Nikon S3600 review

 

The Nikon COOLPIX S3600 is a point-and-shoot compact with an 8x optical zoom and 20.1 Megapixel CCD sensor. Released in February 2014 it supersedes the COOLPIX S3500 extending the earlier model's 7x zoom to 8x with a 35mm equivalent range of 25-200mm....

8x stabilised optical zoom ; Compact, stylish design ; Good range of effects filters ; In-camera battery charging

Lacklustre image quality ; Poor quality 720p MJPEG HD video ; Video digital zoom can't be turned off ; No Wifi

Nikon Coolpix S3600 review

 

Nikon updates its big-selling entry-level Coolpix 'Style' offering

Reasonable image quality in good light ; Reliable autofocussing ; Creative effects ; Vibration Reduction

Slow image processing ; Basic LCD screen ; Underwhelming dynamic range ; ISO3200 shots only captured at 4MP

If you're looking for a small, stylish and simple snapper and aren't too demanding when it comes to low light image quality or continuous shooting speed, the S3600 deserves to be on your shortlist.
