- Nikon Coolpix - watch out for the red eye!
I just bought this camera a month or so ago. I usually use an SLR but I wanted something small I could take out of an evening in my handbag.
The camera takes really nice shots of people and the flash is good, not too stark. However, I have had to edit out the red eye in around 70% of shots which is disappointingly time consuming! Whilst the camera is not bad overall and I'm happy enough with it, I would not recommend it or buy again for this reason.

- Frustrating
I am pleased with the camera itself but didn't appreciate that delivery was from the Netherlands. As such, the instructions, which appear comprehensive, come in 4 languages but none of them are English. In addition, the battery charger power lead comes with a european pin plug. A UK plug was enclosed but you either need to change the plug yourself or use an adaptor. None of this was apparent when I ordered the camera and whilst not a serious problem, it was certainly frustrating.

- 20+ days for delivery
I find Amazon UK really good for buying books, also the Marketplace, deliveries are always on time. Driven by this efficiency I always got from them, I committed a big mistake: I bought this camera from Amazon UK on 21st of August 2008, together with a leathercase and a flashcard. Today is 10th of September 2008, and I still didn't get the camera from them (the leathercase and flashcard arrived on time, from 3rd party sellers). I've contacted Amazon several times but they keep promising the product will be delivered and nothing happens. They can't really do something to help you. If thinking about buying a camera, it is better to go to a shop, unless you want to feel frustrated for 20+ days.

- Was meant to be a Xmas pressie for my son, but it arrived far too
....early, and there was no point leaving it in its box with the gtee running. A really cool-looking camera, that my 16yr old had up and running in minutes, without the need for instructions.
Unfortunately (for me) the pics are of such quality, that I look clearly terrible in the pics he's taken - which is a good thing, as it's gotten me onto a diet! It hooks up to the tv so you can record and play immediately all that's going on, and the video quality is superb. Amazon was definitely the cheapest at £94, as it is widely on sale for £118.
A great buy.
Rating: - great camera, perfect for holiday usage
I have a Nikon SLR D80 camera which is regarded by nearly all reviewers as the no1 SlR mid-range camera to own. We also owned a trendy pink canon Ixus camera for compactness eg holiday nights out etc. the canon was terriable, slow, bad battery, several returns to canon for repairs. This nikon is cheap cheerful and great pics, for the price its fantastic and in 18 months or 2 years if i need a new one well for 100 outlay ive got my moneys worth from this 210 ...great buy and soo compact, a real gem
