Customer Critiques

This is a excellent tiny camera with alot of enjoyable characteristics. I had a challenging time deciding among the s8100 and the s6100 simply because the s8100 takes more rapidly photos, 1080 video, a better sensor, and bigger zoom.The attributes listed below are the reasons I chose the s6100.

Touch screen--can use your finger but it can be a tiny tricky to move it just perfect. It does come with a stylus that permits you to move via the screens swiftly. Makes it pretty painless to get by means of the menus. The menu on the left has the alternatives for flash, self-timer, macro, and exposure compensation. The menu on the bottom has the options for touch shutter, image mode, film choices, and settings. The battery levels are always displayed in the left hand corner so there is no guessing how a lot battery is left. Above that the scene mode is displayed.

Scene choice--There are 19 scenes to pick from plus the scene auto selector. When you push the scene button and all 20 options are listed there is a question mark box in the upper suitable hand corner that will explain the distinct modes to aid you pick the right 1.

Filter Effects--It has the ability to draw or write on photographs, add decorations, cross screen, fish eye, selective color, black and white, sepia. I have messed around with a couple of of these features, I will attempt to upload a couple of images. It also has glamour retouch and skin softening.

Playback button--Has solutions to star a photo as favored, delete, slide show, guard, print, draw, retouch, voice record, and settings.

Charger--This camera can charge by means of your laptop or it also has an adapter considerably like most cell phones now do so you can use the USB cord to charge working with an outlet. There is a light on the back that flashes to let you know it is charging.

The devoted film button tends to make it really straight forward to record videos. As opposed to the 8100, you cannot take a photo while you are recording with the 6100.

From the opinion of a hobby photographer, I feel there are alot of attributes nicely packaged into this pocket-sized camera.

I've owned this camera for three-months and waited until now to write a review because it was a gift and I certainly wanted to like this camera. But the much more I've applied it the much less I like it. To be fair, it can take a descent image under optimal circumstances if you are careful, but so can a 1968 Kodak Brownie in the correct hands. I honestly expected extra from Nikon and modern day electronic technology.

Let me give you a small much more background... I'm 63 years old and I've been taking images considering that I was 8 years old. Last winter I suffered a stroke which affected the coordination in my left hand and I located it difficuly to operate my Nikon D50 SLR. My wife, trying to be good to me purchased an S6100 for my birthday simply because she assumed that a point-and-shoot would be simpler and less frustrating for me to use than my D50 SLR. I was excited to get it and try it out. The Nikon S6100 was smaller, lighter and less complicated to carry. As far as getting much easier to use,

it is NOT! A person would anticipate an automatic point-and-shoot camera to be just that, point it, press the shutter release and get a fair picture most of the time. That is something this camera cannot do with any regularity. A pox on Nikons house for the damn touch screen controls! Why have a touch screen shutter release function that duplicates the function of the shutter release button? Although you attempt to hold the camera with your appropriate hand you are nearly forced to touch the screen even though trying to frame the image and push the "true button". This even more usually than not activates the shutter resulting in a image of the ground, your pant leg, or shoe. Then though you wait for the exceedingly slow electronics to retailer that image on the memory card, you miss several oportunities to try for a really good shot. Would that this was the only situation with the touch screen. Nikon designed this cameras controls so the ONLY way to manage various camera functions is via a menu method controlled utilizing the touch screen. If that were not bad enough the screen itself is not sensitive sufficient to respond well to a finger touch unless you use a lengthy finger nail or the tiny stylus hung on the wrist strap. This almost insures that you cannot make any sort of fast choice changes whilst you attempt to shoot. You can wonder if that screen does something else. Yes, it shows a pretty vibrant image to use as a viewfinder or to critique photos of your shoes taken by mistake. Of course it is constantly smugged and dirty considering you have to be touching it all the time.

How about the overall function? The S6100 is as functional as most of it is competitors in the crowded point-and-shoot field. It really is a snapshot camera at perfect loaded with hard to manage functions and entirely unecessary post shooting editing functions that are much far better performed on your computer immediately after you download the photos. I expected better from Nikon and I certainly believed that a 16 megapixel sensor would capture far better excellent shots. Again I was disappointed. My 6 megapixel D50 captures greater images and it is more than five-years old. In anything other than optimal light, the automatic functions of the S6100 bump up the ISO a few clicks and as soon as that is occurred the image swiftly gets grainy with no gaining excellent exposure. Once more I confident expected far better from the newer class of sensors and software package. The S6100 can also take Quicktime motion pictures with a single press of the movie button on the back. This would be a nice function if the film button were not little placed straight below the correct side thumb grip, almost ensuring that you will take some brief films you did not want, once more ordinarily of the ground, your shoe, or the sky.

Oh, and then there is battery life. Not too wonderful. I can get possibly 200 shots and a short film before the "battery exhausted" message pops up on the screen, and then you are performed due to the fact the only way to recharge it is to plug the whole camera into the charger or a laptop or computer USB port, you will be out of luck in the field unless you invest in a second battery, preserve it charged and in your pocket while you'r out shooting.

Do you feel I've been be too negative about the S6100?

Right here are the wonderful things about it:

1. It is smaller, light, and fits simply in a shirt pocket or purse

2. The zoom lens is Nikon, and they do make the finest optics and the wide to full zoom is all you will most likely ever need to have.

3. When you manage to get a snap shot it is commonly of adequate quality, at least for your loved ones album.

MY RECOMMEDATIONS:

If you want a point-and shoot Nikon, check out the S8100 or S9100, each much improved cameras at only a slightly greater cost.

If you want fantastic pictures and care about control of your camera functions get a Digital SLR and understand how to use it.

If you want a touch screen get a wise telephone. Most of those will take photographs and motion pictures too, and might be easier to use than this camera, plus when you get frustrated with the smugged up touch screen, at least you can use it to call a person who cares.
