Question 1

Can you set this camera so that pictures will automatically go to my computer?  Thanks for answering.

Accepted Answer

The download via a USB cable is quick and easy. You have to have a microchip card reader to store the images. In the owners quick guide manual it lists a Nikon NX2 website where you download the free software. The entire owners manual is online at Nikon. After you download the Nikon NX2 software you must plug in the camera with a USB connector which connects the camera to your computer and the NX2 software. If not done the computer won't show the images from the card reader. 1. Open the box. 2. Read the Quick Guide3. Download the entire owners manual online and READ.4. Pull sticker off of front of camera - Optional as can do later or earlier.5. Attach the strap.6. Put in batteries.7. Camera guides you through initial setup. This is pretty easy.8. Insert Memory Card reader chip/disc. I use 8GB.9. Start by taking a few pictures, deleting, adding, and adjusting the options to your needs. I include the date stamp on my photos.10. Go to online Nikon NX2 website and download the free software to use with the L32.     a. Read the instructions and use the HELP button on top if needed. There also is a toll free number if needed.     b. You can use the top tabs to set to you needs. I set NX2 to download just the new photos/videos.      c. You can select the tabs on top or to the right. Use the back buttons. Just go in and experiment and remember if I can do it you sure can. 11. Now, the fun part. After taking your photos/videos connect the cable with your micro card reader. I use a Dynex from Best Buy. The first download will be in a folder called Nikon Transfer 001. On the next transfer it will be 002 and so on. What I do is move the photos/videos from 002 to 001 by dragging them into it and deleting 002. Or when downloading you choose the number of folder to download to. I find dragging and copying the ones I want easier.12. Be sure to register your camera and take good care of it. I am getting the hard case so I don't drop this one like I did with the L24.13. Be sure to have your memories backed up. I have been using Online Carbonite for years as my computers over the years have crashed and burned and Carbonite restored my files to my new computer. It is peace of mind.     a. In addition I burned my photos/videos to a Sony DVD+R Disc and can share with family and friends. After doing this I delete the images on my Nikon camera that frees up more space on the chip card reader.14. Finally, I am from the old school of 35mm rolls of film and I got my first digital camera Coolpix L24 about 3 years ago. I had it for one year and discovered the video function. Goes to show I should have read the owners manual better. With the L32 the video button is on the console and easy to use. I love this camera a lot as it is improved greatly from the L24. It is faster, easier, better quality in images being sharp, crisp, and clear, and just a super camera for all ages.  It fits in the palm of your hand. It feels like metal to me and I like the red color a lot. The Nikon team will HELP if needed. Also, Amazon packaged the box superbly!! It arrived in a larger box with large blown up bubble wrap and arrived right at my front door in pristine condition and ahead of schedule! Shippers at times have a tendency to handled packages roughly but when Amazon ships you have peace of mind the product will arrive in mint condition.If you have had a prior digital camera, never had one before, and/or would like to give as a gift to someone this is the one to get. I received my L24 as a gift and so glad because my 35mm camera by Kodak went the way of the dinosaur - extinct:)

Question 2

What kind of memory doe  it take ? Mirco or full size SD?

Accepted Answer

Hi, the Nikon Coolpix L32 uses full size SD cards, i use this one in the nikon and it works very well http://amzn.to/2egwin6  but you can use microSD too, cause the most of them cam with an SD adapter

Question 3

is this camera water proof  how s the pics

Accepted Answer

If you are concerned about getting the camera wet I'd recommend the hard cover case for protection or even the extended warranty for a nominal price that has added protection. I would recommend the added protection if giving to a young person not only for rain water but it if is accidently dropped. I dropped my L24 after 3 years and decided to get this new L32. The quality of the pictures/video images are crisp, clear, and so is the audio of the videos! The camera is easy to use for all ages. Comes with my highest recommendation.
