User Reviews for Nikon Nikon Coolpix S500

  • Reviewed by: talldude123

    Duration of ownership: 1 Day

    Strengths: Image stabilizer, face detection, optical zoom, rechargable battery.

    Weaknesses: construction, quality needs work.

    Overall Evaluation: Looks like a nice camera for travelling, just be sure to get a case for it. Also the internal memory is a joke, only holds 7 pictures. Be sure to get a memory card, preferrably 2GB, as it holds 500 pictures.
