Best Deal Anywhere!

I use these Kodak ink cartridges infrequently as I don't print all that much off my PC. When I do want a nice color rendition of a photo I have, this ink gives me a very accurate color reproduction, even on non-Kodak paper.
It lasts a long time, but I only buy when I need it so it doesn't grow 'stale' as is not the case with fresh ink. Best Buy's prices are the best around for this ink, better than all the other office type retailers. And, it's always fresh in stock when I come in for it. Who could ask for more?

Call of Duty: Black Ops III is the ultimate 3-games-in-1 experience. In Campaign mode, you must navigate the hot spots of a new Cold War to find your missing brothers. Players can play the campaign cooperatively or solo and are now always connected to the intelligence grid and their fellow operatives during battle. Multiplayer features a new momentum-based chained movement system, allowing players to fluidly move through the environment with finesse, using controlled thrust jumps, slides, and mantling. Black Ops III multiplayer also introduces the new Specialist character system, which allows players to master 9 characters' battle-hardened weapons and abilities through a challenge-based unlock progression system. No Treyarch title would be complete without its signature Zombies offering. "Shadows of Evil" has its own distinct storyline right out of the box, set in the fictional 1940s Morg City, where four particularly troubled individuals — the femme fatale, the magician, the detective, and the boxer — star in this film-noir inspired horror story.

Too Much To Hope For?

As I have all the C.O.D. games, I was inclined to get this one after seeing the trailers and info on it. While it works great and gives you enough to play with, the inherent difficulty it require is something of a nuisance to work with. Certain level require almost genius gameplay to travers through them, even at lower difficulties. Trying to figure out what you have to do to get past some of the sequences is tiring and not really fun at all.
I've played about one-third through and haven't had an urge to get back into it for these reasons. I thought Wolfenstein was really awful and terribly bad, but this game, while offering better graphics and shooting action is the close to the same for me but on a different plane. I wish I could get cheater codes to use to make the game more fun and at least see what to expect and not have to wrack my brains trying to figure out what it is they want you to do (for the sake of fun?!)
A lot of the older C.O.D's IMO have better interaction and great AI and are a lot of fun as an alternative to these futuristic mind benders!

Perfect Fit!

Saw these bags and first bought the taller and smaller one. My Nikon P900 just didn't fit it so I returned it and picked up this one. The bag has nicely made features and more importantly, holds my camera and other gear with ease.
It has an adjustable wide rubber sided shoulder strap and I brought it all the way in to use mostly as a carry handle. Unfortunately, this bag could have used a nice carry handle on it so I wouldn't have to re-adjust the strap for shoulder carry. Although, it would be something of an engineering feat to design one that would allow you to lift the bag without pulling the cover open with magnetic catches which work just fine. They do however, make it really easy to keep everything secure while walking around and going for the camera when needed.
The green and brown appointments look great and don't show any dirt or smudges. Al in all, a nice bag at at decent price but only got four stars due to the lack of a carry handle.

Greatest Camera Ever!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the second one I purchased for a friend who had trouble finding one for sale and available. No wonder as this camera has it all! After seeing the shots I was getting with mine, several friends bought one and they love it too!
Use it 90% of the time and I have six other cameras, but his is my 'go-to' camera for sure. Zoom, stabilization and built in controls are amazing and easy to use. Battery seems to go on forever. I enjoy using it to catch planes flying overhead, usually about 2-3 miles away, handheld....see sample pic!

my lcd screen does not work

Check to see if you have it turned off! If not, contact Nikon in Melville and if under warranty, they will repair it. If not, they will advise of the amount $$.

Is there a camera that after i take the picture I can input text on the picture from the camera

You can use 'Picasa', which is free to do that. It's much easier, you can select font, size, color, border, rotate and position anywhere on the photo. I use it often and it works great. Google Picasa for the download!

Just bought a Panasonic ZS50 LUMIX. Looking for other owners in NYC area for help in learning to use it.

Do you have this Panasonic, like to use it, like to talk about it, willing to spend an
hour or two (at good pay rate) teaching me how to use it?
Google this question and you'll get a slew of review postings!

max pics to download to computer

direct download to computer?
Believe so, but don't usually do it that way myself. It has a USB connection for that. Why not use an inexpensive card reader with a USB connection instead? Saves battery and table space/setup.

Can the GPS be turned off?

I would like to know if you can disable the GPS system if you don't want it and want to save the battery.
Should be able to be turned off! Look in the manual!

Nikon Coolpix 900 Sports Mode

When taking pictures in Sports mode or continuous shooting mode... does the viewfinder go black or can you still see the objects you are photographing through the viewfinder?
You won't see the actual shots as they are being taken as they have to be processed through the buffering system till they are able to be displayed on screen, They show as a stack.

Is there any setting that allows more than the 7 burst shots , then waiting for the buffering to complete, I miss additional shots...Any ideas on how

Look in the menu for the great selection of shooting modes and you can select a 16 shot burst and even a pre-shooting cache. Also, you can lower the burst rate and I'd advise using a really fast memory card to offset the buffering. Almost all but the very high end cameras encounter buffering delay/write to the camera.

I believe so, but why don't you just try it?!

can the P900 be charged via the USB computer hook up

Check the manual or go to Nikon support online for the best answer. Better to get a spare battery and keep one charged for when needed. These are inexpensive enough and you can even get a car charger.
