CNET have posted a Nikon Coolpix 5900 review and rated the camera a 6.8 out of 10 or Good.

"Snapshot photographers will like the Coolpix 5900's good image quality, generous assortment of scene modes (five with framing-assist options), and Best Shot mode, which saves only the sharpest image in a series. But the paucity of manual controls reduces the allure for photo enthusiasts, while poor low-light autofocus and an inaccurate optical viewfinder will disappoint photographers of all sorts.

A few fun and useful features spice up this competent 5-megapixel point-and-shoot Nikon Coolpix 5900, aimed at snapshot photographers."

Seems like a fine camera for snapshot photographers but don't expect a lot of manual controls.
