'Nikon's D-Lighting system can be used to create a copy of a picture with enhanced brightness and contrast, typically when a photo is shot with backlight or insufficient flash lighting.'
'I wasn't terribly impressed with the face detection feature on the Coolpix S10, and it's no better here.'
'In addition, each of these buttons support other functions: The four directional buttons also when the camera is set to specific scene modes.'
'I found focus was often problematic in dim, low contrast conditions.'
'we found the Delete button a little difficult to reach'
'I wasn't terribly impressed with Nikon's version of face detection -- at best I got it to recognize one face in the photo I've been using as a test lately.'
'unique twist lens design'
'a point and shoot digital camera without any really tricky features to confuse you.'
'Your choices are pretty typical -- Portrait, Sports, Night Portrait, Landscape, Panorama Assist, Night Landscape, Beach/Snow, Sunset, Dusk/Dawn, Fireworks, Backlight, Close Up, Museum, and Copy.'
'Shot-to-shot speeds were average, with a delay of a little over
two seconds before you can take another picture.'
'a few features (the headline change being the introduction of optical image stabilization)'
'the Coolpix P4 and P3, a similarly specified version with WiFi capability, boast Nikon's excellent Vibration Reduction (Nikon-speak for image stabilisation), as well as a long list of other desirable features'
'The other controls are a little awkward'
'good ergonomic design'
'the on/off button is very tiny, so make sure you don't trim your nails too closely.'
'The increased zoom may be the reason for the camera's bulky design, but with vendors finding ways to cram more powerful lenses into smaller bodies, we don't really think it is justified in this case.'
'Nikon's innovative D-Lighting function compensates for exposure problems by adding light and detail to dark areas of shots'
'A trigger to the left initiates the self-timer menu; hitting up cycles the various flash options; down activates the macro menu'
'in case you are holding the Nikon S3 for the first time, the design really shows its beauty.'
'In the Coolpix S3, Nikon offers a subcompact design with great looks, a generous 6 megapixel imager, a 3X optical zoom lens, a large 2.5 inch LCD screen, and a feature set designed to make it easy to use'
'The camera also preserves the original image so you aren't stuck with the altered result if you don't like it'
'6 megapixel Coolpix S4'
'The twopart design still takes a little getting used to, at least until you realise that holding the screen steady and moving the lens assembly gives the most workable configuration.'
