My wife had been asking for a camera to go underwater.I procured this one although I am a canon shooter (several DSLR and a G15) and do not consider changing that.It was part of the four cameras my wife and I took for a month-long trip to Vietnam and Cambodia over the new year, then back home in Costa Rica, so it has seen plenty of action, from the jungles (mud and humidity) of Angkor and Monteverde to the beaches (see water and sand) of Phu Quoc and Punta Leona.I will not tell you that this took the best pictures we brought back home, although they are very decent for the size of the lens, zoom and sensor. Its value is more in being always in her pocket, always ready and no worry about risking dust, water or sand. Taking pictures while surfing is cool; not having to wonder about rain and mist is cool too.The GPS proved helpful too, even in Cambodia where it allowed us to find our hotel at night.All in all a very nice camera for what it is; not a replacement for a well-known DSLR but it has its advantages.

I've owned this camera now for just under 30 days and have used to it on camping.hiking/backpacking trips making videos and taking pictures. I've hooked up a tripod and monopod into this camera for "selfie" type shoots. I'm currently awaiting a replacement because, even though I was careful, somehow my tripod mount screw at the bottom has become stripped already and the camera falls right off the tripod....The camera shoots amazing videos and takes amazing photos for a point and shoot and the built-in wifi has been fantastic, especially for taking pictures of you and buddies from a distance at points of interest along hikes.My gripes about the camera are:battery is horrible in cold temperatures. Like really I couldn't even shoot a 15 minute video without have to use a spare battery. (i now have 6 batteries for the camera)the zoom isn't all the goodThe screw in port for the tripod is plastic, who does that.If you are going to be hooking this up to a tripod a lot consider a different camera or go ahead and purchase a repair kit and a few extra batteries with your first order..EDIT: Actually this will fix the tripod screw issue [...]

I like this camera so much that this was my second purchase of an AW110. This second one was for my daughter who wanted a small, simple to use camera for traveling. This is a rugged camera that I like to take on hiking trips. It takes terrific outdoor pictures and is easy to use. I will never submerge this camera in spite of it's claims to waterproofness since it is clear the seal on the side door that covers the battery and SIM card doesn't look like it would hold up to water over time. It's nice to know, however, that exposure to water splash / water spray won't damage it.When this camera arrived, it appeared the packaging had been previously opened. The camera was not in a bag, had no protective plastic, and even had fingerprints on the LCD. I'm not really sure if I received a new product. For this reason I rate the seller 3 stars

I took the Coolpix AW110 down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon on an 8 day trip with family and friends. We had a great time hiking, going through rapids, dangling on tight trails, huffing up and down slopes, getting drenched in the rain and in the rapids, and baking in the heat of the day. The camera did a great job of surviving the elements, taking lots of great point-and-shoot pictures. The GPS feature is nice and with 3 batteries I made it through 8 days without electricity pretty well. The zoom feature is limited (but that's well understood going in) and there is no wide angle for scenic shots in that environment. But it's a point and shoot and that's okay. Some of the features need the instructions - and those are not all that easy to decipher in my humble opinion. Finally, while I was able to manually download my photos to my iMac, I am very disappointed by trying to wirelessly transfer photos from the camera to my iPad 3. Frustrated is an understatement. It seems incredible to me that Nikon has created such a weak app for their wireless feature and incredible that no one has filled in the void. For a camera that features it's Wi-Fi capability, it is a very big disappointment. Nikon should be ashamed of the quality that is missing in that area.Aside from terrible Wi-Fi features, I found the camera to be fairly easy to use, fairly rugged, happily waterproof (though you do need to dry off the lens as so water drops or spots don't interfere with your images - true on any camera), and generally a good point and shoot camera. It just has terrible wi-fi as nearly as I can tell.

This is a decent camera for everyday use with a lot of bells and whistles. Avoid if you want to use it primarily as an underwater camera.1. The LCD screen is not very bright and when you're snorkeling on a sunny day, it's almost impossible to see what you're taking a photo of2. As mentioned by others, there is a gap between the LCD plastic cover and the actual screen. When scuba diving, the pressure bends this outer screen inwards until it starts touching the inner screen. The bend happens in the middle and looks like it could cause some serious damage.3. Nikon claims that the camera is waterproof to 59ft/18m. There's even a helpful depth gauge that shows up. Unfortunately, at somewhere around 16-17 meters, mine wasn't able to withstand the pressure, let water in and died instantly

