Components
Speed/TimingAll speed and timing tests were shot using a fast 4GB SanDisk Extreme III SDHC card, to eliminate any memory bottlenecks that might affect the results.
Nearly three seconds elapsed between the moment we turned on the camera and our first chance to take a photo. This would seem like forever if your little darling was exhibiting painfully cute behavior you just had to capture, but when it comes to compact cameras, it's pretty much business as usual.
Shot-to-Shot (7.09)
We don't expect this class of camera to blast through a sequence of photos with blinding speed, but even in the land of diminished expectations, the F60fd disappointed. In the best full-resolution shooting mode, the camera took nearly three seconds between shots, making this camera a very questionable companion for athletic events or other fast-moving situations. Faster burst modes are available, producing as many as five images a second, but these modes can only shoot 3-megapixel images.
Shutter-Shot (3.13)
Shutter lag is the delay you experience between the moment you press the shutter down and the moment the camera takes a picture. Once a major annoyance when shooting with compact cameras, we generally find this delay has been pared down to minimal levels. The F60fd, though, exhibited a lag of over half a second, long enough to be noticeable when trying to capture a fast-moving scene.

Nikon Coolpix L810 First Impressions Review
Nikon’s L810 is a AA-powered ultrazoom that somehow manages 26x for under $300. Some cost-cutting efforts have certainly been made, and controls are quite simplified, but for the right user this could be an ideal camera. Read More...
