  - Horrendous picture quality... on par with old Nokia phoneThis camera is great looking and a good portable size - "cute" would be the word to describe it. But when you see the images from the camera, you will be appalled, especially given the price of the camera. I got mine nice and cheap, but looking at the prices at various stores (saw it for $200 in one) there is no way the price is justified. I compared the photos from my s220 with my Nokia 6500 Slide 3.3MP phone, and I kid you not, the quality of the photos is the same. I love Nikon SLR cameras (I have a d700), but they really need to improve the quality of their compacts. Until then, I am never buying a Nikon compact again. Rating:  - WHAT A GORGEOUS CAMERA & IT TAKES GORGEOUS PICTURES!I too was very hesitant on purchasing this camera because of all of the negative reviews. I just couldn't accept the fact that a company such as Nikon would sell "crap". I did a lot of research and read just about all of the reviews I could find and noticed that most of the reviews had two things in common. The pictures were "grainy and blurry". I took the advice of some of the reviewers and lowered the ISO settings to 80 before I used the camera. I am proud to say that I am exceedingly satisfied with my gorgeous Plum Nikon. People, instead of just opening the box and taking photos, please, please READ THE MANUAL. Rating: - Don't buy the Coolpix S220!I bought the S220 without doing first any research, because I trusted Nikon (have a great SLR and would not want anything else!) Nice camera good build quality: Nikon. But after taking the first pictures they looked bad an the LCD, so I figured that is just the screen resolution, and that the picture will be OK once downloaded on my PC - but it wasn't. More than half of the picuture taken can be tossed, no matter if inside, outside, close-up, far - the S220 just can't handle it (I have three other small digitals, Pentax, Olympus + Casio some 10 years old and all taking better pictures). I have played with the settings, pixels, etc. nothing improves the picture quality (blurry, heavy grain, not focused, dark or overexposed...) Will I buy a Nikon again - of course, but from now on I will first check the reviews and to some testing first. This camara is not worth even the newest discounted price of $100. Buy another type instead! Rating: - I love this camera!I LOVE THIS CAMERA!!!!!!!! I got this for my trip to Japan, and love it so much. The pictures are just beautiful- clear and focused with such vivid colors. It's durable, sleek, and takes great pictures. The quality is wonderful, and it's so easy to use. Anyone that gives it a low review is full of it. Come on, it's $100 for a camera that works wonderfully! If you want a camera that takes studio-grade photos, pay the price for one. But this little camera takes lovely pictures- I think it does the job very well. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this camera to anyone. I have no regrets in buying it- I love it! Rating:  - Set the ISO to 80, Works BetterThe out-of-box image quality is either blurry or grainy. I tried couple of things and went on-line for a solution. I got that setting the ISO level to 80 helps a lot. The pictures are coming fine when you set the ISO to 80. For this Press the Menu button when you are in picture shooting mode, navigate to the ISO sensitivity and set it to ISO 80. The video quality is excellent in this camera, almost like a camcorder video. |
