Nikon Coolpix L4 Review at Steves Digicams
DIWA member Steves Digicams have reviewed the Nikon Coolpix L4, a 4 megapixel camera with 3x optical zoom lens and 2 inch LCD.
“The L4 is not what I would call a robust performer. Power up to first image captured measured 3 seconds, much of which is consumed by extending the lens. Shutter lag averaged 3/10 of a second when pre-focused, including about 1/10 second delay in the LCD viewfinder’s live image; autofocus shutter lag averaged 7/10 second. When shooting in single exposure mode, the shot to shot delay measured approx. 3 seconds between frames without use of the flash and between 5 and 9 seconds with the flash, depending on subject distance and battery condition. I also noticed that when using the camera’s red-eye reduction flash mode, the viewfinder blanks during the pre- flash, a critical period of just under one second.”
