    Good Points: Terrific zoom
    Good lens
    Excellent colour control
    Good vibration stabilisation
    The ability to override all automatic settings, or to point and snap
    Relatively quick to take the picture
    A variety of multiple shot modes for action photography
    Much smaller than a 10x zoom DSLA
    Good video camera with smooth zoom (only takes 60 second at a time)
    Rechargeable battery life is good


    Bad Points: Very very slow to download large pictures to the card (max 10 seconds!! YES!)
    The complexity of menus means that manual control options can be slow and frustrating
    However, the point and snap mode is very satisfying
    Bigger than a point & snap.


    General comments: The Nikon Coolpix 8800 is a good digital camera to either snap people or, alternatively, manually compose landscapes.

    It has a very good lens and consistent clean colour so those views... too slow to save files so you only have one shot at action or impromptu pix
    Too much electronic 'noise' in low light.

    Overall, the CCD, optics, body and design are let down (a bit) by the processor speed and software.

    But so much zoom, so small for this price?

    Yes I would recommend it!
