Nikon Coolpix AW110 review: Rugged camera ready to shoot and share
If you're looking for a rugged camera, but don't want to sacrifice on-the-go sharing, the Nikon Coolpix AW110 is a good place to start. The Nikon Coolpix AW110 is a fairly minor update to 2012's AW100, as you may have figured out by the incremental model number change.
Pros:
- The Nikon Coolpix AW110 is rated to survive being underwater down to 59 feet and drops of up to 6.6 feet along with being freezeproof and dustproof
- has built-in GPS for geotagging among other things and Wi-Fi for easy shooting and sharing with iOS and Android devices
- It is well priced considering its features and durability specs.
Cons:
- While its shooting performance is good
- the camera's spongy buttons might slow you down a bit and the camera's slow lens requires a lot of light to get the best shots.

Nikon Coolpix AW110 Review
The rugged Nikon Coolpix AW110 is a modest update to its predecessor, the AW100. It can go deeper under water and adds Wi-Fi, but still suffers at high ISO settings. The Nikon Coolpix AW110 ($349.95 direct) is the follow-up to the AW100, a tough compact that won our Editors' Choice award when we reviewed it back in late 2011. The 16-megapixel AW110 improves upon the earlier model in small ways, including an improved underwater depth rating and built-in Wi-Fi, but it's not a drastically different camera. Other tough cams have added wider-aperture lenses, macro LED lights, and other features that make the category a bit more competitive. Our Editors' Choice rugged compact is one of those, the Olympus Tough TG-2 iHS( at Amazon); it's only $30 more than the Nikon, and packs an f/2 lens that makes it a more versatile low-light shooter. Design and Features The AW110($399.99 at Amazon) follows the traditional tough camera design scheme. The lens is an internal zoom design, located in the top corner of the body. The camera itself measures 2.6 by 4.4 by 1 inch and weighs 6.9 ounces. Its tough exterior can survive drops from a 6.6-foot height, can oper...

- Waterproof to 59 feet
- Action button

This is a great camera for underwater pics and to take with you on a more rough environment like ski slopes but for anything else it doesn't worth the money. The pics quality is pretty poor (my phone actually makes better pics) and the menu is not very intuitive.

Fun in the sun
This is my first Nikon camera and I was very impressed with the options and the look of the camera. Compared to the Canon waterproof camera, this one seemed well built, solid, with great specs. It works really well during the day, the colors are vivid and the quality is good.
Pros:
- easy to set up
- waterproof
Cons:
- weak flash
- blurry pictures in low light

Beautiful camera.
Got this nice / expensive camera as a gift, finally took it under water for some scuba pictures and FIRST dive, well under the indicated depth limits and it died.<br />Total baummer dude!! I expected so much more out of this well known brand. I got a lemon, I suppose.
Pros:
- Great Resolution
- Large Clear LCD
- Small / Compact
Cons:
- Complicated Controls
- Limited Zoom
- Poor in Low Light

Nikon Coolpix AW110 Review
Nikon as mentioned earlier is a new comer to the waterproof/rugged camera scene. It is only Nikon's second rugged compact, yet it packs most the features found on cameras that have been around for generations in terms of its design and handling, features, performance and photo quality.
