Nikon Coolpix S80 review

 

Is beauty more than skin deep with the Nikon Coolpix S80?

Stylish design ; Large OLED touchscreen ; Image quality at high ISOs

Touchscreen could be more sensitive to inputs ; Slight colour fringing in some situations

'S' means Style in the Nikon Coolpix range, and following on from the S70, the new Coolpix S80 brings improved features to the mid-range compact camera market with updated styling.

Image quality, styling, ease of use, high resolution screen, HD movies

Stereo microphones pick up mechanical - and handling - noise, all encompassing touchscreen control, no dedicated “play” button, screen prone to marking, slide away cover can collect dirt and scratches the finish
