Those looking for an inexpensive point and shoot camera that provides strong features in areas where beginning photographers need them will want to read my Nikon Coolpix L20 camera review.
With an MSRP of only $129, the Coolpix L20 is among the top cameras available for less than $150. It has strong response times, a large LCD, and a stylish look. Its image quality is pretty good, too.
The Coolpix L20 isn't the perfect camera, especially for more advanced photographers, but Nikon has created a very good value for beginning photographers with this model.

I reccently bought a Nikon L20 camera after reading a lot of reviews and going through multiple sample pictures. This camera is good but it has not lived up to my expectations especially for indoor pictures. It catches unrealistic colors for indoor pictures, with mostly darker upper portions of the pics. It probably has issues dealing with prevelant light in the scene
As point-and-shoots go, I rate my L20 higher than the Canon PowerShot it replaced. Lens quality is superb but it does exhibit a lot of spherical aberration. I agree with the reviewer’s observation about battery life: it’s energy-hungry. That said, I wish Nikon had added a meter to alert you when battery power was low. My rating: 4 out of 5.
