CNET Reviews Nikon Coolpix 5200

Nikon Coolpix 5200CNET have published their review of the new 5 megapixel Nikon Coolpix 5200 compact digital camera.

“Although targeted at the same snapshooting cadre as its Coolpix 3200 and Coolpix 2200 siblings, the Nikon Coolpix 5200 is a horse of a different color. It’s just as pocketable and as highly automated as its stablemates, but the Coolpix 5200 sports a 5-megapixel sensor and a slightly smaller metal—not plastic—body with a better layout. Additionally, it costs $150 to $250 more. It will please first-time digital camera owners who want to make large prints without much editing, but if you’re an image-quality snob, look elsewhere.
