Nikon COOLPIX 5400 Digital Camera

This camera has all the usual Nikon features but adds a special one, a wide angle lens (28mm equiv at the wide end of the zoom). That works very well and the quality, including the macro, is exceptional. Exposure is very accurate and the 5 mp sensor gives truly spectacular photos of nearly every type of subject. If pressed, you can set the camera to 'point and shoot' and that works really well most of the time.

Especially useful for beginners - and lazy experts - are the scene modes, which take the effort out of driving such a complex machine in specific circumstances such as macro, portrait, panorama etc. These are easily accessible with the minimum of menu 'digging'. Also present are the usual manual and semi-manual modes - truly a versatile camera.

I liked its solid feel and the general high quality of its operation. The zoom lens is really excellent.
I liked the wide shutter speed range and the number of shots one can take in direct sequence.
I liked all the special features (time lapse, noise reduction, bulb to 10 min, quick startup ...)
I liked the controls, though there are a lot.
I liked the screen, though ideally it would be bigger.

Just about everything you could possibly want is there and works pretty well, but there are some minor drawbacks:

1. Battery life is not all that long when using the screen (there is no LCD panel)
2. It occasionally gets caught out when focussing in low light (no AF assist feature), though I do mean occasionally.

3. The RAW file option has yet to be implemented.

Overall, a this is a really good camera capable of outstanding results.

Nikon Coolpix 5400

The 5400 was launched at about the same time as the more popular 5700 and having used both cameras, the 5400 gets my vote. The 5400 offers all the manual features as well as the standard Nikon range of programmed scenes - meaning that the real amateur can get fantastic images as well as the professional.
The strong points of the 5400 are a 28mm equivalent wide angle for stunning landscapes and a very impressive macro performance all packed into a palm sized, well laid out camera with a solid well made feel.
The only downside I ever found is the 4x zoom is not as far reaching as the 5700.

Nikon COOLPIX 5400 Digital Compact Camera

I bought the camera because I had already got one and it went faulty, so I decided to get another one, so that I would not have a long learning period.
The things I like about the camera are - It has a wide angle zoom - good for interiors and landscapes; it has a viewfinder; it has a fold-out viewing screen so you can get high or low shots; it can take a Nikon flashgun via it's hot-shoe so you can get shots of outdoor events; it has a 5 megapixel CCD so you can get A3 size prints at 150 dpi. The things I don't like about the camera are - the viewing screen is quite small; the viewing screen is hard to see out of doors; the lens seems quite delicate - it was a lens fault that caused my first COOLPIX 5400 to fail; it takes quite a long time from pressing the button until the shutter fires - hopeless for action photography.Read full review...

Superb!

The best point & shoot digital camera I've ever used. It is like a piece of
scientific equipment. The functionality leaves little to be desired and control
is ergonomically excellent. Macro is simply amazing. The results have a
refinement, a sophistication, that I have not seen in other point & shoot camera photos.

Despite some very fast continuous modes the camera itself is quite slow. It is
also quite large, certainly too large for a jeans pocket. Manhandling the lens cap can be a nuisance as well but well worth it for that lens.

A superb quality machine -

This is built and handles like a 'real' camera. It feels substantial and trustworthy in the hand, and wears well in everyday use. It functions very well too, although it is showing it's age in the speed department - with that old fashioned gap between button and shot. Still, it makes up for this in focus and exposure, which are so much better than many rivals.
A very nice tool for taking good quality pictures - which about all you can ask really !

Nikon Coolpix 5400

The camera is compact and easy to use with serveral useful modes.
The camera compliments my digital SLR in situations when it is impractical to use the DSLR.
Spare batteries are required at all times as the camera uses a lot of battery power and can go through two sets of batteries in a day (depending on use). I would recomend the use of rechargeable batteries to keep costs down.
The reason I decided to buy the camera was in my humble opinion, the camera was the best product on the market at the advertised price bracket.

Nikon Coolpix 5400

I bought this as I wanted to upgrade from my Kodak DX3700. The quality from the Kodak, which is 3.2 megapixel, is very good. The Nikon is 5.4 megapixel and coupled with the fact that it is a "NIKON" this should produce superb photos. It came with full instruction manual and some spare memory cards. Overall I'm very pleased with it. Nothink to dislike about it.Read full review...
