Nikon 7600 Coolpix

The Nikon 7600 Coolpix is another one of the Nikon range that is still selling at close to 4 years old. It has to be included in the point and click category, although its 7 megapixel CCD allows you to take some amazingly detailed shots.

Like other Nikons, it provides a range of scene modes that allow you to instantly set up for most shooting situations. It also adds a new one, Underwater Mode, which with the optional waterproof case, allows to take pictures while snorkeling or scuba diving.

This camera has been criticized for the quality of indoor nighttime pictures but I think this is common to any entry level digital camera. It does make it easy to brighten up dark images and the Nikon in camera Red-eye fix technology works really well. Its d-lighting feature can compensate for uneven lighting conditions and turn a potential throw away shot into a keeper.

Another criticism is excessive battery consumption, another common problem for digitals. Fortunately, rechargeable batteries are cheaper now than when this camera was released and I quite affordable. I recommend Nickel Metal Hydride,(NiMH), for best performance.

All in all, the Nikon 7600 Coolpix is another good option as a starter camera.
