A very good point and shoot

byekmann503 Jan 4, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros good picture quality, easy to use, several pre-adjusted scene modes, small size.
Cons Limited options to manually tune exposure, small buttons for big fingers.
Recommended it? Yes

We bought a Nikon S3 in May 2006 with a 512 Mb Ultra II SanDisk SD card installed. In the past we've had Olympus 4MP and Casio 5MP Exilim digital point and shoots.

My wife and I used the S3 quite a bit over the past 6 months (taking pictures of our kids, neighbors, family, etc). Our... Read full review »

Most likely to get the good shot

Pros Highly portable, good quality, takes good photos, has interesting and effective advanced...
Cons None. It is about as good as it can be for its size category.
Recommended it? Yes

This review will cover what the typical consumer will need to know about the Nikon S3. Lists of features and statistics are available on technical testing sites.

The S3 is a very small camera, much smaller in your hand than it appears on paper. My initial impression was that it was too... Read full review »

8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Large screen, docking station, scroll wheel, flush zoom lens.
Cons Menus are a little daunting until you get familiar with them, then they're pretty...
Recommended it? Yes

The phone is sleek, easy to use, has a large screen, and comes with a docking station for easy charging and image transfer. The scroll wheel makes it easier to scroll through your photos than a typical push-button design. The zoom lens doesn't protrude out from the body of the camera, so you don't... Read full review »

bad camera , White Spots Blobs & Circles Ruin 75% of Photos

bysudhirlath Apr 2, 2007
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros features like large LCD, WiFi & good looks
Cons White Spots Blobs & Circles Ruin 75% of Photos
Recommended it? No

75% of images taken by this camera are ruined by white blobs, white halos, white circles, white comets, or other white artifacts that cover portions of the image. They show up randomly, with little rhyme or reason. Appears to be some sort of camera design flaw that allows flash light to bounce... Read full review »
