      Nikon Coolpix 5400

      By Darren

      Review summary: The 5.1 Megapixel Nikon Coolpix 5400 has been getting great reviews both online and in the digital photography magazines I read. From all reports its one of the best 5 Megapixel cameras going around. It features full manual controls, external hot shoe ...

      Verdict: has a wider lens (equivalent to 28mm SLR) than many of its competitors and shoots exceptionally well in macro mode (it will focus as close as half an inch)

      nikon coolpix 5400

      By Adam Oxford

      Review summary: There are a lot of good 5Mp cameras around at the moment. Does Nikon's latest effort have what it takes to compete with the best of them?

      Pros: Very good wide angle lens, 4x zoom, Comfortable to use

      Cons: Slow shot-to-shot time, Camera freezesoccassionally during writes

      Verdict: This is by far the slowest camera we've used for some time. If you are only taking carefully composed landscape shots this won't be a problem, but it does prevent us recommending the Nikon wholeheartedly.

      By Alan Stafford

      Review summary: WHAT'S HOT: The Coolpix 5400 looks similar to its Coolpix 5000 predecessor, but it has several updates, including 15 new scene modes (the 5000 had none) and a 4X zoom lens (up from 3X). Starting at 28mm (35mm equivalent), the lens is wider than most ...

      Verdict: The rechargeable lithium ion battery held out for 338 shots (about 2 hours) in our tests. That's near the average for cameras priced at $500 or more. The camera comes with a small external battery charger that requires you use a 6-foot-long cord; it's ...
