Overall good camera

I've only recently been able to use this camera for friends wedding photos and landscape photos. The shots came out pretty well, but I was most impressed with the 1080p video this camera captures. Wow! On the minor point, I noticed that the images from this camera were a bit soft and had some grain, even when the lighting was more than adequate for the photo (strong sunlight). I was able to take about 300 photos without charging the battery, including some long-term video mode operations…

Waste of money

Beware of this Nikon Coolpix S9100 camera. I bought it 7 months ago and most of the time it was broken (unusable). He freezes. no answer at all. I paid to send it back to Nikon for evaluation; They then told me that I would have to pay $87 for out-of-warranty repairs. Total shipping and repair: $127 for a $200 camera. Then less than 1.5 months since the same problem. I called and another service rep assured me repairs would be made free of charge and a shipping label would be sent "before the…

Worked great for about 45 days

Bought this camera before going to Alaska as an upgrade from a previous Coolpix that still works and we are happy with it. We wanted this camera for the extra zoom, quality and extra features. The photos of Alaska turned out great! The 180 degree panorama function is easy to use and the photos turn out amazing! The 360 function never worked, even used on a tripod with no success. Here's the kicker. After returning home from a trip, I snapped a few random pictures and then embarked on another…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Best compact digital camera of the year?

I've been using Canon for over 30 years now but after years of online and hands on demo reviews of an intermediate digital camera for my Rebel DSLR I've decided to stick with the Nikon Coolpix S9100 over 2 comparables Canon, Panasonic Lumix and Sony models. The features that influenced my decision were the powerful optical zoom, the ability to take pictures while recording video, the ability to use the wide-angle and telephoto features while recording video, and a decent delay between shots and

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Useless features

Returned - defective - Nikon's quality control is out of control.

This camera has excellent performance and takes excellent photos in daylight and very good photos in low light. The panorama function works great. However, there are two issues with this unit that made me return it. For some reason, Revain didn't offer an exchange (out of stock?). Shortcomings: 1. There is a small bubble near the center of each photo at each zoom range. Cleaning the lens didn't help, so it could be a defect in the lens glass or the sensor itself.2. Auto focus is very poor in…

  • sparkles