I wanted to replace my Olympus Stylus Tough 8000 with this camera because of the significant number of technological advances and features now being offered in this Nikon vs. the my older Olympus. I chose this Nikon because of both customer reviews and feature preferences. I use this kind of camera for boating, hiking, work, mountain bike, hunting, shooting and other related hobbies. I used the Olympus during my military deployments and I believe this camera would have been even better to have back then. The following review points are for general users and not digital camera experts: Will use this product a little bit longer and follow up on my general user review. PRO1. Camouflage skin is cool and overall camera is smaller in length than my Samsung galaxy s22. GPS works great and acquires fast with a solid lock on location3. Image quality is very sharp and clear with lots of quick image effect options4. Very light weight compared my older Olympus5. Movie setting is one button push and you are recording.... this is a great feature eliminating all the dial setting first6. WiFi took all of 45 seconds to set up and works great7. Battery life is pretty much all day long of use at an amusement park with kids so you know lots of pictures8. Nice big screen on back9. Has a filter adapter which is good - haven't used it but it's made of plastic and seems kind of cheesy.10. Battery and Memory card compartment door is secured by a large locking/rotating knob. CON1. Lens does not have an automatic shut off cover - this is a good feature on my older Olympus (you do get a little brush)2. Easy Auto Setting is terrible - no user controls and doesn't adapt well to changing environments3. Little bit expensive and does NOT include the SD card in the box4. Buttons are plastic and small. My thumb easily covers the whole control area.5. Zoom toggle switch is in an awkward position but works ok6. Action button and use is annoying and not as good as Olympus tap function. Don't plan on using this much.

So, I got this for my honeymoon in Bahamas, I have a Cannon Rebel Ti series, but I didn't want to bring that with us on the honeymoon for fear of it getting wet, so I done all my research on under water cams, and this Nikon CoolPIX seemed to be the way to go.Now I will say it does work, under water, on the beach, in a dinning hall, in the ocean, every feature on it worked as well. but the photos are bad, either blurry, too dark, just plain crappy. My Iphone takes better photos then this camera does.So once we got back from the Honeymoon I sent this back, I think for the next trip I'm going to try out a GoPro.

What is the minimum basic requirement that you should expect from a consumer electronic product in this day and age? That it should turn on and work.Like many of you, I bought this Nikon for a watersports-filled vacation, opened the box, charged the battery overnight, put the camera and the manual in my carry-on bag so I had something to do on the long flight. While in-flight I pulled out the camera expecting to learn all its features.I then pressed the ON button. Here's what happened: after several seconds of a blank screen, a flash of white screen appeared together with a single exclamation point, then immediately blank screen again. Huh? I tried it again and again with the same result. I tried it with and without different memory cards. I tried it after pulling the battery out and back in, and making sure the battery orientation was correct. I studied the manual but found no special startup instructions or description of the exclamation point screen in the troubleshooting section.At the hotel I recharged the battery to make sure that wasn't the problem, but the next day the camera behaved similarly.To explain my prior camera history and experience, previously I've owned waterproof cameras by Olympus and Fuji but since gave them away to relatives. I also shoot with the Fuji X-100s, a Canon DSLR, and several Lumix micro four thirds cameras and lenses. For this waterproof camera, I should have chosen the Lumix or Olympus or even GoPro waterproof cameras, but I thought that this would be a good opportunity to try a Nikon interface.In this day and age a consumer electronic product from a major brand that flashes an error screen right out of the box? Disappointing poor quality. I'm never buying Nikon again.

I just took the camera to Maldives few days ago and used it at the beach front seawater. The camera was ok initially but later it was not functioning. After drying it and sitting for a few hours, all electronic functions & LCD were back to live by itself as water inside the camera dried out. However the lens remain full of vapour hence I still could not take sharp pictures and I have to wait for three days till it gets better. The camera looks 90% recovered today. I need to bring it to the Nikon camera center for detailed check. Please could you raise a case for me to bring it to the Nikon service center in Singapore?

