Nikon Coolpix S6400 Review

 

The Nikon Coolpix S6400 is a stylish, slim digital compact camera featuring a 16 megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor, 12x optical zoom with a wide-angle 25mm view, Full HD video, 3 inch LCD touch-screen and Quick Effects mode for speedy selection of...

Using the Nikon Coolpix S6400, it's plainly obvious that it's a very capable little camera. It seems to be fast at most things such as starting up from cold and it has a good focusing system on it. The lens seems to be good quality due to the lack of...

Nikon Coolpix S6400 Review

 

The Nikon Coolpix S6400 is the smaller variant of the much publicized S6500, it offers a somewhat different set of features when compared to the older brother. It has a 16 megapixel BSI sensor, a touchscreen and a lens that goes from 25mm to 300mm...

Compact, Sharp images, Negligible purple fringing, Touchscreen is great

Barely average video performance, Protrusion around the lens mount increases thickness, Average battery life

Nikon Coolpix S6400 review

 

Stylish touchscreen compact packs in features

Easy touchscreen ; Range of filters ; Fast ; High image quality

Poor battery ; Some menu systems too convoluted

On paper, the Nikon Coolpix S6400 would appear to have just about everything you want from a digital compact camera of its class. With a 12x optical zoom, 3-inch 460,000-dot touchscreen, 16 megapixel backlit CMOS sensor, Full HD video recording, a host...

Nikon Coolpix S6400

 

Decent photo quality ; Curvy body is different

On-screen buttons disappear after six seconds ; Default settings annoy ; Too many quirks

The Nikon Coolpix S6400's curvy body is one of its few distinctions. It does a decent job of taking photos, but its interface and other quirks don't make it a particularly endearing camera to have and to hold.

Nikon adds Wi-Fi to Coolpix S6400, calls it S6500

 

Nikon concentrates on its Nikon 1 system at CES 2013, keeping its point-and-shoot announcements to just one 12x zoom Coolpix.

Impressive camera in theory but will not charge.

Chose this camera for Christmas because of its impressive specification, handy pocket size and its choice of cool colours. Unfortunately it refused to charge up. Despite following all suggestions from Nikon support (who were very helpful) and the...

Nikon Coolpix S6400

 

compact, easy and quick to use for quick snaps. single button video mode operation good zoom range touch screen menus

auto focus use taking some getting used to - too many options? Had a few fuzzy pics as found it hard to get camera to focus on desired point of main interest - I'm getting there with practice
