'with its only average performance and handling, this product will struggle against similarly priced and specced offerings'
'It has less zoom, fewer manual controls, and poorer performance than most of the competition, making it a tough camera to recommend enthusiastically.'
'the image was somewhat dull, with a cold, cyanic cast.'
'Unfortunately, the Nikon CoolPix 2500 eschews this most basic of features and leaves you with just one way of taking a picture - screwing up your eyes and staring at a very small LCD.'
'Storage bundled with the camera is not bountiful: it has a Type I Compact Flash slot, and comes with a single 16MB card,'
'color and unusual shape are certain to attract attention, but under the metal skin is a capable camera with surprising flexibility.'
'The camera is fairly easy to use one-handed (right-handed), with your index finger on the shutter button and thumb to press the wide-angle and telephoto zoom buttons.'
