Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
This is a great camera, all my pictures comes out incredibly. The setup of the camera is much easier to use than I had expected. I don't really like to use touch screen electronics because I hate fingerprints, but it is easy to clean. I love this camera, it also looks really nice and all my friends love it too.

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
This is the best camera I've ever had, it small, lite, takes great pictures and has some pretty cool features like writing your own comments on the picture, frames, etc. The picture quality is excellent and the one thing I love the most is the battery life which is outstanding!
Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
This product is great! I had to give it a 4/5 stars because it does have a shorter battery life; however, when you are dealing with a touch screen that is brightly lit up the entire time you are using it I think it is to be expected. It is a really great camera, easy to use, and fun. Sometimes the pictures are a little blurry, so I wouldn't recomend it as anything more than a point and shoot camera but I'm in love with it!!!

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
I use the camera everytime that I go out, with friends or family. It is light weight and convenient to carry due to its size. At this time, there isn't anything that I am not satisfied with.

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
I had 3 canons in the past and should of stuck with them. The camera is large and size and has a lot of "fluff" for nothing. the battery would die without warning, the screen had terrible resolution, the touch screen was beyond getting used to, and my camera would freeze and i would have to shut it off. The self timer has to be re-adjusted after every shot. I liek all the features, but when it came down to them i would never use them. also, the black and white and sepia features can only be seen in black and white after the picture is taken in color.
i exchanged it for the cannon elph, upgraded one from the one i broke and it has made me take a deep breath. more useful features and way easier to use and although the lcd is smaller, it at least, has a good resolution.

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
My 14 year old daughter wanted this camera for the "editing" features. I prefer Canon, but it was what she wanted. Took pictures of the same scene with my 6 MP Canon and this 10 MP Nikon. My prints were clear, while the Nikon's were much less sharp, almost cloudy.

I love this camera. It works really well and i would recomend it to anyone.

Comments about Nikon Nikon Coolpix S60 Digital Camera (Arctic White):
This camera rocks! It sure beats the clunky old Olympia 2 megapixel camera I had!! It is so much fun to take pictures and add captions or put little digital stamps all over it. The picture quality is great and the anti vibration feature works well. Love it!
