5 out of 5 stars   Nikon 1 J1 Mirrorless Camera

Review submitted for Nikon J1 Mirrorless Digital Camera w/ 10-30mm VR Lens (White) Factory Refurbished (NK1J11030WRB)
Pros: Although this was a refurbished item, I could not tell it apart from a new camera. The camera was in mint condition. I've had it for about a month now and have taken upwards of 400 photographs so far. I can't believe the quality of the photographs for such a small camera. If your a novice shooter, then the "Point and Shoot" mode will suit you just fine. However, if you're serious about taking really good photos, the Nikon J1 will allow you to shoot in PASM mode as well. Here's where this camera just shines. I'm able to control depth of field, exposure, ISO, focus mode, metering mode, and all the other manual setting that go into making a fantastic photo. For a 10MP camera, this unit compares very favorable to my 16MP Nikon D5100. I'm almost ready to give up my DSLR and go with this camera as my primary method of shooting. And did I tell you it's so light. Highly recommend that you also get the 30-110 mm telephoto lens (new for about $150 [...]
Cons: - Refurbished unit with a limited warranty - Warranty does not apply to the battery. I noticed that my battery is about ready to give up the ghost. Had to buy another battery on eBay. - No viewfinder; shoot and compose via the LCD screen
Other Comments: Highly recommend this unit. Don't let the 10MP sensor stop you from buying this camera. Nikon has done a terrific job on the sharpness of the lens, the color depth and clarity of the photo processor, and focusing is fast and sharp.

5 out of 5 stars   Eau Mah Gawd!
By TeamPatiPhotog on July 19, 2014
Review submitted for Nikon 1 J1 SLR White Digital Camera w/ 10-30mm VR And 30-110VR Lenses (Refurbished) (E1NK1J11030WRB)
Pros: This camera is beyond cool! I received it just before the Fourth of July, so that I could take it to the fireworks. I can toss it in my purse, I have it with me all the time. I have the 10-30mm lens plus the 30-110. I use both equally. The camera is lightweight, and I can actually see the screen without my readers.
Cons: None
Other Comments: I have been showing everyone this camera. Many of my friends are photographers and they can appreciate all the features of this camera.

5 out of 5 stars   Great Travel Camera
By Skip on July 17, 2014
Review submitted for Nikon 1 J1 SLR White Digital Camera w/ 10-30mm VR And 30-110VR Lenses (Refurbished) (E1NK1J11030WRB)
Pros: Great combination of a quality camera in a convenient size. Perfect for travel when I don't want to lug my Nikon D7100 and 2 or 3 lenses. It has two, very easy to use continuous shooting features that are terrific when I am taking pictures of my grandkids. The battery lasts for more than a day of taking pictures. Takes excellent pictures in low light. Great design.
Cons: A little slow in single-shot mode (at least compared to my D7100).
Other Comments: This i s my 3rd Nikon refurbished purchased and, so far, all have performed the same as new. For $289 for the camera and two Nikon lenses, it is an outstanding value.

3 out of 5 stars   point and shoot or slr?
By nathan on June 24, 2014
Review submitted for Nikon J1 Mirrorless Digital Camera w/ 10-30mm VR Lens (White) Factory Refurbished (NK1J11030WRB)
Pros: Small. Easy to use. Rapid shooting. Quick start up and focus
Cons: Low mpexil. (10) Bland colors. Cumbersome menu compared to nikon 900 series point and shoot. B&w is more like grey. Lot of after shooting contrast and temp. Adjustments needed. Would never replace an slr. Lacks the over all convince of a point and shoot.
Other Comments: Not worth it at msrp. Good for the deals offered if one wants to try mirrorless.

4 out of 5 stars   Small, fun camera with quirks worth it if it''s cheap...
By Loveslinky on May 29, 2014
Review submitted for Nikon 1 J1 SLR Red Digital Camera w/ 10-30mm VR Lens (Refurbished) (EBNK1J11030RRB)
Pros: Very compact for an interchangeable lens camera. Good image quality for sensor size, noise pattern looks like film grain. Some good lenses available. Good autofocus and fast burst speed. Silent shutter when necessary. Surprisingly powerful built-in flash.
Cons: Small sensor means noisy images, especially at 800 & above. Weird green tint often with auto white balance--especially so with flash. Flash blows out highlights at ISOs higher than 200--even with exposure compensation. Manual control limited to menus.
Other Comments: This camera would meet most casual photographer's needs in good light. Getting good images in low light is more challenging. JPEGs can have some weird color & lighting quirks--RAW files have a fair amount of room to be improved after the face. Good size for women and men with smaller hands. Accurate, fast auto-focus and high burst speed make it good for snapshots of your vibrating children.
