Reviews of the Nikon Coolpix L10
-
CNET Review
The Good: Decent picture quality; decent performance.
The Bad: Very few controls; very slow flash recycle time; relatively low resolution; slow shutter in low light.
The Bottom Line: The Nikon Coolpix L10 makes a great budget point-and-shoot camera, if you don't mind its paltry 5-megapixel resolution.

Review Summary: The Nikon Coolpix L10 is the L12's little sister and as such offers similar performance but with lower resolution and sans that camera's optical image stabilisation. It also suffers from all the problems the L12 has, only more so.
