Nikon S4

Pros: Great pictures with lots of zoom in a little camera!

Cons: Video is jumpy, but much better than most digital cameras

The Bottom Line: Best for those who want quality (picture and camera), zoom capability, affordability, and ease of use.

Review: We shopped for a camera that would give us more than 4 mega pixels as well as the ability to zoom at least 10x. This is hard to find in most small cameras if you don't want to spend a fortune. The camera gave us more than we asked for and we love it! ...

Pros: A great lens with good build quality

Cons: lack of a view finder and a more secure camera strap

Review: The S4 is the third camera and best in this series that I have owned, none of which have disappointed me. I love the Nikon lenses, always sharp with vibrant colors. I have large hands and I find the controls convenient and easy to use although the ...

Pros: 6 megapixel with all the zoom you need. Excellent battery life and fast processing speeds.

Cons: the joystick is difficult to master

Review: I purchased this camera for use on a trip to the Far East. It excelled in a wide range of situations and I am very pleased. I took a wide variety of pictures - people, landscapes, macros, night shots, and action pictures. The camera out performed most ...

Pros: Takes great pictures. Takes great short videos.

Cons: I have found it hard to take pictures at gymnastic gyms.

Review: This is an awesome camera. I take hundreds of pictures each year mostly of kids, sports, and animals. It has a great zoom lens on it. Very easy to use - My three year has used it (too) many times. It is durable enough to be around kids... as it has ...

Pros: Attractive design, well-built Swivel lens design ,10 x zoom

Cons: Shutter lag is quite long at maximum telephoto

Review: The Nikon Coolpix S4 is a pleasant camera to work with. The swivel lens offers a lot of freedom for capturing images from almost any angle. A small compact design with 10x optical zoom and a high resolution of 6 Megapixel offer the user high quality, ...

Pros: Great zoom, excellent pictures, and easy handling. Swivel head is a big plus.

Cons: Zoom stabilization would be a big plus. Also, a more rugged lens cover.

Review: Bought the camera about two months ago and was entirely satisfied with it until the image sensor went out. Had to return it to a local camera store who charged me $28 to send it off to the service center in California. It's been gone about three weeks ...

Pros: A big 10x zoom and 2.5 inch LCD.

Cons: No Optical viewfinder and no included SD card.

The Bottom Line: The S4 has a lot to offer and at the same time it has its short comings!

Review: The Nikon Coolpix S4 is a pocket size digital camera that can easily fit in a shirt pocket or purse. It comes with a large 2.5 inch LCD screen, 6-megapixel effective CCD, a 10x zoom and more for under $400. It is only 1.4 inches thick, 4.4 inches wide ...

Pros: Swivel lense; 10x optical

Cons: Start up time; image quality; poor video quality; no video image stabilization

Review: We purchased the camera for our daughter’s wedding and the design of the camera was what probably sold us on it. The initial start up seemed long while the recycle time was better. This has been a point of contention for us with our previous digital ...

Pros: long distance

Cons: battery

Review: I bought this camera half a year ago. It has good looking. It can take clear pictures for which are very far away from me. However, the battery is not very good. ...

Pros: Good Zoom. Large Viewfinder.

Cons: No optical view finder. Poor video capture. Poor reliability

Review: This is the 3rd coolpix camera that I've owned. The 950 and 990 series still work, but the s4 died after only 14 months of use. The repair center quoted at least 100.00 to fix, so I'm going to take that 100.00 and put it down on a Canon. the s4 did take ...
