Digital camera reviews of Nikon Coolpix S50 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Vibration Reduction Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: Great size, but at the expense of picture quality
Summary: 3 Stars
PROS: the worst picture is the one not taken, and with it's size you can always have this camera with you. The large rear-screen is nice. the camera has a ton of features and settings, so many that it takes some time to scroll through them to find the right one for lighting conditions. CONS: It is not really "point and shoot", if you have a fast moving subject or challenging lighting conditions, you have to take some time to find the proper settings, or you get a blurred or grainy picture. the large screen pushes the control panel to one side, which is then difficult to grip without hitting a button unwillingly.Digital camera Review: Great ultracompact camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had the s50 for about 3 weeks now and it is great. The pictures are very sharp and there are a number of different shooting modes to help. It cannot replace a D-SLR, but for its type it is one of the best cameras I've tried. The s50 has a quick start up time and although I was reluctant to give up a viewfinder, viewing through the 3 inch LCD is not bad even outside. In direct sunlight it needs to be shaded though. I'm skeptical of the face recognition software however. It takes a long time to find faces and I find it easier to just focus on a face then frame the picture. All in all I am very happy with the performance of this camera and highly suggest it.Digital camera Review: Huge disappointment!!

Hi everybody, I finally got rid of this camera. I put a sample picture that was taken in vivid color and Fine mode. What should I have done is crop the pic and show you how watery, noisy and grainy the picture was. As someone mentioned, on the camera's screen it showed fine, once you download them to your PC and see them at full resolution, which I mean, the actual size, you will see no details at all. So if you want to take advantage of the 7.2 MP and want to print a poster of your baby, you will be greatly disappointed. The camera in itself is very elegant but the pictures are worthless. I am still searching for a compact camera to take everywhere, I already have a Nikon D50 which takes absolutely gorgeous pictures, I love my D50, too bad the S50 is in no means comparable to it.
Well, back to the search for the perfect compact camera...
Digital camera Review: It has everything.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my second Nikon camera, and it is absolutely amazing. The pictures are of great quality and the shutter speed is fast, so you don't miss a second. This camera has amazing features such as creating a slideshow with your own music uploaded from your computer as well as great video quality in its compact size. I love the 3 inch lcd screen which displays everything brightly. I strongly recommend this camera.Digital camera Review: Just bought this in Tokyo -- Superb!
Summary: 5 Stars
We just visited a camera shop in Tokyo (in Shibuya). We tried almost all the cameras and this was our favorite. The salesman told us it had just come in and gone on sale today. Superb set of features, very nice in the hand. We shot a bunch of pictures under artificial lights and in the streets at night and they all look wonderful. Highly recommend you give this camera a look if you are in the market for a small, full feature digital pocket camera.
