1 out of 5 stars Not worth the Nikon name   January 6, 2009
M. Turano (NJ)
I read these reviews too, thinking there was no possible way Nikon could produce what all these people were complaining about. Oof. Was I wrong! Don't even try taking indoor pictures without flash. They will come out looking like 90's era webcam pictures. I tried a few shots with a tripod and they came out half decent, so make sure you take one of those along with you. Not quality work from a company that knows better.

Camera is perfectly new and specifications are what was described by seller. Great shipping and got it by Christmas.


5 out of 5 stars Great camera for the price   January 3, 2009
Thomas E. Waters (Kansas City,MO)
This is the 5th Nikon camera that I own and the quality just gets better. My daughter is a professional photographer and we are using this as a backup at weddings and such. Great pictures and easy to use. Small size makes it easy to drop in pocket and is ready in an instant to use. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars Incredible little camera   January 3, 2009

This Nikon Coolpix S550 with 10 megapixels and 5x zoom is a leap forward for Nikon when comparing this to my prior (Coolpix) camera that had appx 5 megapixels and 2x zoom capability. This is MUCH faster than prior versions cutting delay to a fraction of my previous model. The view screen on the back is larger (2.5 inch LCD) and the images appear "crystal clear".

If you've owned a prior version of the Coolpix camera and you upgrade to this one, you'll have very little trouble figuring out how to use it. I didn't even need to read the instruction manual.

This camera is probably not the best one for people who do "serious" photography. It's perfect though, for me -- all I want to do is point and shoot with minimal delay between photos.

This version comes with a unique rechargeable battery that comes with its own charger. Battery life seems pretty long. I charged it once on 12/24/08, and it's now 1/3/09. I have yet to drain the battery.

I recommend buying a camera case for this camera, because it's very slim, and it would help to protect the display screen from scratches.

Mine was made in Indonesia.

It is a nice looking camera. It's 5 times zooming power and 10 MPixels resolution makes it stand out among others in this price range.
