"I've been a fan of Nikon's Coolpix line of cameras for a long time. I even bought a Coolpix 950 back in the early days of this site. My advice here is to skip over the Coolpix 775, however. It's not that it's a bad camera -- not at all -- it's just average. Most of the photos were decent, but I couldn't help but notice that many photos had case of the "jaggies". The feature set is pretty basic -- there are no bells and whistles here. If you're looking for a basic point-and-shoot camera, do consider the Coolpix 775. But my honest advice would be to consider the competition instead."
