Build quality, Picture quality, AAA batteries, Position of controls
Weakness:
none This camera was GIVEN to me by a friend who hadn't used it for 9 yrs. Thus the need to have the battery holder replaced. It came with a Nikon 50mm 1.8 lens & i have since gotten a 28-70mm for it. I have had it for 4 months & ran 15-20 rolls of film through it without a hitch. Like it SO much i plan on getting another when funds allow. Don't SEE the need for AF until i get half blind.! Customer Service Had battery holder replaced & camera cleaned by local camera shop. $15.00 Similar Products Used: OM 88 |

Strength:
auto-load,motor-wind,DX code
Weakness:
rubber cover on M-D part comes loose Good,easy to use camera. It uses other Nikon lenses. It has a very solid feel to it and I really like the MD unit except I have to reglue the cover on it after every couple of rolls. The picture quality is good even when used on one of the 2 program modes. Customer Service N/A never had a problem Similar Products Used: FM2,Pentax MX,Miranda EE |

Strength:
All Nikon mount lenses work on this camera. Uses AAA or AA batteries for super convenience. True Nikon "F" style layout.
Weakness:
Only 3...DOF and the tripod mount...definatly don't like that~ Plus, there is no remote shutter release! This is a camera that is easy to use and still get great pictures! Professional camera that the beginner can use. Standard batteries make this camera a great replacement for the Nikon FM (which doesn't need batteries to work) Solid and durable. Have dropped mine many times and it survived better than my FM! Plus they are quite cheap to pick up a used one today (got another one on eBay for $50!) Customer Service Never had to send mine in! Similar Products Used: Grew up on a Nikon FM (beautiful pictures) and Nikon FM-10 plus various digital and Point and shoot... |

Flim advance is loud. Tripod mount on side of bottom plate, not the best. No port for cable release. Just a great realiable camera that continues to produce great photo's. Customer Service N/A Similar Products Used: - |

Model Reviewed:
N2000
Strength:
Sturdy construction in general.
Weakness:
Nikon flash attachment I had broke at the tension adjustment point quite easily. Bought an aftermarket flash and so far it works great. Great camera that was expensive when purchased but can now be found for ~$100. Customer Service Never needed to call. Similar Products Used: Many 35mm automatic cameras but few zoom 35mm. |
