What is your opinion of the Nikon Coolpix, 7.2 Megapixels?
There are a number of reviews out there, most of them very good but there are a few complaints. It definitely has all the features you’re most interested in. The best thought out and complete review I’m seeing is this one: Some things never change. Some other things, such as Nikon’s wireless S-series cameras, change a little bit at a time. Nikon’s new Coolpix S50c is a whole lot like the S7c that the company offered last year.

A Smart car could have 500BHP, but it’s not going to be that beneficial. That aside, the L5 is quite similar to the L1, except of the 7.2 Megapixel CCD capable of spitting out 3072*2304 images which hog about ~1.5MB of your storage space. Also identical to the L1 is the Zoom-Nikkor lens, capable of a 6.3-31.4mm focal range. Modest, but not uncommon for “budget” cameras. Aperture is f/2.9-5.0 and optical zoom i
