Nikon Coolpix S60

 

The touch-screen Nikon Coolpix S60 is certainly sexy, but its images are underwhelming at best.

Sleek and good-looking. Big, responsive touch screen. Simple touch gestures make photo playback a snap.

No hardware zoom control; zooming in and out with the touch screen can be very difficult. Captures fewer resolution lines than competitors. HDMI-out, but no HD video recording. Flash shots are underexposed. Poor battery life.

Pocket Digicam Looks Good, But It's Too Touchy

 

Nikon's pocket shooter has an iPhone-like touchscreen, but as a camera, it falls a bit short.

Nikon Coolpix S60 review: Nikon Coolpix S60

 

Nikon Coolpix S60

Optical image stabilization; 3.5-inch touch-screen LCD; pretty; fun features.

Comparatively slow interface; relatively slow for its class; soft images; all but the power and shutter are touch-screen controlled.

Fun features and chic styling make the Nikon Coolpix S60 a tasty choice for casual point-and-shoot use. However, if you need speed or snapshot perfection, this isn't your camera.

Nikon Coolpix S60 Review

 

The Nikon Coolpix S60 is a 10 megapixel compact digital camera featuring Nikon's distinctive “wave-surface” design and a massive 3.5 inch wide-screen LCD monitor with touch-panel control. The S60 only has two external buttons - On/Off and Shutter...

Nikon have certainly succeeded in making the Nikon Coolpix S60 stand out from the point-and-shoot digicam crowd, with a distinctive look and feel that extends to its almost completely touchscreen operation. Ultimately, though, this is also the most...

Elegant 10 megapixel Coolpix with 3.5-inch touch screen and internal 5X zoom

 

The Coolpix S60 is an elegant, small and handy camera with a fully internal 5X optical zoom and a unique touchscreen interface that replaces almost all hardware controls. The camera is small enough to fit anywhere, yet has a very large and sharp...

Terrific hi-res 3.5 inch touch screen, Internal 5X optical zoom, Elegant metallic design, Optical lens-shift image stabilization, Face recognition mode with smile and blink detection, Voice recording, Full speed VGA movies with sound

No optical zoom during movies, Touch screen has learning curve, Costly

Nikon Coolpix S60

 

This ultra-compact packs a somewhat wide 5X optical zoom lens and a 3.5" LCD in a 1" thick body, along with a 10 megapixels sensor and vibration reduction. A touch screen interface replaces most controls resulting in a frustratingly slow interface for...

Good automatic white-balance performance, Natural image colors, Good overall exposure based on focus-point, Short shutter-lag, Quick zoom, playback and power-off times, Excellent LCD visibility when not smudged, Good build quality

Below average image stabilization, Noise at all ISO settings, Strong softness at ISO 400 and 800, Useless ISO 1600 and up, High optical distortion at both ends of zoom, Terribly inneficient and unresponsive interface, Dificult to hold securely

As an ultra-compact digital camera, the Nikon Coolpix S60 lives in the category with the most models. Luckily, this model does several things to distinguish itself. To start, its 3.5" LCD is the largest which can fit in an ultra-compact. Add a...
