Nikon Coolpix S630 12MP Digital Camera with 7x Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Zoom and 2.7 inch LCD (Jet Black)
- The camera actually feels pretty solid in my hands, you can tell it\'s plastic but it doesn\'t feel cheap overall. The pictures I took came out great, everything was clear even on most of the 7x zoom shots (more zoom = you need to move less). I am very happy with the quality of the lens and the layout. Nikon really gave it some extras such as using a zoom ring and a comfortable thumb rest while shooting (portrait and landscape modes). I am pleased with the shooting response time (from powering on to taking a picture) and have not experienced any shutter lag (I know that it IS slower than others, but really if you\'re getting a small point and shoot you have to give up something when the camera is $225.) I did play around with some of the features such as messing with the AUTO settings and the automatic smile mode. I didn\'t find the auto smile mode (it shoots when it senses a smile) to be that worthwhile. There are a lot of scene modes which can be overwhelming, but the auto scene selector works great! I have not done enough testing to see how the color really turns out under different settings.I gave this 4 stars and not a full 5 for a few reasons that are more personal annoyances than performance issues. The first is that the little dial on the back feels cheap. I would have rather this been metal. It doesn\'t affect performance, but it does take away from the experience when you feel it. The second problem is that the menu is terrible. Nikon needs to put some R&D into making a menu that is very intuitive and user friendly. A nice GUI would really go a long way - this looks like a theme from DOS when you perform certain actions (such as format the card). Another thing is while looking at the thumbnails it is a pain to zoom back out. There is no quick way to get back to the picture in original size. Instead you have to zoom out .2x each time. Yow can hold it down, but then it goes to the view where you can see multiple thumbnails on the screen. A .5 or 1 second delay would help this out. The smallest complaint is that the charger does not have a flip out plug, you have to take the charging unit AND the (long) cord with you when you travel.All in all these are tiny complaints for such a great camera. I recommend getting a case and screen protector for it and of course a large SDHC card and extra battery (from experience). Really this is a great camera for a little over $220 (at the time of this review). As with anything make sure you do research and try to get a hands on demo before buying it.
- ---At this point, I\'m still trying to get use to my new camera. But, it\'s not as easy as I thoughtit would be. Without the dock to use when not in use, makes it harder to use continuously. If it wasn\'t for the extra battery I bought to go along with it, the evening pictures I took wouldn\'t have been here from our last camping trip. It\'s disapointing to have to change batteries every 8 hours when a dock would have kept the camera ready for use for longer time.---It\'s also disappointing for me to not be able to take more pictures before having to change the battery. But, for the price I paid, that will have to be something I\'ll have to get use to. Let me explain!! When you are riding on a back of a motorcycle, you must have a camera that will react to the movement and the shots that you are taking. Sometimes you will go longer than 8 hours and other times itcould be a 300 mile trip and take more than 220 pictures at a time. But if the battery goes dead before that it\'s a bit hard to change the battery as you move down the highway. My other camera I had for 3 years got broke. Spent money to get it fixed, it came back and was terrible.Don\'t have any idea what I was doing wrong. So this was my next choice and it\'s really going to take patiences to get it to do what I want it to do and when. When you switch like this from one to another, you will lose something and what I lost was something I came to expect. Which is what I wanted this camera to do.---As for the camera itself, I love it. Traveling as we do, it fits in my hand quite nicely and can take some great shots moving or sitting still. I can\'t say that I\'m disapoointed in that part of it at all. I don\'t take pictures of just one thing and it falls right in there with what I\'m doing at the time. I\'m not a pro, but some of my pictures could be used as such, that I have gotten from this camera. It\'s light weight and has the settings that are needed to accomplish what ever you are wanting to do.---As for the other - it will take time to get use to and I will conquer that as I go along. Then, I\'ll be a happy biker and photgrapher again!!
- I bought this camera to replace my Coolpix L4 which was not too good at low light photos. The S630 is just the opposite. In addition to all the cool features (scene modes, sports continuous, huge zoom, etc), it works great in low light. I took it on vacation and after some 600 shots I used the flash about 10 times. Took great photos from landscapes (the landscape and panorama assist scene modes are nice), night skylines and city streets, to pictures inside a cave (this was tricky, but doable especially with the d-lighting and quick retouch options in playback). The negative reviews talk about noise or blurry photos. Not my camera. For its relative small sensor size I\'d understand some noise, but my photos were almost entirely noise free. If you leave every setting in auto, yes it will be tough to get a good shot in low light or full zoom because this camera simply doesn\'t know what to do half the time. Once you get familiar with the settings (which are quick and simple to change) there\'s no scene this camera can\'t capture.
