This camera does have good image quality and is fairly easy to use. But, the battery door latches under a thin lip on the camera body and the lip is very fragile. Even if a small piece should break off the battery door will not stay closed. You can do what I did, use a strong rubber band to hold the door shut. But, that can be a pain because to be effective the rubber band will cover the controls on the rear of the camera. That makes it more difficult to use and becomes a real pain!!!

The Nikon COOLPIX L24 has good picture quality, I love the features (there are many and they are super easy to use), it is light weight and easy to carry anywhere, but not so small you easily loose it. I enjoyed the camera for 1 year and 7 months. It had fairly low usage (5000-8000 pictures). In fact, I had nothing bad to say about it until the battery door broke. After close examination, I found that the battery door is held shut by two tiny slivers of plastic. Since the batteries create a spring-loaded effect once the door is closed, a lot of pressure is put on these two little tabs of plastic. Apparently, after a while they bust off. I would expect a camera like this to last at least three years, and mine barely made it past the halfway mark. If you buy this camera, take into account that it will not last a long time. If you plan to only use it for a few trips and then replace it, then maybe it's the camera for you. Otherwise, I'd stay away from this particular design.Read full review
It went smoothly and glad i bought . I haven't tried to download the pictures so I not sure how they will come out; the picture on the screen looks very clear Hope the pictures will too. I was hoping it would take an action picture clearer and quicker and faster reaction time between each picture ,but i don't regreat, i have alot more options with this camera than from a different camera that costs sometimes more or less for value. Im excited to use .I have a couple of people that might buy one becuase they like mine better ,will recommend. I don't feel Im doing a very good review because I havent really haven't use it to much but I think it will do the trick or maybe I can upgrade at a later date,I will look up this site again,thanks for your patience.
I thought the camera took great pictures, is easy to use and fits in your shirt pocket. The video is a bit disappointing at 640x480. There are a few auto settings for portraits, sunsets etc. Nothing more than an exposure compensation if you want to go beyond that and that is pretty limited. All in all I'd say it's a great camera for it's price and should satisfy the average casual user.
I've owned at least 5 of these cameras. They take good pictures and are easy to use. The weak point is the battery door latch. In time they all fail. Nikon should have corrected this problem years ago.
