Nikon Coolpix S600 10MP Digital Camera review From the solid feel and comfortable grip of one of the world's smallest compact stainless-steel bodies to its large, easy-access control buttons and 2.7-inch high-resolution LCD monitor, the Nikon Coolpix S600 is a joy to carry and to take pictures with. Nikon Coolpix S600 digital camera features The world's fastest start-up time in its class Optimized for the one of the world's fastest start-up times, the Cool pix S600 frees you to capture special moments as you experience them. The Coolpix S600 has a start-up time within 0.7 seconds and realizes fast AF. VR image stabilization Nikon's optical lens shift VR image stabilization compensates for camera shake to produce clearer, sharper results in lower light or unsteady conditions. Active full time, VR's stabilizing effects also aid in smooth, easy framing and shooting. ISO 3200 capability Light sensitivity range up to ISO 3200 with manual control or auto control (up to ISO 800) creates new opportunities to take sharper, more natural-looking photos in lower light conditions, or to capture fast-moving subjects with outstanding clarity. Other features 10.0 effective megapixel clarity Active Child mode automatically tracks and focuses on the subject when the OK button is pressed Pastel mode creates a soft, impressionistic image when enabled before shooting Incredible, bright 2.7-inch approx. 230k-dot, wide viewing angle TFT LCD monitor with anti-reflection coating Coolpix Premium Features Coolpix in-camera technologies give you the edge when it comes to taking beautiful pictures more easily and with greater enjoyment. Included are innovative functions that increase shooting opportunities in a broader range of situations, help to optimize images, and add a new dimension of fun to sharing those results. VR image stabilization Nikon Coolpix cameras offer an array of VR technologies that produce blur-free images when shooting in unsteady conditions or at slower shutter speeds. Selected models are equipped with one of two types of Optical VR, Lens Shift VR, which delivers sharp and steady images effective for shooting and faster framing with the LCD, or Image Sensor Shift VR, which moves the image sensor to accurately compensate for camera shake. Other models offer Electronic VR which applies movement data to image processing to turn blurred images into beautifully clear results. Better pictures in lower light Selected Coolpix models offer ISO capability beyond the range of conventional digital compacts. An exciting advantage that greatly increases photographic possibilities, high ISO capability delivers excellent exposure in challenging conditions, broadens the scope of possible subjects and allows scenes to be captured beautifully without compromising natural light. Face-priority AF Available only with Nikon Coolpix cameras, the clever Face-priority AF function helps ensure satisfyingly crisp portraits no matter where the subject is in the shot. By automatically detecting people's faces in the frame, the photographer is free to press the shutter for sharp portraits with focus exactly where it's wanted. D-Lighting Only Nikon delivers the advantage of D-Lighting, a unique technology with the ability to rescue underexposed images or shots taken with excessive backlight. Accessible in Playback mode, this innovative feature automatically creates a copy of the image, adding light and detail added where necessary, while leaving correctly-exposed areas untouched. As a result, images are significantly improved in a manner that is much more natural looking. In-camera red-eye fix Coolpix cameras offer refined red-eye reduction capability that surpasses other digital compacts. First, a series of pre-flashes stimulate the subject's pupils, causing them to constrict. The camera then analyzes the captured image for the remaining presence of red eyes, automatically correcting them in-camera before saving the image to memory. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nikon Coolpix S600 digital camera customer reviews Nikon Coolpix S600 Digital camera I am very pleased with this very small, compact Nikon camera. The telephoto, and wide angle are exceptional.. With the added free shipping, to the already low price, the value was superb.. A++ Brian This is the BEST camera I have ever had I take a lot of wildlife pictures, and the "Active Child" setting is PERFECT for my needs. This camera has helped me take the most stunning pictures I have ever been able to take. I am an amateur photographer, and this camera has all of the features I need to take my pictures from being good to being great. I definitely recommend reading the manual 1st, though, and I may even re-read now that I have had the camera for a month. Awesome buy - great value for the money! Nikon Coolpix 600 Fulfills Expectations Having owned many Nikons, starting with the original Nikon F SLR, and having been a professional photographer with NASA in the 1970s, I long ago gave up carrying a heavy bag of multiple camera bodies and several lenses. I bought the Coolpix 600 to have something I could stick in my fanny pack and because there are a bunch of great cameras available (makes your head spin) I based this purchase on a key capability -- a wide angle greater than the usual 35mm equivalent and considered Nikon, Canon and a few other makes. Owning a Coolpix 995, and being an unabashed Nikon fan, the Coolpix 600 won out. One has to marvel at the electronic wizardry in today's cameras -- vibration reduction (hand-held shots that are sharp at as low as 1/4 sec shutter speed!), 10 megapixels and an interface I'm familiar with. Actually, it's even simpler to make changes than the 995. Of course, this isn't a Nikon D300 (my next purchase if I can justify it), but in the meantime, the Coolpix 600 is a camera I can carry easily and takes great pictures with all the advantages of the latest electronic features in an almost too small package. I do miss a viewfinder, but am essentially very happy with this purchase. It is a perfect compromise. I broke it in during a trip to Chicago and it will get a thorough workout in a couple of months in Dublin and Cornwall.
