Small camera with BIG zoom!

bywren207 Mar 14, 2006
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great pictures with lots of zoom in a little camera!
Cons Video is jumpy, but much better than most digital cameras
Recommended it? Yes

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! The Nikon name, the ease of use, small... Read full review »

Pros Easy to use.  Looks classy.  Looks like a much more expensive camera.<br>Love the...
Cons Slow shutter speed.  Don't use it on moving subjects.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought the camera because I'm an artist and I use the camera to photograph scenes, people, still life, pets.  Just about anything.  I have about a thousand photos in my reference file and they are all good enough for an artist to work from.

It took the clearest pictures I have ever had. ... Read full review »

poor reliability

Pros Good Zoom. Large Viewfinder.
Cons No optical view finder. Poor video capture. Poor reliability
Recommended it? No

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 good pictures, but the video was horrible,... Read full review »

Image sensor breaks repeatedly!!

byccarmody Apr 4, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros AA Battery, big zoom.
Cons Blurry close ups even on tripod. Unreliable.
Recommended it? No

This camera has some nice features. That's why I bought it. But it creates too many blurry images close up and, more importantly, my image sensor ahas broke down twice in the past two months. I sent it in for a factory repair under warranty and the sent it back after 6 weeks. The same thing... Read full review »

Pros A great lens with good build quality
Cons lack of a view finder and a more secure camera strap
Recommended it? Yes

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 joy stick takes a little practice. I did find that... Read full 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 cameras carried by other people in the group... Read full 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 been dropped many times! I have had my for almost... Read full review »

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.
Recommended it? Yes

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 and hopefully I'll get it back in about a...

Pros Attractive design, well-built Swivel lens design ,10 x zoom
Cons Shutter lag is quite long at maximum telephoto

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, a lot of freedom and what's more important, more... Read full review »
