Nikon Coolpix L20 Point-and-Shoot Camera Review - PCWorld

 

Great image quality for the price

A bit bulky

For value, ease of use, looks, and image quality, the Coolpix L20 is one of the best bargain point-and-shoots we've seen.

Nikon COOLPIX L20

 

The Nikon COOLPIX L20 is a 10 Megapixel compact with a 3.6x optical zoom and a 3in LCD screen. It's aimed at point-and-shoot photographers and priced at the budget end of the compact market - indeed it's one of the cheapest big-brand cameras you can buy.

Inexpensive, attractive and well-made ; Very simple to use ; Fast flash with long range ; AA batteries

No image stabilisation ; Slow to start up ; Limited shooting information on screen ; No manual ISO setting

Review: Nikon Coolpix L20 digital camera

 

Nikon's Coolpix L20 is a great representative of a growing category of cameras: very affordable, easy-to-use point-and-shoots with surprisingly stellar image quality and a bit of fashion sense.

Although the 10-megapixel Coolpix L20’s image stabilization system is software based, it did a great job of capturing clear, unblurred images—even when I shook it around vigorously while taking a photo or zoomed in to the maximum capacity of the 3.6x...

Nikon CoolPix L19 and L20

 

Are Nikon's new AA-powered snappers a little bit too easy to use?

The L20 is quite a large camera by compact standards, measuring 96.5 x 61 x 29 mm, although at 185g including batteries and memory card it's lighter than it looks. The L19 is 5g lighter, probably on account of the smaller monitor. The camera has a...

Nikon Coolpix L20

 

Its design is simple,sharp and best suited for outdoor use. This Nikon Coolpix has a large screen and a 3.6x optical zoom.

Good performance outdoors ; Extremely easy to use ; Big 3-inch screen ; 3.6x optical zoom ; Good pricing

Poor low light performance ; Quite limited features

With a large 3-inch screen and a 3.6x optical zoom this would have been an able competitor to models ranked higher in our charts, if only its overall performance was a notch or two higher. Its dedicated button for cycling through Auto, Movie mode and...

Nikon Coolpix L20 review

 

Nikon's Coolpix L20 represents one of the best options we've seen in a growing category of cameras: very affordable, easy-to-use point-and-shoots with surprisingly stellar image quality and a bit of fashion sense.

All in all, the Nikon Coolpix L20 is a very affordable camera that performed very well in our image tests. For value, ease of use, and eye-catching looks, it's one of the best bargain point-and-shoots we've seen so far in 2009. Don't expect the manual...
