Nikon Coolpix S51c (Silver)

By (cnet.com)

Nice click wheel ; sleek, slim design ; supports wireless 802.11b/g photo e-mail via T-Mobile HotSpots and private access points ; optical image stabilization

The lack of a built-in browser prevents you from being able to access most free public Wi-Fi access points

This latest version of Nikon's Wi-Fi camera captures nice images and lets you e-mail them straight from the camera via T-Mobile or private access points, but since it lacks a browser you can't gain access to most free Wi-Fi access points.

Now, Nikon has made the Coolpix S51c, which is nearly identical to last...

Nikon Coolpix S51c (Silver)

By Philip Ryan (zdnet.com)

Why mess with a good thing? That seems to be Nikon's approach to its Wi-Fi-enabled ultracompact cameras. When they came out with the Coolpix S50c last year, I noticed that it was extremely similar to its predecessor, the S7c. Now, Nikon has made the ...

Review: Nikon Coolpix S51c compact digital camera

By Chris Coleman (infosyncworld.com)

Nikon connects its new S51c camera to the net with Wi-Fi capability, but are its photos worth uploading?

Wi-Fi connectivity, panorama-assist utility, external charger, film-grainy noise

Unwieldy ergonomics, Wi-Fi can be flaky over WEP and troublesome to setup for WPA/WPA-2, no editing software, average image-quality, terrible video-quality

The Nikon Coolpix S51c: Design - Good With its smooth and reflective surfaces...

"Nikon where's the Image QUALITY & BROWSER for WiFi?"

By McLieberman (cnet.com)

Very Disappointed when I received this camera... 

Big Screen, Light, & Compact

Lousy Image Quality and No Browser for WiFi HotSpots

"Small and light"

By qwerty_sella (cnet.com)

My 5MP 3 years old Sony camera with 1/1.8 CCD... 

No pros- average camera with large 3" Screen

1/2.5 image sensor - so you get large images (8MP), but no quality per square inch

DO NOT BUY

By N/A (newegg.com)

It looks good. It's light. It's got some cool features like the wifi and also when you look at the picture, it's got a cool little clicker

PLZ DO NOT BUY. I thought it was nice and a good deal, but it's not!! I drop my camera very frequently and this would not be good if you did so too. It's made out of some cheap plastic, nothing is metal on it and can break EASILY. I am returning it becaus...

Manufacturer's Description

Make camera shake a thing of the past. Incorporating highly effective optical VR image stabilization into its slim, compact dimensions, the COOLPIX S51c produces sharper, more satisfactory shots. What's more, high sensitivity up to ISO 1600 creates new opportunities to take sharper, more natural looking photos in lower lighting conditions. A huge, bright LCD monitor makes it a cinch to compose shots and play them back anywhere. Thanks to its wide 160-degree viewing angle, it's easy for...
