Buy itThe COOLPIX P90 is a high performance compact camera that enables photographers to take advantage of an extreme 24x ultra telephoto Zoom lens. From a 26mm wide angle to a jaw dropping 624mm telephoto the COOLPIX P90 will astonish and delight even the most seasoned of photographers. High performance operation includes shooting 45 consecutive shots at up to 15 frames per second. Capture images with a 12 megapixel sensor and Nikon EXPEED technology the COOLPIX P90 will redefine the high performance compact camera category. Nikon's smarter approach to digital imaging technology. From image capture to processing, Nikon's comprehensive EXPEED digital imaging concept encompasses the entire picture-taking operation. EXPEED is much more than a processing engine; it is a revolution in digital photography. 4 way VR Image Stabilization minimizes the effects of camera shake for sharper results Nikon's Optical VR image stabilization compensates for the effects of camera shake by moving the image sensor. Motion Detection automatically detects a moving subject and adjusts shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for camera shake and subject movement. High ISO 64001 capability helps give you sharper results when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects. Nikon's original Best Shot Selector automatically takes up to 10 shots while the shutter is pressed and saves the sharpest image. 3-inch vari-angle LCD adds greater framing freedom Given the versatile reach and range of the 24x zoom lens, you're bound to find yourself wanting to shoot from the hip, or from a higher angle. That's why, in addition to its electronic viewfinder, the COOLPIX P90 features a huge, bright 3-inch high-resolution vari-angle LCD with anti-reflection coating. The LCD can be tilted upward as much as 90 degrees, or 45 degrees downward.

I'm an amatuer photographer and at the time I bought this one I was looking for something inexpensive with decent quality that was easy to learn on. That's exactly what I got and more! I love this thing although it would be great if it had more analog and manual settings but aside from that its a great camera. Picture quality is awesome, zoom is amazing and the tilting LCD screen is the best thing ever, I use it all the time. Worth buying this one if you're looking for something semi professional and very easy to use.

When I was going to France this last year, I was in the market for a new camera. I wanted a long zoom and a decent quality. I work at a retail store so I played with some cameras. I played with them (Kodaks, Canons, etc) I had a bad experience with Olympus so I didn't want to go back with them. I was flipping through a flyer and I saw this camera. So I went over to get it but it was unavailable. I decided to take a shot and get it. I have never been happier with this camera. I can take far away pictures with great quality but I can also take close ups of flowers with near SLR quality. The picture quality in any picture is great. Some complain about 24x photos inside...thats because thats not the use for it. I have taken pictures of flowers, orioles, the moon, and a lot of other things. I would invest in this camera and an 8 GB memory card. You'll need it. The wide angle lens is a HUGE plus.
The only cons to this camera is: its kinda big and heavy. There is also no sepia built into this camera.
All in all, worth the investment. I have had nothing but luck with this camera and I love it.

What a great camera. I had a professional Nikon and finally sold it. I just could never quite take that perfect picture with it. With this one, you have the option to point and shoot or use it like you would a pro. Can't ask for more and the price beats the Digital SLR cameras.

I had read many negative reviews of the P90 and I was a bit wary of purchasing one, but my P80 was recently stolen and I couldn't find another to replace it with so I went with the P90. I am really happy with the upgrade. The p90 takes excellent, sharp photos both indoors and out. I have had no trouble with blurry images of poor quality as other reviews have stated. I press the shutter button once to focus on the area I plan to shoot and then again when I am ready to snap the picuture. I am no professional and my pictures with the P90 have turned out with just as good quality as DSLR cameras can take. The only thing lacking w/ the P90 vs. a DSLR camera is the shutter lag, but again...the P90 is a point and shoot camera NOT a DSLR. I like the tilt LCD, and the ease of use. The image format is compatible with my Adobe software and that's all I need. I love taking pictures of my kids when they are playing and I have captured many wonderful shots of them. This is an excellent camera for the novice photographer who doesn't understand all of the tech specs of shooting with a DSLR camera. The camera is light and easy to travel with vs. taking the DSLR on a family vacation with all its lenses and extra weight. The rechargeable battery lasts a long time even with heavy shooting and I have a spare so that I can re-charge one and have it ready when the one in the camera runs down. This is one advantage that Nikon has over other super zoom cameras. I don't like having to use the rechargeable AA or AAA batteries because they just don't last as long as the Nikon rechargeable battery does. The Nikon batteries also take up less space in your camera bag. I am very satisfied with this camera! As for the negative reviews, maybe the camera was defective or maybe some setting wasn't adjusted right. I don't know. All I know is ... I'm very glad that I went ahead and purchased this great camera and didn't let the negative reviews that I read put me off! This one is definitely a KEEPER!

I had never owned a Nikon before but I thought I would try this before moving on to a DSLR and boy was I disappointed. I bought the camera in January and since then it's gone back to Nikon for repair not once but twice for the same problem--the battery will not stay charged. I bought a new battery and new charger and that did not fix the problem. Nikon customer service was awful they said that they cannot get me a new camera until after they have had to repair it THREE times. The picture quality was worse than my small kodak that I carry in my purse and the flash would always get stuck. I am definitely not buying any Nikon products and was very disappointed in the way their so called customer service handled my complaints.
