Nikon Coolpix S610 Review

 

With Nikon still showing the S600 (a camera that reached market in March 2008) on their U.S. website, a quick look at the specs of it and the new Nikon Coolpix S610 leads to the conclusion that this model appears to be a refreshed-for-the-market S600...

Good image and color quality, Very good AF acquisition time

Disappointing shutter lag, No manual controls

Nikon Coolpix S610

 

The Nikon Coolpix S610 is a very small ultra-compact camera with a stabilized wide-angle lens, offering a 4X range from 28 to 112mm, in 35mm-equivalent terms. Up to relatively recently, there was very little competition in terms of wide-angle...

Wide-angle lens in a very small ultra-compact, FIne noise patter makes it usable up to ISO 800, Good image colors with correct white-balance, Good custom-white balance, Mostly good exposure, but occasional problems, Barely any distortion, Good focusing...

Noise visible at all ISO, muddy shadow details, Gradual increase in softness towards edges, Poor automatic and preset white-balance, Slow shot-to-shot speed but average lag, LCD blanks for 2s or more between shots, LCD is too yellow, Redeye problems

The Nikon S610 finds itself in the sea of high-resolution ultra-compacts with wide-angle lenses. At least 25 such cameras exist and, despite being slim and well-built, the S610 does not distinguish itself well. Not that it performs poorly, but one must...

Nikon CoolPix S610c

 

10-megapixel camera with built-in Wi-Fi.

Wireless connectivity, good colour balance, incredibly fast start-up time

High levels of chromatic aberration, high shutter lag and slow shot-to-shot time, slow wireless transfers

Nikon's CoolPix S610c is a solid compact camera with a few notable problems. It takes fairly good snaps and has wireless connectivity; however, uploading photos can be slow. The camera itself is incredibly slow at times, which makes for a frustrating...

Nikon CoolPix S610

 

Compact camera with 28mm wide-angle lens.

Good colour balance, wide-angle lens, 4x optical zoom with stabilisation, lightning quick start-up time

Extremely slow shot-to-shot time and shutter lag, chromatic aberration issues

Nikon's CoolPix S610 would have been quite an impressive unit if it wasn't for its extremely slow shutter speed and shot-to-shot lag. As it stands it still captures fairly good snaps and has some nifty features, but can be irritatingly slow at times.

Nikon Coolpix S610 digital camera

 

It's been but a few sparse months since the Coolpix S600 passed through the test bay doors but when it did, it was the top-most camera in the Nikon Style range of compacts. Enter stage left the latest range of Style cameras from Nikon, the S610 forming...

Build and styling, image quality, easy to use, screen size, Image Stabilisation

Starts quickly but otherwise not as fast as Nikon claim, no manual modes, slow AF, menu use

Overall then, the Coolpix S610 is a mixed bag, superb image quality and clever kit disguised by a deceptively simple design, but the whole in this case is not quite the sum of its parts.

Nikon Coolpix S610

 

The Nikon Coolpix S610 is a 10 megapixel digital camera with a wide angle, 4x optical zoom lens. In terms of size the Coolpix S610 is 22.5mm, so you should have little trouble fitting it into a pocket. David Tymon from Cameras.co.uk has reviewed.
