So, soccer moms.this is not the camera. I always enjoyed Nikon and this camera has been a huge disappointed. I takes along time to do quick action pictures compared to other cameras. It also picks up a lot of red in burnette hair. BIG BIG BIG DISAPPOINTMENT for Nikon.
The camera is nice for its compact size and large screen. The pictures are sharp and clear, and the camera comes with tons of different functions that are more than just fancy titles. I bought this camera to upgrade from a 5 megapixel Kodak, and I was pleased as soon as I opened the box. The only thing that bothers me about the camera is the optical zoom. The Night Landscape function was particularly impressive; a steady hand or, even better, a tripod will take awesome pictures of low light scenes. Battery life is decent, but a spare wouldn't be a bad idea. My last camera had a 10x optical, so it was a little disappointing to go down to a 4x, but that's pretty standard for your average digital point-and-shoot. I'm very pleased with this product.
This is a great little camera. I especially like the fact that it takes good pictures in low light when you can't use a flash.
I know cameras aren't made to be dropped, but this one REALLY doesn't do well for klutzy people. The image quality wasn't that great either. I dropped it maybe 3 times before it broke. The cover to the zoom stopped closing after a month or so, then it stopped moving in and out altogether after that final drop. Get an Olympus, they're more durable and take better photos. I know they're more expensive, but not if you have to keep replacing this flimsy thing.
Very user friendly and all the modes that I was looking for in a camera. I'm a beginning photography student. I have many camera's but this Nikon Coolpix S600 (10MP)has EVERYTHING a person could want. It shoots in Standard Color, Vivid Color, Sepia, B&W, Cyanotype and Pastel but it also has all the standard shooting modes we've gotten used to having. There's much I still have to learn but it's been lots of fun doing it with this camera.
