"Work Horse."

It is worth the trade-off when doing astro-photography. The battery that does come with the camera lasts a long time. But that's what this entry level camera is all about. All other cameras in this category are much more expensive. The body is well balanced when using the large Art series of lenses.

"Love this camera."

If you are a point and shoot person forget it here. This lens is a good complement to the existing ones I have. However on contacting Nikon about it, they sent us a memory card. It is worth the trade-off when doing astro-photography. Though I have nothing to complain about the Nikon 1524.

"It works very well."

I finally decided I liked the features of the Nikon line. The extra batteries don't work all that well. Overall, very happy with the purchase. Just buy this, you will not regret it. Have used Nikon cameras all the way back to 35mm.
