Nikon Coolpix S570 user reviews (Black)

Pros Lightweight, portable, readily activated, useable under all weather conditions. This camera has served me well in macro applications, a feature that is often overlooked in reviews.

Cons Switching modes can be awkward at best (photo to video, mainly) unlike other cameras such as the Samsung L-200.

Summary If I had to buy this camera all over again, I would do so without a scrap of hesitation. My condolences to those who have had trouble with their particular purchases.

Pros This camera worked for a week when suddenly the lens stopped adjusting properly. The focus on this camera was slow and pics would be blurry. However, after two weeks the lens began to not REALLY act erratic. It would not retract or extend/open properly. F

Cons It's small and light weight. Plus, there are variety of colors to choose from.

Summary In brief, this camera is garbage and I would not buy it again.

Pros Compact, good battery life, solid construction

Cons No HD recording, slow picture to picture time

Summary It's a good camera, but the slow save time from picture to picture can be very annoying, especially if you're trying to capture something quick. It wouldn't be that bad of a camera if it could save pictures faster.

Pros It is a small lightweight camera for relatively low price.

Cons The focus mechanism is extremely slow. Even the slightest movement by the subject, the photographer, or something in the background seems to result in a blurry picture. Low light photos are particularly blurry.

Summary My experience matches that of the other reviewers: the focus mechanism on this camera is substandard and does not deliver clear photos. I will not buy another Nikon.
