*Recording stops automatically after 29 minutes. This figure is based on in-house testing standards and stated for recording at 25°C with a fully charged EN-EL12 battery. Actual results may vary greatly depending on factors that include differences in ambient temperature, and the amount of zoom and autofocus operations used.
Four advanced image stabilization features ensure sharper results
Compensating for the effects of camera shake to realize sharper results and contribute to a more reassuring shooting experience, lens shift VR stabilization frees you to enjoy capturing special moments without worrying about slight hand movements. High ISO 1600 capability at any image size up to its maximum of 4320 x 3240 pixels allows faster shutter speeds when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects. Motion Detection automatically controls shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for subject movement as well as camera shake. Advanced flash control enables natural and beautiful flash photos even when subjects are backlit or when shooting telephoto by enhancing ISO sensitivity, rather than opting for slower shutter speeds. With advanced flash control, users can shoot with more flexibility in the night and when subjects are far away.
2.7-in., 230k-dot TFT LCD featuring Nikons Clear Color Display
The high quality 2.7-in. Clear Color Display for the COOLPIX S6000 features an ultra wide-viewing angle, anti-reflection coating, and screen brightness adjustment. The monitors structure greatly reduces reflection and improves visibility outdoors for a more vivid, clearer image preview and playback.
Nikons Smart Portrait System with Skin Softening
As part of Nikon's Smart Portrait System, a series of advanced functions help produce consistently great portraits. The Skin Softening function ensures smooth skin tone on the face of subjects by leveraging built-in face-detection technology. Automatically detecting as many as 12 faces in the shot, Face-priority AF helps produce satisfying portraits by adjusting focus and exposure. Smile Timer helps to faithfully record precious moments by automatically releasing the shutter when the subject smiles. Blink Warning alerts the photographer when it suspects that a subject has blinked, while the Blink Proof function shoots five sequential frames, then saves the one in which the subject's eyes are wide open. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix Red-Eye Fix automatically corrects perceived red-eye effect before saving the image to memory.
Subject Tracking
Subject tracking automatically detects a human face and then continues to track and focus on that subject. Particularly useful when capturing children as they move naturally, Subject Tracking even functions if the subject moves out of the frame and returns within three seconds

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S6000 Digital Camera (Champagne Silver):
After many years of using a Canon, I decided to ask for a Nikon for Christmas, and I have not been disappointed! The ease, speed, and clarity of the pictures make this a number 1 in my book.
Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S6000 Digital Camera (Champagne Silver):
This was a Christmas gift and so far, I love it!! I own a Nikon D40X purchased from Ritz approximately 3 years ago, some of the best money ever spent. The only negative is that it's large and I can't always carry it with me. Therefore, my husband purchased the Coolpix so that I would have a camera that could easily be taken anywhere and still take GREAT shots. This Coolpix is incredibly easy to use and the pictures have been such great quality.
