Looks like they've put more work on the design of the camera than its function. Nonetheless, it does what it is supposed to do.
I know they got a great "Night scenery" photo there, but if you want to take night photos (without flash, so they actually are kind of visible)... Don't go for a digital camera. You won't be able to.
The zoom ain't gonna be any good, but if you use zoom whenever you take pictures with a digital camera then you're a fucking retard and you shouldn't own a camera at all.
I'd say that this camera's best quality (and frankly, the only thing that makes it slightly better than my cellphone camera) is the HD quality video filming. But then again... Are they truly using the phone to film that? What about the audio? You never know.I've seen better Nikon models but for its prize... I'd say it's "good enough". Best option would be to actually try it out yourself before you buy it because the photos and examples shown are almost always edited.
But the question when you're buying a camera is... What are you going to use it for? If you actually plan on start photography seriously, you shouldn't get a digital camera. In that case you should go all out and buy yourself a cheaper DSLR camera.
I know Canon has some great "starter"-editions, as mine, for example which is a Canon 1000D and you can find example pics in my DA http://antikavelvet.deviantart.com/gallery/
Most of those photos are taken with the original lens it came with. I think the 1000D isn't sold any longer, but you can find its "sister camera" Canon 100D I think it was... It will start you off great and give you very good quality pictures (I think the 100D even has video function too).If you only want a camera to take to parties and stuff, then yes, by all means, go for the COOLPIX P330. But don't expect great things from it and don't go terrorizing us with the bad quality Instagram edits on this thread, cappice?
EDIT:
Here are Sample pictures, unedited (Supposedly)
http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/nikon_coolpix_p330_review/sample_images/Yes, you will get "pixely" pics but that's because you're buying a digital camera.
If I were you, I'd go for the Nikon COOLPIX P520. Still a digital but with less pixely photos and... Well, whoever said bigger isn't better? It's not that much more expensive either.

Canon 100D (Rebel SL1 in the Americas) looks like a good entry level DSLR.

I'm definitely going to give it a lot more thought, before making a final decision. Thank you for showing me some other options and the advice.

Do you want zoom? But still compact?
Or you don't need zoom?I assume you want to go compact.
I got the sony (there is a link there.)

GODFUCKING DAMMIT ARTWORK, I WILL SERIOUSLY SPANK YO ASS.
Digital Cameras and Zoom should Never EVER have been put together. Because...
A) Zoomed pics in Digital Cameras look fucking disgusting.
B) Zooming pictures in general is a bad move, often a last resort.If you haven't gone through the trouble of getting a good camera with a good lens AIMED for zoomed pictures, then no, Do not EVER zoom pictures.
What do you do instead? WELL YOU...
A) Go to the object itself. MOVE, YOU LAZY ASS.
B) You change the size of the photo to the largest (or RAW if possible) and do your best to get closest to the target. Then you CROP that picture.This ain't fucking CSI. You don't have the stability of a rock. If you often use the zoom, your pictures will simply turn blurry and awful.
Every time you use the zoom function on your digital cameras, I will kill a kitty.DO NOT USE THE FUCKING ZOOM ON DIGITAL CAMERAS, PEOPLE.

Biased
Ofcourse digital zoom is nowhere close to SLR zoom.
But fuck you if you want to carry around a huge SLR be my fucking guest. But I'm not going to do that and neither will a lot of other people.I want something which I can tuck away on my travels. Not something which I have to hang around my neck all day long. Not even adding a lens.
30x zoomed image.
OYEAH LET ME JUST MOVE TO THIS FUCKING SHY BIRD LIKE I AM SO CUNT ASS PREDATOR.

Although it is an exceptionally good zoom capture - aside from it not being sharp at all - it still doesn't change the fact that most of the zoomed pictures people take turn out crappy AND OH YEAH, TOO FUCKING BAD YOU DON'T HAVE FUCKING STEALTH.
Aside from that; what. You just managed to take a photo of a bird butt. What's there to be proud about.

Just know SLR isn't for everybody.
I needed a travel zoom, compact and versatile.
I needed zoom because I like taking pictures of animals, who often enough are nowhere close.
Compact because I can't carry around such a large camera, and don't want to.You trade in image quality with any digital camera. But you get other things in return.
It depends on the person. Are you butfucked and RAW image horny? Don't mind 1000$+ kits with you all the time? Don't mind 2kg+ on camera equipment. Be my guest get a SLR.
Want something smaller? Care to sacrifice some image quality? There's a wide range of digital cameras available. With or without zoom. Each which has its + and - sides.
I love my camera for all the options it has. It feels like a compact SLR. And the image quality doesn't bother me one bit since I don't spend hours photoshopping pictures anyway.

