  Review summary: Megapixels: 8, Maximum Resolution: 3264 x 2448 pixels, Included Memory: Media Card, Media Format: CompactFlash, Typ...
  
  Pros: Widest angle we've seen on a digital camera. Extremely sharp, detailed images. High-end features plus helpful tools like red-eye removal and best-shot selector.
  
  Cons: Bulky and slow. Flash images underexposed. Smallish LCD. Subpar video mode.
  
  Verdict: We love the Nikon Coolpix 8400 for its wide, telescoping zoom lens, which takes impressively sharp images. If you're not looking for speed or video, this slow but sharp shooter is a very good choice.

  Nikon COOLPIX 8400
  
  Pros: High-quality shots, many automatic settings, comfortable grip
  
  Cons: Counter-intuitive menus, inadequate zoom, manual focus awkward and slow
  
  Verdict: Wide-angle lens lovers will be thrilled with the shots the Coolpix 8400 can take. It's a powerful, flexible camera; but it's not the easiest or fastest camera to use.
