I believe most of us dreamed of becoming an astronomer in our childhood. When I was young, I was so fascinated by the sky that is full of stars and wondering what is really happening out there.

Nikon Coolpix A in Action: Photos, Tips and Thoughts

After the previous post, I think everybody more or less knows how Nikon Coolpix A looks like. However, the photo quality is always the top factor to evaluate a camera's capability.