I am not saying that DSLR Camera is better. Small digital cameras do have their uses. However, zooming (on both cameras!) is a worse idea than simply cropping a big picture afterwards. That is simply for the quality.
Thus I said that the question is always what you're going to use the camera for. Since nowadays, a lot of digital cameras do have more options. I remember I used an Olympus before, strongly restricted seeing as I couldn't take pictures without flash and such. With a DSLR camera, you can get into technicalities which you can't with a digital. (And Goddess, we've had this discussion before.)
But let's be honest: if you seriously want to learn photography and become an amateur photographer, then you shouldn't buy a digital camera. And if you aspire to take beautiful scenery pictures or portraits with your camera, your digital camera will be strongly limited.

This is all about what YOU want to show! (I mean, let's not talk prizes here, let's talk strictly what oneself wants to hear)One thing is: taking a few nice pictures of birds to have in your album. Another thing is making a hobby out of it. If you are happy with the camera and the quality of the photos you have right now, then that is OK.
What isn't OK for people to do is to - the same way you do - walk around talking pictures of animals and expect some honest criticism on their "photography skills". Or joining Photography sites and uploading hundreds of pictures with horrible motives, angles and pretty much anything because they feel that they don't need to learn shit 'cuz they are "Naturals".That is the one thing I like about Instagram. If you're on there, you're not expecting great things from others. We just share a bunch of pictures and all and that is it. On Instagram, it is OK for you to upload the hundreds of pictures of bird butts on your camera. But on a serious community where people actually want GOOD criticism, it isn't OK for you to do so (and putting all your pictures up for criticism! God, that's annoying).
So, if you are looking for someone to bother criticizing your pictures, then please do bother taking a picture worth looking at.

I have a SLR actually. A Canon EOS something.
I know how to use my camera. Of course I am not making my job out of it, lol. But I doubt mascerpone is.
I never said I was looking for criticism and I never said I don't want to learn.However professional photography is a really expensive 'hobby' and you shouldn't push everybody towards it straight away.
Start with something cheaper. Enjoy? Maybe move on.
Also while you might not find them worth looking at, enough people liked my shots. Not everybody looks at pictures like a hawk circling in the sky looking for a mouse down below. Ohh no! Noise issues! Ohh no wrong ISO! Ohhh no bad aperture!
PS: Antika DSLR is not SLR. D/Digital. 'With a DSLR camera, you can get into technicalities which you can't with a digital. (And Goddess, we've had this discussion before.)' But I know your point. It just feels like you're forcing your 'pro photography' point of view on people who want to shoot pictures without spending an arm and a leg.
And before I forget. I can't carry around a SLR. I'm going to Singapore in Januari (internship, reason why I got the camera). And I can't easily bring my SLR with me where ever I go. I can with a smaller digital camera.

You do realize that the only thing I was making a case for is the use of Zoom, right?
And I don't deny that I could enjoy your photos. In no way am I looking for deepness in the usual every-day photography. But when discussing what camera to buy, I want the buyer to truly think about their possibilities. My camera cost me a whole lot, especially since I was like 15 at the time that I bought it and had to pay it off during a whole year (and I hate being indebted). However, it is one of my favorite possessions and I feel it was worth every penny along the way. If someone is buying a camera, I want them to feel the same way; whether the camera is for everyday use or for more complicate things.
As for the difference between DSLR and SLR: I own both and I know the difference. People nowadays do not buy SLR cameras because film costs more than a memory card. ...And you know, if they have a SLR then they actually have to learn how to use them.
The big difference? A DSLR can be used the same way as a digital camera when you put it on automatic settings. Which you can't with a SLR. When you use it on manual settings, it's like using an SLR (with the big advantage that you have a screen to look at the picture you just took).Posted 2 years ago # -
Alright sorry. I might got a bit confused with your first reply if that's the case.
Posted 2 years ago # -
That happens.
Anyhow, if you own a Canon EOS (which is most likely a digital SLR a.k.a DSLR. If it uses memory card, then it is) and you're ever interested then you could look into telephoto lenses (long-focus lenses). For your bird photography, those would be perfect. Although I don't think they are that cheap. Have no idea about the prizes seeing as I only take pictures of people.
There is also the possibility of using older lenses onto new cameras when you use SLR and DSLR cameras. My SLR camera is a Nikon and my friend who owns a DSLR Nikon was able to use the lenses (although things such as focus have to be set manually).
So if you know anybody who would be kind enough to lend you a telephoto lens, then you should give it a try.

Preview from today's photoshoot!
More pics will come later.

For just a couple minutes early this morning, the light seeping into my room was this bold, ethereal pink; I couldn't believe it was real. Unfortunately, the best camera I had was my iPhone, which couldn't possibly capture it. ;-;

Here is a picture of my friends cat. I couldn't get a front shot, because I was slow with the camera.
