Review on Nikon COOLPIX S6500 Wi-Fi Digital Camera with 12x Zoom in Red by Abbie Garcia

Happy with a Nikon refurbished purchase. The refurbished S6500 that I received is cosmetically close to perfect. The plastic casing under the Coolpix's "C" has a very small dent on the front and clear color in the top left corner (when viewed from the front) but no red color underneath, making it almost impossible to see. There was still a feature sticker on the front of the camera which I removed (I hate stickers). The camera was fully inspected with a 10x magnifying glass, no dirt, dust etc was found in the crevices. None of the knobs showed signs of wear. The screen is free of scratches and dead pixels. The camera lens was clean and free of scratches. Latest firmware version 01.10. After the physical examination, I took several photos and videos. Two camera review websites suggested lowering the exposure compensation by two clicks (-0.7) and setting the color options to Vivid, so I made those two changes. Photos uploaded to a desktop PC with two Asus 27 inch monitors to compare photos with other photos I took with Nikon CoolPix P100. The S6500 takes very good photos compared to its more advanced sister camera. And all the symptoms of cheap point-and-shoot weren't there. But I tested the camera's features to make sure everything was working properly, such as white balance, autofocus, fixed and continuous focus video, etc. All features worked as they should. is a camera that launched in 2013 as a top-of-the-line point-and-shoot model (then sold on Revain for $299) and is now available in 2018 for just $80, and has been refurbished by Nikon itself. Available for $80, the new model features a NIKKOR lens with 12x optical zoom, 1080p HD video recording, and a 16-megapixel backlit CMOS sensor (most are CMOS, but due to the high Doesn't cost the improved backlit version). like many other functions. This camera is a bargain and the two tiny blemishes are a small price to pay, especially considering the camera works 100% as it should. Typically, refurbished products are tested more thoroughly than new ones. So refurb is actually a very good deal. Thoroughly tested, firmware updated, 90 day warranty. I say buy one while you can.

Took this camera on a recent trip around Hong Kong. The camera fits in the front pocket of my jeans with no problem. He went everywhere with me, filming events and taking photos. Since I turned off the features mentioned above, the camera could also work with fast movements, e.g. B. following a trolleybus, take pictures very quickly. The color is deep and well saturated, but not overdone. 1080P video is crisp and looks amazing on a 48" HDMI TV, even up close. An amazing lens combined with a huge light chip puts all other cameras in this class to shame. 16mm film on 35mm film, this camera really is a step up. The focus-on-zoom worked great outside of capturing a distant subject. The closer you get to the subject, the worse the autofocus works. Probably because he's trying to focus on many objects at once. Changing the focus setting to center greatly improved the "hunting" focus effort. With center focus (focuses on the crosshairs in the center of the screen), the autofocus is a gem. Overall, this REVISED camera worked just like a new camera. With amazing savings. And cameras in this refurbished price range cannot match the quality available here. No, buy this refurbished one while you can, as an all-in-one backup in your back pocket, with a clear high-zoom camera. That? Get one now before they disappear! To allow the camera to take pictures in rapid succession, turn off image preview and set the autofocus to the center. Lower the screen brightness completely to save battery life.
