This camera is ideal for those who want to capture special moments in their lives while still staying in the moment and enjoying it. The COOLPIX L28 is a member of Nikon’s Budget Friendly series, and is friendly in more ways than one. Its intuitive buttons, large LCD display and simple menus make it easy to change modes to fit the situation, add Image Effects or just review your shots.

The compact L28 is packed with impressive features, such as a 20.1-megapixel CCD image sensor for super-sharp images, a 5x wide-angel NIKKOR zoom lens that gets you close to the action, a dedicated movie button that allows you to start recording 720p HD videos instantly and a choice of 20 different Scene Modes to match a wide variety of shooting situations, including Beach, Snow, Night Portrait, Sunset and more. Other convenient features include Electronic Vibration Reduction that helps keep your shots steady and sharp, Motion Detection for sharper shots of moving subjects, and Smart Portrait Mode with six functions that help you enhance your images. And since the L28 uses AA-size batteries, power is widely available no matter where you go.
