Is it possible to focus this camera? After the install the image is blurry. Thanks.

No. There is no adjustment to that camera, it it's completely fixed. If it is blurry, it is likely a bad camera.

YES. It's a very simple process. Loosen the screw beside the lens. Use small needle nosed pliers to screw the lens in or out until you get a good focus, then re tighten the side screw. That's it. You're done.

i used mine this past weekend in a low light indoor situation, I wasn't happy at all with the results. I find this camera very hard to get crisp clear pictures. Not happy with my purchase, its very sensitive to blurring.

Hi Allison, yes you can. Set the camera to either one of these settings, Aperture priority or Manual mode and set the aperture to the highest f stop (lowest number), also change the focus area to flexible spot to enable you to choose which area to focus on. Thanks_Mitch

try putting the camera on a table and taking a picture while is absolutely still. If it is still blurry I would call Nikon

well, i got the camera....was in loosely packed condition but intact. i took some shots after charging the battery. The auto-focus makes quite audible noise while focussing. However, the pictures are clear if you know how to work with settings.

We have had many dissapointing 'fuzzy' pics as well. Especially indoors with the flash. Please see my review here (if they print it)! Essentially, our old 2 megapixel 'FujiFilm' cam puts the Olympus pics to shame. Maybe we got a defective unit?

have you check the ISO youre using? I had the same problem when i had my setting at the highest ISO. I now just leave it as AUTO and have great pics. If thats not the problem, then i dunno what is. Sorry!

You have to focus using the telescope. From the time you mount it the camera can only adjust ISO, the rest is fully manual.

I as well have a focus problem, I have to bump the zoom a bit when I first start the camera. Not aware of any solutions and am looking for a warranty fix.

I'm having this issue, too. Camera seems to get confused and the whole frame becomes blurry rather than focusing on the one object. It takes several attempts to register what I'm trying to do, and then it's too late - opportunity has passed and subject has moved. Time to really study my manual I guess or maybe this is a shortcoming with this camera.

I have the same problem with this camera. Focus is soft and there are noticeable chromatic aberrations (aura you're talking about), there's also noticeable barrel effect (people look wider off-center). Honestly, optics is pretty bad on this camera. The focusing system also seems to be hit and miss but mostly miss. I set mine in manual mode with center focusing and even then the image is far from what I'm used to call "in focus". I'm surprised this camera is rated this high. My older Canon S410 takes consistently better images.

I noticed that you have to have proper lighting for the camera to focus. If not you never get the green light to take the picture. Outside of that may just be a dirty lense.

Has anyone else found it impossible to get the fisheye to focus? It's blurry as heck.

I actually am going to try and return the Nikon CoolPix I recently purchased. The auto focus is not working correctly and the zoom takes too long to focus to take good action pictures. Once focused, it goes blurry when you snap the picture. May be only my camera, but I was unable to take ANY pictures of my daughter when she rode in an evening parade recently. I suspect it has a defective auto focus since no one else can get it to work either. You might want to go to a local camera store and try one out before purchasing. The camera is nice sized and has a great zoom ability which is why I bought it to use at my daughter's horse shows.

Sorry, I can't help. I bought this camera for a vacation that got postponed. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. :(

First, I'm in the market to buy this camera, I don't own one. I'm not trying to complain about the posts so far, but I'm wondering if you are simply using the auto mode when indoors, or have you tried other modes (Indoor Mode), ISO speeds, etc that the camera comes equipped with? If the images are "VERY POOR", what exactly have you tested? (Others report indoor images have been good).
