The Nikon 1 J2 is smart
Stylish and looks like it can handle a few knocks thanks to its solid and high quality construction. It's also very user-friendly
Meaning pretty much anyone can pick it up and start shooting great images - but it’s also quite capable in the hands of a more snap savvy user.On closer inspection

The editors didn't like
While the Nikon 1 J2 is great for beginners
Those wanting to make the most of the advanced options are going to struggle
Simply because of the controls. Changing up more advanced options is a bit of a chore
But flicking through the various pre-set fun filters is a piece of cake. Lacking a viewfinder
Or even a hotshoe to mount one
Some shots might be harder to shoot than others too
And due t
Low resolution
Some stepped compensation in films
Expensive
Little new compared to predecessor
Small sensor image quality a little behind its competitors
Difficult menu system for more advanced users
Some auto white balance inconsistencies
Electronic-only shutter
No hotshoe
No possibility of viewfinder
Slow
Small sensor
No viewfinder
Poor art filters
Though the market has moved on
Hardly a jot has changed feature-wise when compared to the year-old J1
Picture quality is acceptable but only marginally better than your average snapshot

Die Nikons 1 J2 erzielte trotz guter Fotoqualität keine bessere Gesamtnote. Denn die Systemkamera ist einfach zu mager ausgestattet und versteckt häufiger benötigte Automatikfunktionen im Bildschirmmenü. Die schlichte Optik dagegen überzeugt.Günstigster P...
