General Comments
The Nikon Coolpix 950 is a great digital camera, and I use it all the time for my website, prints, etc. I'm a professional photographer.
All cameras have their limits and weaknesses. But this camera can get pictures that are very difficult with a normal camera, and it is so light, versatile, and quiet, I find myself using it again and again. I know there are better cameras, including the newer versions of the Coolpix, but I highly recommend this one. It is available on the used market for less than a third of what it cost when introduced, and truthfully, the used ones are just as good. I bought mine on Ebay, used, with accessories and a case, for $350.
On average, people found this review very helpful
