Pros: economy of digital with images = to film
Cons: no through the lens viewing at eye piece
After being a somewhat avid photographer and believing that my Minolta 7000i was still adequate, I must admit I was wrong. My son in Alaska sent me this camera as a belated Father's Day gift. Am I pleased, ***** and more so!
First surprise THE...

Amazingly Functional Design, Great Pictures

by Fumanku , Aug 21 '00
Pros: Great Quality, Sturdy Design
Cons: AF slow, loud, battery life is so-so
The Nikon Coolpix 990 was part of the first crop of 3 Megapixel cameras released on the market. Others in the group include the Sony DSC-S70 (See my earlier review.) and the Canon S20. I've used the Sony S70 for several months now, and been very...

Best Digita Camera I have used

by mhasan1 , Nov 01 '00
Pros: Excellent image quality
Cons: Too big in size, awkward swivel lens
No doubt, this is one of the best consumer digital cameras that are out there. The camera features both auto and manual modes. I have mostly used the auto function-- and sure it takes exceptionally sharp pictures in different light conditions. I have...

Pros: Many features, flexible use, good pictures
Cons: Dirty optical view finder, poor battery life

Cons: Relatively weak built-in flash, carrying case not included
My previous digital camera was a refurbished Sony DSC-F1, which has served me very well for more than two years. I loved it for its small size and ease of use. However, its maximum resolution is 640x480...inadequate compared to today's standard. I needed...

One Flaw Ruins It

by lancehomer , Apr 06 '01
Pros: Excellent high resolution photos with 35mm camera functions
Cons: Unbearable red-eyes and broken zoom in first month
Before buying a digital camera I read reviews from many different sites. I decided to get the Coolpix 990 because of all its features and high ratings. After taking a few pictures with it using a flash, I noticed that everyone ALWAYS has red-eyes. I...

This ones on the right track

by brandonf , Oct 04 '00
Pros: Resolution, Magnesium Body, USB Interface
Cons: Small Zoom, Poor Light Collection, Short Battery Life, Type 1 CF Slot

OH MY GOD is all you will say when you see it

by Eazy_E712G , Dec 30 '00
Pros:
Cons:
My needs in a digital camera were simple, or so I thought. I take a lot of photos, 10-15 or more rolls at a time, which can get very expensive when you take into account the cost of film, developing and printing. It is also time consuming, as I scan the...

An Excellent Camera

by whatsleep , Aug 04 '00
Pros: image quality, features
Cons: size
Upon realizing that the only reason I got film developed was in order to scan the prints into the computer, I realized it was time to get a Digital Camera. Most important to me in my decision was the quality of the images that could be captured by the...
