 Great transaction, happy buyer October 17, 2008
The camera I ordered arrived on time in the condition promised. Thanks for the great job. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

I paid too much for this product. I wanted a Camera that was lightweight with good zoom that I could pack hunting to take pictures of wildlife. It's a little heavier than I wanted, and the zoom is difficult. The LED does not work very well in any kind of light and it really needs a view port. I'm also unhappy with the delay between actually taking the picture and the picture frame. My wife doesn't even want it!
 Disappointed enough to try something else. May 22, 2008
Amazon's price is more than a hundred dollars higher than the typical price all over the web. What gives, Amazon?br /br /Best feature: the swivel. I would never buy a camera without that.br /br /Disappointments: br /br /Being a 30-year Nikon user, I had high expectations for this camera. But...br /br /First, there is no viewfinder, so that on a bright day it's often impossible to frame a shot because you can't see any image on the digital screen at all. This is a HUGE disadvantage for outdoor photos.br /br /Second, I don't pretend to be an expert on cameras, though I've used them on 6 continents. This camera, which I had for about a year, was often disappointing in terms of graininess and colors. I was predisposed to like it (love Nikon), but it just kept not living up to expectations. I don't expect a zoomed picture to be perfect, but it always seemed that no matter how high I set the quality, results typically required way too much fixing in Photoshop. Very time consuming. br /br /Too often a batch of shots leaned heavily to one main color or another. For example, I shot a "roll" on a boat cruise (lots of water reflection) and ALL the photos, boat deck, other ships on the water, even the cityscape, were almost entirely cyan. Desaturate the cyan, and you had a darn near black white photo. Someone said I might have had it set for indoor. Doubt it, but in absolute fairness can't stake my life on it. I do know it was on Automatic. br /br /Before this camera, I used an early digital Nikon, a dinosaur by today's standards. But it's only problem was speed. And it was twice as big. Otherwise, it took far better pictures than this one, with much less fiddling around to adjust color and quality after the fact.br /br /Third: There were some things I thought were problems but I haven't used other digital cameras enough to compare. When the camera was set to shoot repeatedly while the shutter was pressed, only about one in ten shots in that mode wasn't blurry, making this feature of limited benefit. That seems odd, given the stabilization feature. Others have already mentioned spots in the pictures. The lens may look clean, and you may wipe it clean, but you'll sometimes get spots on the pictures in their darker areas--more Photoshop time. br /br /Fourth, I realize one cannot drop cameras on sidewalks with impunity... But it was a short fall, from the pocket of the coat I carried at my side. (I once dropped my iPhone from 4 times that distance, leaving a dent in the case, with no harm to the innards.) This relatively minor jarring caused the camera to present an error message when turned on, and it will cost more than $200 to repair it--nearly the cost of the camera (elsewhere on the internet). Given my disappointments over this camera, I will not okay the repair, but purchase a different brand instead... one with a viewfinder, a swivel, and hopefully better photo results.
better than i expected May 17, 2008
excelent zoom, excelent quality, compact for the zoom size. great handling, easy to use. beautiful. the rotating body makes it easy to take pictures of yourself or in awesome angles. pre-programmed modes work really fine and allow you to do well in basically all situations. some manual controls make it fun to operate. some difficulties to focus when in macro mode but you learn how to do it. it misses control of apperture.
This camera is amazing! April 22, 2008
I bought this camera last year to replace my old, Coolpix 880(I think) that cost twice as much when I got it and took excellent pictures. I didn't think it could be beat, but the Coolpix S10 did it!br /br /As always, the lens is distortion free and the photos are clear with great color, but this camera takes zoom to the limits in this price and megapixel range. I can zoom in on the ducklings in the pond across the street and, with the Vibration Reduction feature, get a perfectly clear photo that looks like a close up on my computer screen.br /br /Last month I was at Salisbury Cathedral in the UK and photographed the Christ medallion at the peak of the West(?) facade. When I put it on my travel Web site, it looked as if I had stood within four feet of it. It just blows my mind!br /br /I recommend this great camera to anyone. It's not mini to carry in a pocket, but the swivel lens makes it easy to take photos high, low or backwards. You can even take movies with sound!br /br /Only two negative criticisms: There is no viewfinder and so it's difficult to see your subject in bright sunlight and the lens cap is pretty chintzy, but costs $8.50 plus shipping to replace. Other than that, if you want a terrific camera in the $250 price range, this is the one for you.
