"blurry images"
Pros: adequate features, seems well-built
Cons: poor quality images
Summary: Soft focus would be a very generous term for the images I've gotten from this camera. Blurry would be more accurate. Especially on the left side of the image, some areas look like I might have smeared sunscreen on the lens but it's brand new and spotless. Lousy optics is all I can guess is the problem.
Contrast is too high, even when on the reduced setting. Light areas are washed out while dark areas are black and underexposed.
I've had several small digital cameras over the years and this is the most disappointing. There's no point in capturing 8-megapixels with the Coolpix P50. I got much sharper images with the 5-megapixel camera I used for three years. This one is bound for Ebay after just a month of ownership.
I shoot mainly landscapes, where lack of detail and sharpness is noticeable. This camera might be fine for everyday close-up shots of people, street scenes, etc.
