Good, but a little outdated. I bought the Nikon Coolpix L10 as my first digital compact P&S camera. I had it for a couple of weeks, until mine had a 'lens error' that basically made the camera inoperable (it was stuck open). It might've been due to batteries running low, but I tried another set (which I now think was also low). The picture quality from the L10 was very good, a bit of barrel distortion was noticed in the wide angle and shooting tall skyscrapers (noticed by the curve along the side of the frame where the buildings are supposed to be straight).Another gripe I had with the camera was how slow the auto-focus was. It would basically go through the whole range of focus every time I pressed the shutter half-way and then some. This became more annoying the more I used it. Eventually a lot of my pictures came out blurry, including outdoor overcast days with 3x optical zoom. Basically anytime there's zoom & less than ideal lighting, I would have to have rock steady hands to get non-blurry pictures. Overall it's a good camera if you can overlook the issues I mentioned.
