The Nikon Coolpix 5700 was introduced in September 2001, as a replacement for the Coolpix 5000, but is this camera right for you? Find out in my review...
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Inside the retail box you should find the following:-
- The 5 million megapixel Nikon Coolpix 5700 camera
- 16mb CompactFlash memory card
- EN-EL1 rechargeable Li-ion battery
- Battery charger
- Neck & lens cap straps
- USB & Audio/Video cable
- CD ROM software including ... ...ability to store photo’s, but Nikon only dispatch this top of the range camera with the smallest memory. It is far too small for a camera of this resolution. Therefore, a key point to remember is to also buy a much larger CompactFlash card or Microdrive. If you don’t, you will not be able to experience the true potential of this camera.
The battery that is shipped out with the camera is estimated to last about 90 minutes in average use. However, ...

Advantages: Fabulous picture quality, versatile, full set of exposure controls Disadvantages: Ouch, that price, but way cheaper than a real "pro" model.
...ago, I was lent the Nikon Coolpix 5700 digital camera to give an amateur view of it to a professional friend of mine. After using it for a couple of weeks, I was completely sold – all that remained was summoning up the financial courage to part with the best part (or should that be worst?) of £1,000. Well, given an eager buyer for my existing digital camera, and a wife just feeling guilty over one of her own indulgencies, I swung it, and a few days ... ...IXUS I and even a Nikon F (very 70’s, very ‘Nam) – wife and credit card habit to support!
COOLPIX 5700 ERGONOMICS
Viewed from the front, the 5700 does not appear to have a viewfinder in the accepted sense of the word, since there is no optical eyepiece to be seen, except of course the lens itself. This then misleads you into thinking that the camera is a Single Lens Reflex (SLR) similar to the more serious 35mm celluloid cameras. Effectively these ...

Advantages: Excellent picture quality, full range of features Disadvantages: Battery life and weight
A great camera so far. It has replaced my point and shoot Fujifinepix 4700 zoom and after just returning from a fortnight in Europe I'm now in a position to tell you how it works in practice.
The camera has a good automatic mode which allows point and shoot photography out of the box just like a film camera. Despite the full range of features it is really easy to use straight away. Don't be intimidated by the huge manual.
Everything you need to ... ...start card. The manual allows you to explore all of the extra features the camera has, and the size of the manual is more to do with Nicon's attempt to describe all of the features clearly than the complexity of the camera.
The zoom lens is excellent, this was the feature that singled this camera out for me. The optical zoom of 8x is excellent for almost all normal use conditions, the digital zoom extends this further but I never use this for print ...

Advantages: good picture quality, nice set of features, good zoom Disadvantages: big camera, maybe too many features for what you might need?
I'm not going to post a bunch of technical specifications and random numbers which as far as the layman on camera knows mean nothing. I'll tell you about my experience with the camera and hopefully give you a good idea of what it would be like to own the camera yourself.
Ok so its a camera, lets have a look at the picture quality. The specification for the camera is 5 megapixels, this is basically the resolution of the image, 5 million pixels will ... ...zoom. So, thats a lot of pixels we have there, and they produce a wonderful image! the pictures are sharp and very detailed. The camera gives you control over internal processing algorithm parameters such as contrast, saturation and sharpness.
I won't bore you with too many words, lets have a list of some pros:
- Relatively low ISO 100 noise (grainy appearance in shadowed areas, areas of "low signal")
- Very clever 'Quick Response' shutter release ...

Advantages: Feature laden. Able to shoot in RAW. Good software. Disadvantages: Very slow RAW processing. Difficult to sync with studio flash.
...decision came down to the Nikon and the Canon PowerShot G5. The G5 nearly won as it had all the features I wanted, produced superb results and would have continued a 20 year love affair with Canon. However, the deciding factor that tipped me towards the 5700 was the excellent 8x Zoom Nikor lens. the Canon lens is a 4x zoom).
Now, I'm a serious amateur and semi-pro photographer and exhibit my work all round the world, so this purchase, my first venture ... ...work. In this the Nikon excels. You have a choice between full auto exposure, aperture priority and shutter priority. Exposure Compensation up to 2 stops either way is available in all modes allowing very easy bracketing of shots.
The built in flash is useful for fill-in, but can be infuriating to use until you get used to all the controls and menus. Even then, carrying the camera's manual around is a must. The autofocus works well and is very accurate. ...
