This Camera is a HOT item, for your hands
Nikon USA said in a statement that a circuit problem in certain units could cause the battery compartment of the Coolpix 2000 to overheat. Temperatures could get high enough to cause parts of the camera's plastic case to melt.

While never one of the top-selling brands, Nikon cameras have won a loyal following among professional photographers and serious hobbyists. The company's reputation was tarnished late last year, however, when it had to halt production of its $1,100 Coolpix 5000 camera. In certain conditions, the camera became crippled if the owner switched it on without removing the lens cap first.

That gave me a laugh this morning.
