The new Nikon Coolpix 8800 VR ----- VR for "Very RAD"?
The Coolpix 8800 VR is a radical new prosumer digicam, the fifth generation flagship (CP5000, CP5400, CP5700, CP8700) of Nikon's "bridge" digital camera family. Nikon's R&D folks designed this series of upscale digital cameras to provide users with most of the benefits of a digital SLR and all the... Read full review »
8800 Falls Short...FAR short
"The Nikon 8800 is money poorly spent."
After a disappointing experience with the coolpix 8800 from Nikon I decided to return the 8800 in favor of the D70 DSLR from Nikon with the Nikkor 18-70mm lens kit. Like some people, I was under the (okay, silly!) impression that the 8800 could...

Good value for money
Having purchased a Panasonic 5M pixel in Singapore a wanted a camera that would give better resolution and greater zooming power. The Nikon 8800 seemed to be the best value for money and to provide the features I needed so I bought one. I've owned a number of Nikon cameras's and can't say I've... Read full review »

Great camera
I bought my 8800 a couple of years ago, mostly for the 10x zoom, and I am consistently impressed with it. The images produced are amazing and the camera is very easy to use (I am not an advanced photographer). It helps to always carry the user manual with the camera because there are too many...

Good overall camera
I bought this camera because it had all the features I wanted. The closest Nikon with VR costs way more than this one, and with 10x zoom the VR is necessary. Takes amazing pictures in daylight, and at night with long exposures. If you want to take good action night shots make sure to get a strong... Read full review »
Bit of a disappointment
This is a great camera if blurry shots are your thing. I'm thinking of putting my month old 8800 up on Ebay and taking what I can get for it and parlaying that into the D70. It's auto focus has let me down way too many times now. And auto focus is the only option. If clear shots on the first try... Read full review »
Excellent Photos and Features
Perhaps the most common reason for poor quality photos, especially with a long zoom, is camera shake. I have had this camera for 10 days and have taken a few hundred pictures, many with a high level of zoom, all shot by hand. None have been blurry. All have been sharply focused with a high level of... Read full review »
NIKON 8800 I love it !
I am really glad that I bought this specific camera. I got a really great deal ($669) and I was happy about the improvements made from the 8700. I did my research, got frustrated, read some more, got confused, and then decided that it was going to be a risk just like any other buy but I wanted to... Read full review »
Next best thing to DSLR
If you have realistic expectations, this is a great camera. It is not a DSLR so don't expect the speed and capabilities. It is not a point and shoot camera.
It is a camera with a huge zoom, image stabilization and a lot of control over all factors of photography. Sure there are some...