Good things:It is waterproof and durable. I took this camera for snorkeling several times, it did good job. Usually I will hang on in water for 2-3 hours a day, I took plenty of nice underwater shots. Sometimes I will dived to 4-5 meters for awhile, and the camera did what he says. It's a really waterproof camera.Good IQ in good light condition. I says only in "good light condition", I will tap this problem on the negative things. Over all, it take great pics. The crucial is switching between different modes. For instance, if u want to use it underwater, make sure u r in underwater mode, otherwise the white balance or focus could be a problem.Nice close up shot. If u choose micro mode, u will get a nice close up shot, the texture of the subject is really clearly.Manual Focus mode. The manual focus mode (under auto mode) is really sweet. If u hate center focus, it will solve the problem. But it will be great and more usable if it has a manual focus on all modes.Negatives:The first and biggest thing that I am not satisfied is the white balance. In some conditions, the white balance measurement is far from accurate. That is way you have to keep switching between modes in order to have a fair white balance. Other wise, u have to do some photoshop with ur pics.Focus. Sometime slow and in accurate focus.Lens fogged up. The outside temperature was about 28-32 celsius degree, sunshine. I took my camera into the water, dived to 4-5 meters, out of the water, took a rest on boat. After I repeated this several times, I noticed that the lens fogged up from inside. Quite reasonable, but since it's a underwater camera, I think it should be an anti-fog lens. Im not sure where was the moisture from, but the camera was still working after that. You just do not open the battery cover before u back to a "save" place, after I returned to hotel, I opened the cover and it dried itself out.Over all, good tough camera, it really tough enough for any type of adventures. However, I will take 1 star for the poor white balance, and 1 star for the fog inside lens.

This is a great little camera - takes fantastic, high-res pix in or out of water. Great macro - it sometimes has a little trouble focusing when you get less than 2cm or so from the subject, but the resolution is high enough that you can back out a little and then crop the shot later. I do field research and am directionally impaired so I often have a hard time finding my way back to a site where I've seen something I want to revisit. I just take a picture of what I want to find again and when I'm really to go back to that site, I get the GPS coordinates from the image details, pop them into Mapquest, and bingo! Piece of cake. Haven't tested the "shockproof" claim yet, but it's been underwater a bunch of times (on purpose) and does great. I like it so much I just bought two more for my helpers at work - I get to keep the orange one (although it's really closer to red) and they get to fight over the black and camo ones :-)

I bought this camera to take on my honeymoon in a few weeks. Having received it and started fooling around with it I will absolutely not keep it after the vacation.At first glance this is a well built camera and I'm excited to do underwater photography. It has a good depth rating for the money. I'll simply break down what I find to be the pluses and minuses.PROS:Well builtGood button layoutImage quality is good. Don't have much to compare it to but I like what I've shot so far.It is more than just waterproof. It is also drop proof to 6.6ft. This would be a good camera to take hiking too.CONS:You must remove the battery and charge it externally. Not that big of a deal but when you do this you lose all of your settings. You must set up the camera all over again every time you charge it. Ridiculous.Wireless access is off and greyed-out in the menu. I have no way to activate it apparently. The menu does not mention it whatsoever.This is my second Nikon camera, the other being a mid-range DSLR I bought 4 years ago. It will be my last. Both cameras had strong points but ultimately had such irritating drawbacks that they weren't worth owning. It certainly isn't a piece of garbage, but unless you need to shoot underwater I would avoid this camera.UPDATE: I ended up returning this camera immediately after returning from the honeymoon that I bought it for. The camera locked up CONSTANTLY which necessitated pulling the battery out. To do so you must break the seal so while it was somewhat possible when we were walking waist deep in the water off the beach (still not a good idea though), it was completely impossible while snorkeling obviously. It nearly ruined my ability to record my honeymoon, and I lost a lot of good images and videos because it would be locked up while snorkeling and I wouldn't know it (it is nearly impossible to make out the screen while underwater so you basically just point and click and pray it is recording).

I cautiously chose this model a little over a month ago because it was a Nikon camera and my previous point and shoot unit (which was placed in a waterproof case for underwater photography) had just died after 9 years. My main concern was the lack of a secondary barrier to water entry.It worked perfectly the first 3 times I used it. I was very impressed by the picture quality and no water droplets were observed inside the seal after carefully following the instructions for care of the unit after seawater use.The fourth time I used it in the surf and after about 20 minutes, I noticed water vapour on the screen. Immediately, I switched the camera off, left the seawater, washed it in freshwater, towel dried it and then sat in the sun until the vapour disappeared. I did not use the camera again that day, nor did I crack the seal. The next day the camera worked fine.When I did open the seal, I found sand particles in the compartment where the battery, card and ports are stored.I enjoy taking underwater shots but now I'm much more anxious of damaging the unit because of this experience.And while I continue to be impressed with Nikon's technology overall, I can't help in this case to be disappointed with the waterproof capability of this camera.I would advise purchase with caution...

