Dmitry B.
Advantages: Quality, zoom, performance
Disadvantages: no
Comment: There is no need to draw conclusions on a defective device. The camera is great! yes, this is not a DSLR camera, and not a cool mirrorless camera, prices for which start at 40 thousand rubles. This is a good and convenient digital camera with a steep optical zoom. In a dark room with a flash - great photos. In the dark without a flash - very good, in the sunlight there is nothing to say. The video is very high quality, the stabilizer works great. And using the 40x zoom is just a fairy tale for a normal tourist without the quirks that photos can only be taken on DSLRs for a couple of green ones.

Advantages: Good optical zoom, image stabilization, Wi-Fi and bluetooth, quickly and accurately focuses, it is possible to record videos in FullHD. Also, there is the possibility of wireless synchronization with a smartphone using a special application available from Google Play.
Disadvantages: Weight, but it's a matter of habit. Excessive noise reduction in low light and maximum zoom. There are no manual settings for shutter speed and aperture, but I hardly need them. No HDR mode.

Reliable. The first one served me for 8 years (the only difference from the modern one is in a movable monitor) and a colleague lost it (there should be piiiiiii) and if it were not for this slovenliness, it would have served further. There is only one minus - batteries.

Advantages: Wi-fi, Bluetooth, slide-out display, 40x zoom.
Disadvantages: photos from 5 meters, there is no difference between the iPhone SE and Nikon, the difference is only felt at distant objects, there the clarity is high, but if you take a photo of the sun, the SE will do it even better.
