    The Good: Optical image stabilization; 3.5-inch touch-screen LCD; pretty; fun features.

    The Bad: Comparatively slow interface; relatively slow for its class; soft images; all but the power and shutter are touch-screen controlled.

    The Bottom Line: Fun features and chic styling make the Nikon Coolpix S60 a tasty choice for casual point-and-shoot use. However, if you need speed or snapshot perfection, this isn't your camera.
