I downloaded the manual from Nikon's site and perused it first before starting the camera.
First off I put the energizer batteries in the drawer and put in two Energizer Lithium batteries. The setup menu lets you indicate which type of batteries you're using.
Then I installed a 32 gig Class 10 Ultra SanDisk card and formatted it...so far so good.
Set my language, date and time, picture size and a few other settings. All of this was pretty straightforward.
I then went around and snapped some early May scenery of SWVA and the local mountains. Nice crisp looking pictures.
I then had two hours to kill so I trekked off towards Mt. Rogers (highest point in VA) and snapped more pictures. Response time for the pictures was quick and consistent...I experienced no lag.
All in all I took 40 pictures w/o any problems.
I then brought the camera back home, removed the card, placed it into my card reader and was tremendously pleased at the results.
It maybe the best $49 I've ever spent on anything at least recently.
It takes 2 AA batteries and that's a plus for me since I have many sets of rechargable AA batteries already handy for this camera. Common SD cards are used in this camera, a nice plus also.
I really have not found anything negative about this camera yet except it seems a bit pokey between photos...slight shutter delay/lag. But overall, this camera is a great little compact digital camera and should take decent photos for me when I need them. I gave this camera 4 of 5 stars mostly because of the slight shutter delay/lag I have had with this camera.
The battery lid of the first camera broke off quite easily.
The second camera I drowned last month as I hadn't properly sealed the housing :-(.
I have found my third, used Nikon coolpix L30 on amazon. It is easy to use and works on rechargeable AA batteries.
The camera is easy to use with lots of pre-set options as well as possibility to change the diaphragm.
All I received was a camera wrapped in bubblewrap. No box, no instructions, nothing!! I was very
disappointed. It seems to be working fine at this point, but without a box or warranty, I don't have
anything to backup my purchase. I feel there should have been a better explanation of exactly
what I was receiving.

Easy to handle and easy switching between camera and video mode. will recommend to buy an extra battery, as we need to remove battery for charging. Easy to transfer data. Night photos are also decent
