Nikon COOLPIX S6100 16 MP Digital Camera with 7x NIKKOR Wide-Angle Optical Zoom Lens and 3-Inch Touch-Panel LCD (Red)

I love it and nice camera..

This is a great little camera with alot of fun features. I had a hard time deciding between the s8100 and the s6100 because the s8100 takes faster pictures, 1080 video, a better sensor, and bigger zoom.The features listed below are the reasons I chose the s6100.Touch screen--can use your finger but it can be a little tricky to move it just right. It does come with a stylus that allows you to move through the screens quickly. Makes it very easy to get through the menus. The menu on the left has the options for flash, self-timer, macro, and exposure compensation. The menu on the bottom has the options for touch shutter, image mode, movie options, and settings. The battery levels are always displayed in the left hand corner so there is no guessing how much battery is left. Above that the scene mode is displayed.Scene selection--There are 19 scenes to choose from plus the scene auto selector. When you push the scene button and all 20 options are listed there is a question mark box in the upper right hand corner that will explain the different modes to help you choose the right one.Filter Effects--It has the ability to draw or write on photos, add decorations, cross screen, fish eye, selective color, black and white, sepia. I have messed around with a few of these features, I will try to upload a few pictures. It also has glamour retouch and skin softening.Playback button--Has options to star a photo as favorite, delete, slide show, protect, print, draw, retouch, voice record, and settings.Charger--This camera can charge through your computer or it also has an adapter much like most cell phones now do so you can use the USB cord to charge using an outlet. There is a light on the back that flashes to let you know it is charging.The dedicated movie button makes it very simple to record videos. Unlike the 8100, you cannot take a photo while you are recording with the 6100.From the opinion of a hobby photographer, I think there are alot of features nicely packaged into this pocket-sized camera.

worked well. had a few dents but i didn’t mind it since they mentioned it in the description it was expected! Only thing is it did not come with its original box and the shipping did take a month

I love everything about this little camera. Its lightweight, easy to use, excellent battery life and the touch screen is nice. Oh, and the picture quality is fab!!I get that some people aren't use to the touch screen... And neither was I, so it took a few uses to really be able to quickly get through camera functions... But once you play with it, its good. I was always a cannon girl and loved my little cameras, but I really wanted something new. I was concerned because I love the photo quality of my cannons, but this camera takes an AWESOME photo!!! I have used it at a baseball game, a bachelorette party and a wedding in the last couple weeks... And the pictures are perfect. The video quality is awesome too! Just one thing on that... Keep recording even if your countdown restarts... It makes it one video when you upload it, but could be confusing if you don't figure it out quick.The on camera editing is cool, not really my thing... But its cute!

Our brother had this camera when he came for a visit. There were many things he liked about is so after looking at the other comparable cameras in this category we decided to buy it. It is smaller than our Panasonic bridge camera which makes it more convenient for much of our daily picture taking yet we will keep the Panasonic as there are many things it will do this one will not.Picture quality is pretty good from what I can tell. The photos inside without the flash were better than the ones using the flash in an office setting. I used it during our office party and it captured good photos even when people are moving. It will automatically focus in on faces and there has been no red eye challenges, etc. We have not used the movie mode yet so I canont say how the quality is for that.You cannot ask for a much easier setup and the menuing system is easy to follow. Use the stylus that comes with it, just hook it on the strap and it will be much easier than using your fingers. Overall it has nice settings and options. One real feature it is missing is the number of pictures left based on the card size. You can get estimates from the web yet I expected it to be on the camera like most of the others. It is a small thing yet the small things are important sometimes.Overall we will enjoy this camera for much of what we want to capture. It has a really solid feel compared to some of the others I have looked at. This is the first Nikon I have had and for the category I believe it was a good purchase at a good price. It was on sale and I added it to the cart and then went to view some other cameras just to make sure it was the one I wanted. While shopping the price dropped another $5 and that was a nice surprise.
