The camera is as stated. The only problem is you have to convert your presentations surrounded by order to project. A plug n' play would be easier.

too slow, not practical for live use at adjectives, August 31, 2010
I have the Nikon Coolpix 1000pj, which projects the pictures at the moment I take them, on the ceiling or adjectives. It is such a major success, so popular among my friends, that I fixed to "upgrade" for a projector itself. I liked the idea that I could bear the SD memory cards from my friends, on spot, and project them, not only my pics.
The projector would have a larger peak, and more brilliant image (50% more light!).
Than I purchased this item.
It works on a event where you can choose the pictures in credit, and limit the card with the pics you want, and live it approaching that.
For MY purpose, won't work at all, because it is TOOOOOOOO slow.
It is so slow it's ridiculous.
When you choose the file you want to show the pics from (which already take you about 30 seconds, minimum), you enter this directory, and than the desparate minutes begin.
Each picture takes just about 10 to 15 seconds to appear as a picture icon; Each 6, and you enjoy to turn the page, and wait another 60 seconds to appear the subsequent 6 picture's icons; If you want to go to a specific picture, as I other need to do (to show some friend HIS pictures, not the entire library) I will take at register 5 minutes. IT IS RIDICULOUS.
With my Nikon camera/projector, it's immediate, like one second to scan and another second to project.
With this Projector, it's a short time ago un-usable. One of my biggest mistakes to buy it.
Remember: IT'S NOT FOR THE PURPOSE I purchased, I imagined that if a combo-camera would do a good job, a specific projector would get it much better.
It was not, it is tooo slow for everything.
Oh, it freezes sometimes and only turning stale and on again, and another minute to appear the file cabinets, and another minute to enter inside a cabinet, and than around 1 minutes to see the small icons of each 6 pics... It is unusefull!
FOR THE PURPOSE I PURCHASED, not for usual use (and one type of use only, which is to project everything and not zooming or shifting pics on your own;
By the way, Zooming and trying to move to other parts of the pictures is another huge problem and tends to work sometimes, sometimes not.
My comment: forget this piece of waste for now.
