Disappointed

I bought this to replace/upgrade a 4 year old coolpix 4800. Read mostly good reviews on this and ignored the ones that said not good in low light/grainy. My old coolpix is better. the only thing about this camera that is better than the old one is the zoom and the size. Keep looking and pass on this... read full review »

Love it!

This camera does so much more than you think it will. Read the instruction book and get into the menu and mode functions. The Smile feature is awesome - it almost can't take a bad picture. And the panorama assist feature is cool. The tiny size makes it perfect for carrying anywhere, and the view screen can be seen even in bright sunlight. Anyway, play with it - it takes great pictures and I couldn't be happier.

I was going to write a review but the last review said it all for me also. I copied below. I had an old, old digital camera that used AA batteries that ran out in 2-3 hours, no features, the zoom photos were horrible, etc. This camera is like a light-year leap for me. I just love it. The rechargealbe battery stays for days for me and to recharge is a snap. I find it very easy to use and the instruction booklet very easy to follow, I am so glad I bought it.

Great Camera

This small camera does everything I want it to do. The 10 megapixel produces great photos and the 5x zoom is wonderful. It is so easy to use with the face detection and smile mode. I would recommend this for the ease and the price.

EXPECT MORE FROM NIKON

I bought this camera on nov 1 and took it back almost immediately to try another camera because the photo was grainy. I had both camera' for a month and I expect more from a Nikon.. the photos were poor and I tried on several different settings. I took night pictures and the high iso made everytrhing blurry and the only good photos were if you were outside during the day and were 10 feet or less from anything. Not worth the money you spend on it .

It's up to u...

I recently perchased the Coolpix s550 not more then 2 weeks ago and already I'm receiving an error message about the lense or shutter not closing properly. It wouldn't close. This has happened twice now, but it seems to be working fine. All I have to say is that I spent good money on it and if it does it again (while I'm with in my return time limit) I am going to take it back and exchange it for another. But I do have to say that I have already taken some really amazing pix. :-)

broke too soon

Purchased the camera and only had it a couple of weeks. Took it on vacation and the third day of vacation, I had a lens error message and the lens would not open. Had to return the camera. Overall, I liked the camera. Not quite as usual friendly as all the Sonys I hae owned.
