Poor picture quality.

You will produce better pictures with a $10 disposible camera. I will give this garbage zero star if that option was available

Model Reviewed: Nuvis 125i

Strength:

Very easyto use.

Weakness:

Photo quality is dreadful, very grainy pictures and often really out of focus. The case is also badly designed as it tends to break at the point where the wrist cord is attached.

Very very disapointed. From a brand such as Nikon I was expecting a good camera. OK out of a roll of 40 APS shots it may give 2-3 OK pictures, but on the whole it is very poor. In particular it give dreadful panoramic shots. Though this could all be down to the APS film. Basically I get better pictures on my £50 unbranded 35mm cam.

Customer Service

n the UK very good. The first one Ihad, bought in canada, broke withing a month or two of owning it. I sent it back to Nikon UK who replaced it in under 2 weeks. However the replacement has since also broken, again the case, andis now out oa warranty.

Picture quality. Zoom isn't great.

Very poor picture quality. I was suprised that Nikon would sell a camera that represented their brand so poorly. I will never again own a Nikon. Most disposable cameras take better pictures than this camera does.

Strength:

APS - easy loading film
Functionally easy to use
Compact size

Weakness:

Horrible pictures!
Colors were washed out
Pictures were grainy
Details were lost on shots in the best of light.

I am extremely disappointed in this camera. I bought it right before a big trip to San Francisco...and out of 90 pictures, maybe 5-10 are keepers.
I love idea of APS...but this camera has left me with a very negative experience.
I ony wish I could get my money back from Nikon.

Nikon Canada Customer Service

CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRAP....This camera is absolute garbage. I purchased this camera thinking that it was a Nikon and had a lot of great features. It has let me down greatly. Especially when it stopped taking pictures just 6 months in. I was treated crappy by Nikon Canada who blamed my for the cameras problems, with no acceptable reasoning why??? The do not seem to stand behind this product period.....very dissappointing from a company with such a reputation like Nikon.
I fought tooth and nail to get a different model from Nikon and after 4-5 conversations I was offered the Light Touch 90 35mm camera that has performed much better.

Strength:

This is a good camera. After reading these other reviews, I was expecting the worse, but was elated when my results proved otherwise. Detail was particullary sharp at the wider angle settings - you could see the very finest details and textures. I tried a number of different lighting conditions - it handled all situations beautifully! The phots were all of the most professional calibre. I submit these other reviewers try a different processing facility - I believe that's their problem - NOT this camera.

Weakness:

Telephoto shots not as sharp as wide angle views

Great camera at a moderate price

Strength:

Small, cute looking

Weakness:

Most of all-- poor picture quality
Poor build quality --fragile looking

I have used many Nikon SLRs and am still using N8008s. But this little APS camera is a big disppointment. Since the other one is big and heavy, I felt this cute little one would be a good companion to carry for travel. The picture quality is horrible -- most of time, out of focus and poor resolution -- especially with ASA200 film. I thought the film was so I used ASA100 most of time. But still I lost many important picture moments. I sent back this one for repair and this guy is still sick -- the lens cover is not fully closed and the control panel is blinking. I lost confidence on Nikon products!

Customer Service

I sent out for repair with battery included.
After the repair the battery is missing.

None because I blindly trusted Nikon products
