I give this camera a 4 star out of 5.
Why? because if you wana take pictures at night, NIKON Coolpix L120 isnt the one you want. But if you want a 14 megapixel camera with 21x optical zoom, this is the one.

But there are lots of features this camera has that makes it really competitive in todays market. I will write all those below just after you know about the external look of this camera. It comes in a nice black color and a VERY nice maroon color. I went for the maroon one because it makes it really distinct and cool looking from other cameras.
Features (what you really wana know about)
=
  • black/ maroon color
  • 21x optical zoom
  • 14.1 megapixels
  • 720 hd video
BACK of the NIKON
  • 3 inch LCD screen
  • instant record button
  • function and direction button (with usual flash and timer options)
  • play slideshow button
  • thumb resting place (good grip)
  • delete button
  • menu button.
  • Scene button (17 scene modes)
LEFT of the Nikon
  • Zoom in zoom out scroll
  • button for manual flash pop up
  • hdmi port, charging port
BOTTOM of the Nikon
  • Place for tripod stand
  • Battery and SD card slot
  • 4 AA size batteries
TOP of the nikon
  • on off button
  • snapshot button a little infront with zoom in zoom out slider circling it.
  • stereo and voice recording places
  • Top corner left you gotta place for a neck band (wont suffocate you, its not that heavy)
THE GOOD:

1. NIKON L120 fits really nice in your hand/ very stable.
2. Lots of scene modes like beach, firework, B&W and so on.
3. Flash does not pop up like Canon sx210 everytime you turn on the camera.
4. Nice flash pop button on the side.
5. 2 places for zoom in zoom out for your easiness.
6. Day time photo and video quality is great with 14 mpx and 720p video respectively. With 21x optical zoom which dosent get blur.
7. CHEAP and camera looks awesome.
Bad about it

1. Night time pictures are not good.
2. Camera wont fit in your pocket for sure.
3. Makes that zzzzzzz noise when you zoom in and zoom out while making a video and you hear that in your video unless the place is too noisy.
4. You cant take pictures really fast one after the other.
