    Good Points: Ok as a general purpose camera particularly outside. Flash poor.


    Bad Points: After having had the camera two years the battery life has deteriorated. I got through 4 sets of batteries in one week. In one case I only got 4 pictures before it switched off. The best I got was about 20 pictures and that was by switching off the flash to save battery.


    General comments: It was good initially for a compact digital camera but I am now disappointed because of the short battery life.

    The Nikon Coolpix 5600 is basically the same digital camera as the 5200 model, but updated to take two AA batteries instead of a single rechargeable Li-ion. The battery life is therefore dependent on which brand of batteries you put in it; using Duracell's I got similar battery life to the old model (about 200 pictures - a day's worth of heavy tourism)!

    As per the earlier model, this one is small, well made, and takes very high quality pictures. Better still, it's about £50 cheaper than ...

    So far so good. The Nikon Coolpix 5600 is my first digital camera, and I am very impressed. It is easy and intuitive to setup and use. I've taken about 200 photos so far and transferred them to my PC, and I have also played them on the TV using the cable included and the built in slide show.

    I am very impressed with the quality of the images. I've been using Windows Media Player - I didn't want to have to install and familiarise myself with the Nikon software.

    I've also taken some video - ...
