Nikon Coolpix L1 Review at CNET

Nikon Coolpix L1CNET have just reviewed the Nikon Coolpix L1 digicam, which offers a 5x optical zoom lens, 2.5-inch LCD monitor and 6.2 megapixels.

“The Nikon Coolpix L1 is not a fast camera. Since all operations cease while it writes an image to its built-in storage or to an SD memory card, it takes an excruciatingly long 6.8 seconds between shots in single-shot mode; make it 9.5 seconds if you’re using flash. Continuous-shooting speed is a little less than 0.7 frame per second, so forget about catching frenetic sports action with this camera. While the L1 takes about 5 seconds to fire off a shot after you press the power button, it has an adequate 0.9-second shutter lag in high-contrast lighting.”
