My Review 

Nikon is the Ferrari of cameras, and the L120 would be the equivalent to a 458 Italia. Driver caution advised.

It is a superb camera that suits and exceeds most overall imaging needs, surpassing even other brands' professional ones. I've been making uncanny photos from the day I got it with jaw-dropping zoom capabilities and picture sharpness.

And it comes with that unmatched Nikon magic, some "Oni" Nikon engineers evoke into it, that have you saying: "No way, I didn't take THAT picture!" Know this magic from my early F2-AS.

Been to Nikon's own review site, found a bunch of people nagging "didn't like this, thing won't work, pix are blurry, gonna donate to charity," etc.

Most are lazy-bone newbies that have never owned real stuff at all, attracted by affordability, and probably some fake reviewers paid by Canon to scare away future owners.

I only have to say to the first: Read the manual!

Didn't need much manual reading myself, for I'm a tech freak and used to eat away through any firmware in minutes, let alone this intuitive Nikon's.

Get it and I guarantee you will own one of the greatest cameras out there, ever.
