Nikon 1 J1 Test

I was told by quite a few friends and friends of friends, one of which a professional photographer, that the Nikon 1 was the camera for me. Purchased from Jessops a couple of days ago, they also confirmed this is what I was looking for, plus 50 pound cash back from Nikon was a plus too. 

The camera itself is considerably well made. It compliments my iPhone 5 very nicely actually and that is saying something. Overall build quality is exceptional.

Use of the camera is very good too. Turn on time is a couple of seconds and its the same for it to come back to life after capturing a shot. The continuos shoot mode is fantastic but does get in the way when only wanting to take the one. The only draw back is the flip up flash. You need to press a button and up pops the flash, fine if your ready for it but a pain if your not.

Supplied were a 10-30 and a 30-110 lens, both of which are very easily changed. Battery life is exceptional too. It lasted the whole day without it even being turned off.

Would fully recommend to anyone not wanting to carry around a full dslr. A brilliant little camera and I can't wait to take it on more adventures!!
