2 out of 5 stars Nikon S600   July 31, 2008
  1 out of 2 found this review helpful

MADE IN CHINA! Fast start up, but SLOW shutter. Small size, very pocketable. I have a Canon 790 IS, 3 inch lcd, out performs this S600 by leaps in all respects, and is made in Japan. Also, the S600 battery charger is cheapo corded unit, most up to date chargers are directly pluggable to hang on an outlet.


4 out of 5 stars Fairly good product   July 24, 2008
Fairly good product for the price.

Pros: Super fast start up. Intuitive interface. Beautiful outlook.

Cons: not so good auto white balance (but manual works well). Noisy at high ISO (but 200 is fairly good).

Bottom line: nice point-and-shoot small, handy camera. Recommended for shooting daily family photos.



3 out of 5 stars Disappointing Nikon   July 22, 2008
  11 out of 12 found this review helpful

Got this camera for the wide angle lens, Nikon name and small size only to be sorely disappointed. The pictures are great, don't get me wrong, and I agree with the other reviews. However, as you can see there are one or two people who rate this camera very negatively. They are right, and I suspect that others who would rank this Nikon very low are just not bothering to write. If your fingers are just the right size I bet you'd find the scroll wheel very handy to navigate all the features. I just find it a clumsy solution to what Panasonic has done so much better. It's difficult to switch modes as you have to use the wheel to identify on the display screen if you want portrait, bright sunlight, no flash etc. You might say that the camera takes care of most of these functions automatically and to a degree you'd be right. Except of course for those situations that you would need this otherwise fast start up camera to listen quickly to what you would want it to do! And here's the other thing: shutter lag. For its extremely fast startup, the S600 is just painfully slow in between shots, something I thought I could live with but that in practice is annoying to say the least. My last gripe is about the battery. If I don't use a camera for a few days I don't expect the battery to drain by itself. That's right, I have taken perhaps 15 pictures, most in broad daylight, then didn't use the camera for about 5 days and the battery was dead, empty, non-responsive. After a recharge the camera came back to life but how do you like that? Back to Panasonic for the wide angle lens. Nikon, shame on you.


5 out of 5 stars Great Camera   July 19, 2008
I have no idea why this camera got so many bad reviews. I find it to be a great camera with awesome features and ease of operation. Pictures are crisp and lusterous in color.


5 out of 5 stars Great camera   July 7, 2008
Very fast camera. I've taken several pics in low light environments without the use of the flash and have excellent quality images. Also the VR feature has saved many shots taken from a moving vehicle. I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a point & shoot camera.Nikon Coolpix S600 10MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Optical Zoom with Vibration Reduction (Slate Black)
