  Beware the dreaded "lens error" July 5, 2008 Very clever, capable and pocketable P&S, but far too fragile for most purposes. My S600 became a piece of junk in <3 weeks of routine use after succumbing to the fatal and all-too-common "lens error". None of the user fixes described on the internet could revive it.
All 8 previously owned digital SLR and P&S cameras have proven far more durable than this otherwise worthy P&S. IMO, an unrecoverable failure mode as prevalent as the 'lens error' is prima facie evidence of a fundamental design flaw, but Nikon considers it prima facie evidence of user mishandling. Their 'warranty' repair fee generally exceeds the street price of the camera.
NB: At the very least, this camera requires a case stiff enough to preclude =any= possibility of inadvertent power-up, the most likely proximal cause of death for my S600.

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 June 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
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 June 14, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
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.
  amazing little camera June 12, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've had alot of compact digital cameras (I seem to have a penchant for losing them), mostly Canons and Sonys, but this little Nikon is by far the best. It takes the sharpest pictures and most of all, it's free of that annoying split second delay that you find on most digital cams. The battery life is decent, but it's a good idea to buy a second battery and keep it charged in the little cloth Nikon case you can buy with the camera. It fits in a shirt pocket and is ready to shoot at a moment's notice. I absolutely love it and recommend it without reservation. Now, if I can avoid losing it.....Nikon Coolpix S600 10MP Digital Camera with 4x Wide Angle Optical Zoom with Vibration Reduction (Slate Black)
