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

I have the Nikon Coolpix 1000pj, which projects the pictures at the moment I take them, on the ceiling or all. It is such a major success, so popular among my friends, that I decided to “upgrade” for a projector itself. I liked the idea that I could take the SD memory cards from my friends, on spot, and project them, not only my pics.
The projector would have a larger screen, and more brilliant image (50% more light!).
Than I purchased this item.
It works on a party where you can choose the pictures in advance, and limit the card with the pics you want, and live it like 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 takes you about 30 seconds, minimum), you enter this file, and than the desparate minutes begin.
Each picture takes about 10 to 15 seconds to appear as a picture icon; Each 6, and you have to turn the page, and wait another 60 seconds to appear the next 6 picture’s icons; If you want to go to a specific picture, as I always need to do (to show some friend HIS pictures, not the entire library) I will take at list 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 just 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 make it much better.
It was not, it is tooo slow for everything.
Oh, it freezes sometimes and only turning off and on again, and another minute to appear the file cabinets, and another minute to enter inside a cabinet, and than about 1 minutes to see the small icons of each 6 pics… It is unusefull!
FOR THE PURPOSE I PURCHASED, not for normal use (and one type of use only, which is to project everything and not zooming or changing 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 garbage for now.
