Client Evaluations

This is a superb tiny camera with alot of enjoyable characteristics. I had a challenging time deciding in between the s8100 and the s6100 because the s8100 takes more rapidly pictures, 1080 video, a far better sensor, and bigger zoom.The characteristics 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 ideal. It does come with a stylus that makes it possible for you to move through the screens quickly. Makes it extremely simple to get by way of the menus. The menu on the left has the choices for flash, self-timer, macro, and exposure compensation. The menu on the bottom has the selections for touch shutter, image mode, movie options, and settings. The battery levels are at all times displayed in the left hand corner so there is no guessing how much battery is left. Above that the scene mode is displayed.

Scene choice--There are 19 scenes to pick out 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 correct hand corner that will clarify the different modes to assist you select the proper a single.

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

Playback button--Has options to star a photo as preferred, delete, slide show, protect, print, draw, retouch, voice record, and settings.

Charger--This camera can charge through your computer system or it also has an adapter substantially like most cell phones now do so you can use the USB cord to charge employing an outlet. There is a light on the back that flashes to let you know it is charging.

The devoted movie button makes it really straightforward to record videos. In contrast to the 8100, you cannot take a photo whilst you are recording with the 6100.

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

I've owned this camera for three-months and waited until now to write a critique because it was a gift and I really wanted to like this camera. But the additional I've applied it the less I like it. To be fair, it can take a descent picture below optimal circumstances if you are cautious, but so can a 1968 Kodak Brownie in the correct hands. I honestly expected far more from Nikon and modern electronic technology.

Let me give you a tiny a lot more background... I am 63 years old and I've been taking images due to the fact I was 8 years old. Last winter I suffered a stroke which affected the coordination in my left hand and I identified it difficuly to operate my Nikon D50 SLR. My wife, trying to be good to me bought an S6100 for my birthday considering she assumed that a point-and-shoot would be easier 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 difficult to carry. As far as becoming less difficult 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 image most of the time. That's a thing this camera can't do with any regularity. A pox on Nikons residence for the damn touch screen controls! Why have a touch screen shutter release function that duplicates the function of the shutter release button? Though you attempt to hold the camera with your appropriate hand you are pretty much forced to touch the screen though trying to frame the image and push the "real button". This a great deal more frequently than not activates the shutter resulting in a image of the ground, your pant leg, or shoe. Then whilst you wait for the exceedingly slow electronics to retailer that image on the memory card, you miss a few oportunities to attempt for a beneficial shot. Would that this was the only situation with the touch screen. Nikon designed this cameras controls so the ONLY way to manage many camera functions is via a menu program controlled utilizing the touch screen. If that were not negative sufficient the screen itself is not sensitive sufficient to respond nicely to a finger touch unless you use a extended finger nail or the tiny stylus hung on the wrist strap. This virtually insures that you can't make any sort of quick option modifications when you try to shoot. You may perhaps wonder if that screen does something else. Yes, it shows a fairly bright image to use as a viewfinder or to critique pictures of your shoes taken by mistake. Of course it is constantly smugged and dirty for the reason that 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 is a snapshot camera at ideal loaded with hard to manage capabilities and totally unecessary post shooting editing functions that are significantly improved done on your laptop or computer following you download the images. I expected far better from Nikon and I undoubtedly thought that a 16 megapixel sensor would capture much better high quality shots. Once again I was disappointed. My 6 megapixel D50 captures greater images and it really is more than 5-years old. In anything other than optimal light, the automatic functions of the S6100 bump up the ISO a couple of clicks and as soon as that's happened the image swiftly gets grainy with out gaining great exposure. Once more I confident expected improved from the newer class of sensors and computer software. The S6100 can also take Quicktime films with a single press of the movie button on the back. This would be a good function if the film button had been not modest placed directly below the proper side thumb grip, almost ensuring that you will take some short movies you didn't want, once again often of the ground, your shoe, or the sky.

Oh, and then there is battery life. Not too fine. I can get perhaps 200 shots and a short film just before the "battery exhausted" message pops up on the screen, and then you are done because the only way to recharge it is to plug the whole camera into the charger or a personal computer USB port, you will be out of luck in the field unless you invest in a second battery, keep it charged and in your pocket when you'r out shooting.

Do you believe I've been be too unfavorable about the S6100?

Right here are the very good factors about it:

1. It really is tiny, light, and fits readily in a shirt pocket or purse

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

three. When you manage to get a snap shot it is normally of sufficient quality, at least for your loved ones album.

MY RECOMMEDATIONS:

If you want a point-and shoot Nikon, check out the S8100 or S9100, both a lot far better cameras at only a slightly greater value.

If you want awesome images 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 intelligent phone. Most of those will take pictures and films too, and might possibly be much 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 somebody who cares.
