What battery does the Nikon COOLPIX L4 use?

What memory card does the Nikon COOLPIX L4 take?
Nikon COOLPIX L4 uses SD (Secure Digital). The current buyer-facing maximum is Up to 2GB (SD); for older or unusual formats, stay within that limit and avoid oversized cards. See the memory card guide before buying cards for older cameras.
Is the Nikon COOLPIX L4 worth buying used?
It can be worth buying if you want a 4.0 MP effective Nikon digital camera from 2006 with 1/2.5-inch CCD. Check power, lens movement, screen condition, and storage access before paying. Run the used digital camera checklist before buying. For nearby Nikon options, compare Nikon Coolpix L330 and Nikon COOLPIX L5.
How do you transfer photos from the Nikon COOLPIX L4?
The simplest transfer path is usually to remove the memory card and use a compatible card reader. If the camera uses internal storage or a rare card format, confirm the cable or reader before buying. The card reader guide and photo transfer guide cover the common options.
Nikon COOLPIX L4 is worth judging as its own Nikon entry compact body, not just as a generic old compact. Start with condition, the exact battery/card setup, and whether its look fits what you want to shoot.
What owners like
Nikon COOLPIX L4 works best when you want starter-friendly simple snapshots, direct flash, and low-pressure learning rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its 1/2.5-inch CCD and 38-116mm equivalent, 3x optical zoom are the main character of the look.
Common complaints
Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
What to compare
Compare it with Nikon COOLPIX L2, Nikon COOLPIX L3, Nikon COOLPIX L100, Nikon Coolpix L610 to decide whether you want this exact body, a cheaper nearby compact, or a slightly more capable alternative.
