Digital camera reviews of Nikon Coolpix S550 10MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom (Plum)
Digital camera Review: An extremely disappointing experience.
Summary: 1 Stars
I was delighted with this camera when I first got it: it's small enough to carry everywhere, and the picture quality was excellent for a point-and-shoot.
Just before the one-year warranty expired, however, it failed completely. The screen would show only black, and any photos taken were similarly black. I contacted Nikon tech support, but none of their tips worked. As I couldn't get it back to Nikon in time, I'm out over $200 which I don't consider a good deal for under a year of snapshots.
I'm very disappointed with this purchase.

Smart, and fast 10 megapixel camera with the smallest body in the world for its class. The 5x Zoom-NIKKOR lens brings distant subjects up close and Vibration Reduction means there is no need to worry about image blur caused by slight hand movements. All camera functions are engineered for fast response and the innovative Smile and Blink recognition functions help capture perfect portraits with smiling faces and open eyes. The COOLPIX S550 - perfect for portraits, practical for everyday use.Digital Cameras