I am a client of Nikon few years ago and have always been very pleased with the brand and have only cameras of the brand.Currently have a Nikon D7000 with three sets of lenses and I want to buy the D800.Last year I bought a Nikon AW110.After 3 months of use, when I never exceed the depth limits specified, I noticed that it started to show condensation on the lens and LCD screen, which progressively increased to a few drops of water.This has become to obscure and take bad photos .The specification of the camera is for up to 18 meters. I do not dive, I only use the machine in pool and sea to ordinary photos, never surpassed that is 3 meters.I thought it was defective on my unit, which has made me extremely unhappy .However, when talking to a friend, I discovered that he has the same problem as me.I wish Nikon would take more care with the quality of their products.Although still find their unbeatable DSLR, now I'm looking for a better camera waterproof for purchase.

I purchased this camera in November to take underwater pictures while snorkeling. The memory card and battery were installed prior to leaving our condo, so it was definitely a dry, clean environment. Took a few pictures from the sailboat and everything was fine. Took pictures while snorkeling and everything seemed fine until we arrived back at the condo. Tried to turn the camera on so I could show the others the pictures that were taken and the it would not turn on. I installed my second battery, and still the cameral would not turn on. On closer inspection, there appeared to be water behind the viewing screen (in each of the corners). I opened all of the doors and put the entire camera, minus the memory card and battery in a bowl of rice to absorb and moisture, then tried the new battery again. Still, the camera didn't work. It never worked again.I am very disappointed that my camera didn't last even one day. Fortunately I do have the pictures that were on the memory card, but we missed out on getting more pictures later in the week.

Ordered this as a gift for my wife for our Christmas honeymoon cruise to the Caribbean so I wouldn't have to bring my DLSR. While the camera did well both at home and on the first day of the cruise, it quickly started freezing up. The camera would freeze up every 3-4 shots and require the battery to be pulled to reset the device. Due to the constant freezing we missed out on a bunch of pictures that we "assumed" we're being taken only to find out they were not. Slightly embarrassing when we would hand the camera to someone to take our picture only to have them tell us that its not letting them take the picture. Sadly we probably took more pictures with our phones then with the camera during our honeymoon.Pros:Image quality was pretty good for a point and shoot and video sound/quality was also rather impressive for the price.Cons:Freezes up - requires battery to be removed to reset cameraOverall:Good image quality and tons of features, however if you are relying on this camera for a special occasion then you may want to consider bringing a backup camera.

We used this camera on many occaisions and have started preferring to take this instead of our Nikon D40 SLR because that one is so heavy and bulky. I have tons of great picture from snorkeling in Hawaii (multiple trips) and video of my son diving after fish - replay the video on my HD TV and it's incredibly clear & awesome. On our last trip about a month ago the camera died about 5 days into our vacation and at a bad time when we found an awesome snorkeling spot with turtles & eels. I tried openning it up, drying it out, could not get it to turn back on. I sent the camera to Nikon and the estimate came back for $140 which, after much debate & research, i declined and they are sending it back to me. Now, i'm torn, because i love this camera... it's form factor, quality of images (ok, actually low light pictures suck but it excels in other ways). So, i just bought this camera again but i bought the 3 year warranty (actually, i bought it at Best Buy a little cheaper than Amazon) I believe if this camera lasts me 3 yrs and craps out then at least i can get another. I don't typically buy warranties but I really do like the form factor of this camera and another bonus is i can give it to my 4 or 7yr old and let them take pics, if they drop it... nothing happens. I hope this review helps someone - it's a good camera but i guess something's gotta give when you use it in saltwater & pools a lot.

Recently went on a trip to Hawaii and was super excited to use this while snorkeling there. It worked great during my first use in the ocean. The pictures were incredible and it had good battery life. I let it dry completely for at least 24hrs before opening the case to charge the battery. When I put the battery back in it turned on with out any problems and I made sure it was sealed before taking it back into the water but the second it hit the water it malfunctioned. This was really upsetting because I was scheduled to swim with manta rays that night and no longer had a camera. I literally barely submerged the camera and it leaked. Wish it was really waterproof because the picture quality was amazing for underwater camera standards.

I purchased this product for when I travel.... Its small and durable (but haven't dared to drop it yet.) This is my first Nikon camera because normally I am a Canon guy. The features of this camera are amazing for such a small camera... Being able to download the pictures with the built in WiFi connection is a great feature for when you only have your camera and your phone or tablet. Also having the built in GPS receiver is great to have for when you travel...The picture quality is also amazing.I tested the waterproof feature while at the beach this weekend and it works just as well afterwards... (after being on the beach and in the salt water make sure you wash it with tap water to remove any of the film that the saltwater can cause.) I took a few underwater pictures in the pool that came out as clear as it was above water.Also as a reminder *** use the built in WiFi if you want to copy the pictures off the camera after being in the water because you need to make sure the camera is dried completely before opening the water tight battery and card reader compartment... for those people that said after they used it underwater for the first time I can see how water can drip inside of this compartment if you aren't careful. The outside shell of the camera is what makes this camera waterproof... the components inside the camera arent.***

