  This camera fully met my expectations for an affordable, long zoom camera. Prior to purchasing this camera I had been using the camera on my cell phone. While my cell phone takes decent pictures, it does not have any optical zoom. I can digitally zoom a little bit with it but those pictures look blurry. I got this camera primarily for it’s 28x optical zoom. This really gives you the ability to take pictures that just aren’t possible with the cell phone. I can get more people in an indoor shoot because the lens is a wider angle than on my cell phone camera and with the 28x optical zoom it opens up a whole new world, especially for outdoor shoots. l also like that it uses regular AA batteries which are available just about everywhere. At a price of less than $200 it is an excellent value.

  Excellent price quality relation, November 10, 2015

  I tested the Nikon Coolpix L340, this is an excellent 20 mega pixel camera, with a very good 28x Zoom, and really very little color distortion around the edges, focus speed fairly quickly although the macro focus can sometimes be over 5 seconds, Its very user friendly compared to the previous and cheaper L330 http://amzn.to/20IqO79

  PRO:

  The lens has an OIS
  The sensor takes great low light photos and videos
  The autofocus speed (but macro autofocus is slow)
  The ISO 80 to 400 produces very usable photos
  Uses standard SD memory cards, I recommend a Class 10 from transcend http://amzn.to/1GU60mS

  CONS:

  28x optical zoom produces moderate levels of chromatic aberration around the edges (when at 28x).
  HD 1280×720 (720p) resolution, 1080p expected when most current smatphones are able to.
  Very basic controls, (but might be just enough for most)
  Above ISO 400 the noise increased in the images, they look sharper but with noticeably noise.

  This camera uses 4 AA batteries, I particularly use the second gen Eneloop batteries from Panasonic, Out of a full charge I can get over 300 shots, the third gen is out I’m sure you might get more pictures out of them http://amzn.to/1M3TJLl

  You cant go wrong with this camera, for the price you get a 20MP camera, 28X zoom and the convenience of using standard batteries and memories

  I ordered this at Target online on Black Friday with free shipping and I am happy to say that I love it. I’ve only had it a couple of days, but I’ve been taking numerous types of pictures to try it out and I love it. I have searched and searched and searched for a camera that takes good pictures up close AND far away, for a decent price. I’ve went through many that were under $100 and they were crap. I paid right at $100 for this camera (before tax and warranty) and I think that is a steal for the quality of pictures that it takes. It’s no professional camera, but when you go from an iPhone camera to this, it feels like you are a professional! I am 100% satisfied with the camera, the quality of pictures it takes, and how quickly the camera actually takes the pictures (there is no lag). Those were my main three concerns when purchasing this camera and I am very happy with my purchase.
