Nikon Coolpix L820
By Brian Jones
Nikon’s Coolpix L series is aimed at beginners and those familiar with cameras alike. The L820 digital camera produces sharp pictures at 16 MP, even from far away with the amazing 30x optical zoom. On the opposite end of the spectrum, you can focus on objects 2 inches from the lens with macro mode. Even if you’re not sure which scene mode to select, this camera features an auto mode that will set the best scene mode for you. Smart portrait technology focuses clearly on faces, fixes red eyes, and detects smiles for the best shot. With 19MB of built-in memory, you don’t always have to have a memory card handy to take some pictures. For around $250.00, everyone can be an excellent photographer with this Nikon camera.