I got this in the like-new used category. I got the orange one because it was so much cheaper than the other colors. I figured it was because most would not want orange. It is actually a metallic-copper that is really cool. It takes great pics and is small. Its got an uber amount of features. The hd video is splendid. Loses something when you pan around quickly, but still vivid. The only thing I wish was different is the shutter button seems to want a little more pressure than I want to instinctively give and it makes me think that I moved the camera too much while taking pic. Regardless of my fears, it takes great photos. :0)

I was pretty excited to get this camera, but as it turned out… I'm not very impressed. I expected much more out of the Nikon camera. I cannot speak to the waterproof aspect of it, but it is very counterintuitive and difficult to function. The buttons are too small and too close together, and if you took the camera just right (and there seems to be no way of knowing what just right is) You end up with a myriad of different functions happening without you realizing it…Unfortunately there's no way to control the flash, you can turn it off, or you can set it for "auto". Sadly auto does not really function very well, it picks and chooses, and even in the middle of the night I ended up with massive shadows from the streetlights in the middle of my photo because the flash chose not to flash.For the price I paid… Yes, definitely NOT impressed.

I must revise my original review. This camera worked very well for my first snorkeling trip. I have just returned from my second trip, and I took very special care of the camera, as previously. It died on my second day or snorkeling - actually the LCD screen stays black, making the camera unusable. We were in Maui, and it was very disappointing to not have pictures to bring back.I took this camera to Grand Cayman for a snorkeling trip. It was in the ocean for 6 days, often twice per day. As a newbie at underwater photography, I had a lot to learn (still do!). I was pleased with this camera's performance. With adequate lighting, and clear conditions, I got some nice images. The underwater mode kept colors from becoming too blue, and images were generally pretty sharp. If you set the camera to "Easy Auto", it switches to underwater mode as soon as it hits the water. Many of my images needed some sort of color correction, depending on the conditions, which can change frequently and dramatically underwater. Videos were great, except for lens noise during zooming. The screen is tough to see underwater, especially in bright mid-day sun. (From what I've read, all similar cameras have this issue to some extent). Sometimes I felt like I was almost guessing, which was made more difficult because the lens is on the upper left of the camera, rather than centered.I had no problems with leaking or fogging, but I was very careful to rinse and soak the camera in fresh water, and thoroughly air-dry for at least an hour before opening the camera. I never opened up the camera outside either, to avoid fogging from humidity. The camera is quite small, and comfortable in my hand. It feels "tough", and well-made. It was a good choice for my needs.

I got this camera as we travel yearly to beach destinations, so I knew I wanted waterproof to take on our activities. It works great for outside, but I find that indoor pictures can either be extremely bright or dark, there is never an inbetween. I have take it underwater (not deep or long) and I thought it was great. Until my last vacation. I went snorkeling in Jamaica and after our brief 15 minutes in the water we got out and my screen was black. it would turn on but i couldnt see what the screen was doing. This was very disappointing as the rest of the trip I didnt get any pictures (after opening the door, water was in the battery, not much, but must have been enough). When i returned home, i attempted to get the pictures I did get taken by hooking the cord to the camera, which also wouldnt work. I was able to get them off the card, but still disappointing. Looking into a new brand/make for my next underwater camera.Another girl at our resort had the same camera and exact same issue as well.

I would NOT recommend this camera to anyone. The photo quality, even above water, is not that great (my 5 year old Canon P&S still does a better job) and beyond that the camera stopped working in under 30 days. We purchased this to go snorkeling on vacation. Before we even got to the snorkeling location, the battery had died (maybe 20 photos in), and with a fresh battery, the camera wouldn't turn on. I noticed the next day there was condensation behind the screen, and water in the lens area. The camera had been dunked in water here and there, splashed and whatnot, but not immersed for a long period of time, or anything deeper than 3 feet.I contacted Nikon customer care who told me that the camera wasn't powering on because I used an "unapproved" SD card (Samsung). There was NO NOTICE ANYWHERE in the box about using only approved SD cards - nothing in the quick start guide. It's allegedly in the manual (included on CD), but I have NO idea why they wouldn't put a warning in the box or on the camera if it's that important. Beyond that, there's water in the camera! Might that be the reason why the camera failed? I'm INCREDIBLY disappointed with support.If, for any reason you're thinking about buying this camera, don't. Get a regular P&S and a good waterproof bag like an aquapac.
