Reviews of the Nikon Coolpix S10

    CNET Review

    October 18, 2006

    The Good: Solid, fast 10X optical zoom lens; flexible, swivel-body design; sensor-shift image stabilization.

    The Bad: No manual exposure controls; no flash compensation; noisy images at ISO 400 and above.

    The Bottom Line: Nikon's S10 has some decent features, including a really nice lens, but it doesn't live up to its potential and can't compete with similarly priced superzooms.

    Review Summary: Here is another compact ultra-zoom designed to appeal consumers by packing a 10X stabilized optical zoom lens into a compact body. While the Nikon Coolpix S10 manages to do so, it does it with very poor ergonomics which make using it rather frustrating.

    Review Summary: Don't be lured by over ambitious 10-meg compacts. The S10 proves that a six-megger with a quality lens still wins out.
