Nikon Coolpix S210 Digital Camera Review

- Another inexpensive, superslim pocket camera in the entry-level point-and-shoot class, the 8-megapixel Nikon Coolpix S210 isn't short on good looks. The S210 is available in an array of understated brushed-metallic colors. Priced at $180, this 0.7-inch-wide camera fits easily in the palm of your hand. It lacks a viewfinder but devotes about two-thirds of its back to a bright, 2.5-inch-diagonal LCD, leaving enough space for a fairly secure grip.

User Reviews for Nikon Coolpix S210

  • Reviewed by: PJ2000

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Great looks

    Weaknesses: eVR - would have preferred optical VR

    Overall Evaluation: Seems to be a good entry level point & shoot with great looks and a decent price. The "electronic" Vibration Reduction probably isn't as good as "optical" VR.
