replaced. It has other features you'd expect from Casio--a stopwatch, countdown timer, and flashlight. If you want to watch TV on your phone, or want a phone that takes photos as good as a real camera, it's a bad choice. But if you want better than a typical fragile phone that breaks if you drop it or take it skiing or kayaking, this is the perfect choice.

Awesome exterior, boring innards

Style-wise, it's an exciting phone. It lives somewhere between steampunk and the latter-day Star Wars designs. It's chunky, sure, but in the way that some of those badass watches are. It's certainly durable, too. I took it kayaking and left it in my pocket. For the record, I never submerged, but I was not afraid of getting splashed. If you keep the ports for charger, battery case and headphone closed, the phone can withstand heavy rain, unbearable humidity, drops from 1.5 meters and dust.
