I recently sold my Nikon Coolpix 8700, and was looking for a new camera that gave me picture quality equal to or better, and was a much smaller camera. I like taking pictures, but I’m not a photo guy. I basically want to aim, press the button and let the magic happen. Taking a chance I decided to try this camera, and I wasn’t disappointed. It’s got a lot of options to go beyond just auto mode if I want to dive into that. My main thing was the picture quality though and the quality of photos is excellent. My wife has a Canon A700 that takes decent pictures so we did a comparison just using the auto settings. A picture of our dog in the house with all the lights off in one room, a picture with one light on, and a picture with all the lights on. I figure if the low light pictures are good, then I’ll be pretty happy with the daytime pictures. While both cameras did a good job, our preference was the Nikon’s photos. The colors were closer to what we expected they should look like, and to our eyes appeared more natural. There wasn’t any noticeable noise in the photos, and the quality is very, very good. The size of the camera is great. Shorter than my Blackjack cell phone, and about 2. 5 times as thick. Definitely a camera that I could carry in the pocket of my jeans, or a jacket and not feel weighed down.

I purchased this camera in five months ago. The picture quality is very good but it started developing problems after 3 months. It will not retain the time and date. It started to freeze up nd could only be turned off or on by removing batteries. I sent it for repair at Nikon authorized center and was quickly told that this defect is not covered under warranty and will cost $99. 00 to repair. I strongly advise against the purchase of this series since I spoke to many coolpix owners and found out they have problems as well.

Got this camera for a month, did a wedding and a few travels with it, overall among the best sub-compacts but not perfect. Good points: - Manual mode: surprisingly useable, I usually leave it on this mode, click the side of the thumbwheel to switch from ISO to shutter to aperture, turn the wheel to set each in turn, a little exposure scale shows up to guide selection. Easy to select ISO up to 12800 (hardly useable, very grainy, 3200 is practical maximum). - High ISO: 3200 fairly smooth, 800 to 1600 very decent, I ended up not using flash for any of the wedding (inside) pictures. Bad: - Night flash mode good but not tyro-friendly, lent to a friend for pictures and most of them turned out blurry, she did not have a steady hand. Regular flash rather ugly, not what I’m used to with Nikon - Pictures show perfect on the camera screen but a bit dark on my computer monitor; not sure which is “wrong”, or whether there is some automatic D-Lighting during playback, anyway annoying. Overall good camera, would buy it again, but need to dig into it a bit, the pictures on my computer did not turn out as good as I expected based on what I saw on screen.

Absolutely Unreliable
My sister and I bought two Nikon Coolpix S710 cameras and they were both a great disappointment. My camera’s lens broke before I even started using it.

Great camera and lots of features
What a great camera.
I’ve had it two days and I am amazed at all of the features packed into it. First of all, it is small.

Buying this was a big mistake
At first I was happy with this camera. Until it broke. It just wouldn’t turn on. I took it back to the store, and they gave me a new one.

great camera, poor service
I have had this camera for approx. 4 months. I am so happy with it in every way but one. After about a month, the camera read “lens error” and would freeze open.
