I’ve had this camera for about a year now and I’m extremely happy with the purchase. I’ve taken beautiful pictures with it and I’ve had some made into prints as large as 20″ x 30″ with excellent detail and clarity. The camera isn’t quite commercial or professional grade but it does not claim to be so. The lenses that come with it are very high quality – though not top quality. Again, this is exactly what it claims to be.
I have been able to take a variety of pictures in different styles. I take plenty of nature shots and a lot of pictures of my dogs as they run around. I’m to capture them very easily without blurring or streaking in most lighting conditions (low light will definitely affect the autofocus – I like to use the burst mode to get the right pictures of the dogs and that doesn’t go well if the lighting is too dim).
Just to test the camera’s abilities, I took a flash shot of my ceiling fan on high speed and the camera was able to take a great picture of the blades such that the fan does not even appear to be on.
The attenuating screen has proven to be useful on occasion when I want to hold the camera high to get a picture over a crowd or obstacle but in reality I don’t use it too often.
The video quality is very good. If I had a complaint here it would be that the video length is limited to 5 minutes. Also, be sure to use a high speed card or the video might cut out in much less than 5 minutes to catch up to the write.
The auto mode works very well and in most circumstances this camera works beautifully as a point-and-shoot but it also gives full control over shutter and aperture settings. I’ve enjoyed playing with some artistic use of extended shutter times in a pitch black room with a match.
Bottom line: if you are a professional or you are looking to take truly professional pictures then you probably aren’t looking at this camera to begin with. If you are an amateur/consumer level buyer who wants to take beautiful pictures in high resolution then this camera is simply great. (Maybe I should have given it 5 stars.)

The whole package is a great buy except the bag that is shown in the picture is different than what I got and I am very disapointed in the bag, the bag that I got sucks the shoulder strap keeps breaking loose and the whole bag drops to the ground, i would have given five stars but because of the bag I went with four stars.

I love this product with the total package. The camera is superb and the features it offers are great! 2 kit lenses gives plenty of options to capture the right moment. All the accessories come with the package are very good quality and so important for the usage. I absolutely love this..!

I have waited along time for this and I am extremely excited! The Camera is great, love the accessories of the camera and the ease of all the functions included. I used it for the first time (other that practicing) at a Beach Wedding in Destin, Florida last weekend, the results were spectacular, even though I still have alot to learn.
The only thing I have a question about is the Deluxe Accessory Kit…The additional lenses do not fit on the camera…has anyone else had this problem or am I just not getting it? Please advise if you have the same problem or have a answer for me that will help solve the problem!

In my world the cost of this camera is quite a large amount so trusting my money online was a scary thought for me. I was very happy when my order arrived in perfect condition in the time it was estimated. I only have one complaint. The tripod that comes in this package is garbage & you can’t use it anyway. If you read the side of the box it is meant to hold 1.52lbs. Camera with lens weighs 1.82lbs. It’s kinda shady that they sell you something that is useless just to make the package look better. More then likely I would have purchased this package anyway, after months of comparing prices, review reading and saving money this was by far the best deal I found! One more thing to keep in mind for those of you looking at this package. The camera bag that comes in this order is great but if you are to get any other accessories, as I did, you soon run out of space. Now when I go out for a day of shooting I must drag along another bag. I had also hoped the dvd would be more tailored to Nikon but rather it is a guide to many different digital SLR’s.
All in all I am very happy with my camera and would definitely order from Ace Photo Digital again!
