A Good Camera For The Price But Could Have Been Better
The Nikon Coolpix B500 operates similarly to my older small Nikon Coolpix digital camera that didn’t have the zoom functions. The recorder is not as good though, does not play back as loud or I don’t see any way to make it louder. My previous Coolpix also had a viewfinder as well as the screen. A view finder helps to follow fast flying objects such as birds and when you can’t see the screen because of sun or light. The auto-focus is also too slow and I miss shots of birds. My screen has already gotten scratched so I wish they made a screen cover like a lens cover. The pieces that hold in the batteries and where you plug in the cables are fragile and feel like they will easily break. Nikon should know this and plastic isn’t good. I also did not get all the items in this bundle picture from Buzzphoto seller.The zoom and telephoto is nice though the telephoto at max does not produce the best clarity. The feature for moon photos is nice but I’m into birds more than anything. Close objects are pretty clear. This is a good starter camera for the reasonable price but don’t expect the telephoto and zoom pictures to look very clear though you can see the objects at least. I guess one has to get a more expensive camera DSLR to have manual focus that is faster than the Coolpix’s auto-focus. The Sunset scene does not convey the sky colors right-what was more pink came out more gold and the touch-up features does not have “warmth” or “tint” choices as on photo editors.The detailed manual is online not in the booklet in the box. You need the online manual to know the camera better. You also don’t get a warranty card even though it says it should be in the box so you have to register it online. The charger included in the bundle not made by Nikon doesn’t work.It is a decent camera for the price but people should know what they might encounter and Nikon should have known to make a better video recorder than my early 2000s 5-inch Coolpix.

Don’t bother
This is junk I spent 300 dollars on junk legit a junky camera, the zoom is terrible even with focusing in on something it’s terrible. You only get 5 different types of photos in creative mode, I mean not really a bang for your buck if you had to ask me. The video will stop recording dead video it won’t even finish the whole thing at all. You cannot even load the photos up on an iPhone 11 pro Max so I can’t even show you the photos to begin with. Not everything comes in the box that the photo claims you ordered!!! The handle that camera with it has brown junk on it which makes me know that it was used when I didn’t pay for a used camera at all!!! The box itself comes bent!!! It’s barely a crisp box!!! It’s just 316 dollars worth of unlovable garbage!! My phone legit takes better pictures and has a better zoom than this pile of garbage!!! I watched reviews on this camera that raved about it but it’s legit not something you want if you plan on uploading decent photos to your phone cause your phone and the camera will not pair!! Don’t waste your money on this!! Save your money when it comes to this camera!!! If you want a decent camera and you aren’t to worried about pairing your your phone and camera the Nikon p90 is great and well worth it!!! At least I think that cam don’t pair to phones, I’ve had that camera at least 10+ years and it still looks like I just bought it yesterday!! Nikon is at least good for that!!

Great camera....bundle is a little misleading
The camera itself is great....I am more disappointed by the bundle itself. You do NOT get everything that is pictured, but you DO get everything as listed in the description. A tad bit misleading if you ask me. Even then, my bundle was missing the SD card reader. The case is actually very nice but the batteries and charger are complete junk. I have had them plugged in for two days now and they are still not charged. Since I am taking this camera on vacation with me next week, I do not have time to return it. Just trying to warn you!

Great camera.
I have been enjoying this camera. I have had it a little over a month now and I take it everywhere I go. I have managed to get some great shots of landscapes and sunsets. The zoom on this thing is unbelievable. I highly recommend this camera.

Great bundle package with a high-quality camera
The accessories bundle I ordered with the Nikon Coolpix B500 camera is really nice. It has everything you need - and more. The camera bag is great quality - very sturdy and a good size. The tripod is very flexible and easy to use. All the bonus items, including a 32 GB SD card, make this a great purchase!

Great gift idea!
Everything came as advertised and my girlfriend loved it! Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to get a camera for someone. It fits great in our Nikon family and will give us a lot of variety for different photos and videos throughout the years.

Good Photo Quality But Horrible Video Quality (Missing Items Upon Arrival As Well)
I wasn’t satisfied with my order because when it arrived I was missing the tripod stand. Although the Nikon Coolpix B500 takes great photos, the videos aren’t good quality at all & it takes AGES to focus. I have returned this purchase & looking for a better quality camera.
