Nikon Coolpix S500
I picked up one of these new Nikon P & S cameras about three weeks ago.
Purchased online for $239.00/US. Although I've only snapped about 300 shots so far, I have a good opinion of it, but have many more photos to shoot in testing all of it's features. This is the 7.1 MegaPixel model that has the optical VR (Vibration Reduction) and shoots up to ISO 2000. Very small size (smaller than a pack of cigarettes, and only about 4oz. in weight. I am a complete amateur regarding photography and this camera is producing photos that make me feel like a Pro. The portraits are incredible. Very easy to use. Just wondering if anyone else has one & if so, what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Here's Nikon's web page for this camera. http://nikonimaging.com/global/produ...s500/index.htm |

Thanks GMan!
I am looking forward to buy this camera but i didn't find any user opinions or actual reviews. Good to hear that this could be good camera. I'll probably get this camera later in this month. Thanks. |

I don't like that the only file type it creates JPeG, I would rather have a Panasonic DMC-LX2, it's got it all, raw file type and lens shift, but no hot shoe (which can always be remedied with a slave flash or a slave on a flash foot).
