Coolpix S6
May 29th, 2006.
Our good friends
from the dutch website letsgodigital.org have just published
a review of the slim and compact Nikon Coolpix S6 digital camera.
The Nikon Coolpix S6 is a 6.0 megapixel camera that features
a three times optical zoom, a large 3.0" inch LCD monitor,
and a stylish wave design.
In her review
of the Nikon Coolpix S6, Ilse Jurriën notes:
"I found
working with the Nikon S6 digital camera an exceptionally pleasant
experience. The camera truly lives up to its word; ease, excellent
image quality and superb innovation packaged in a stylish design.
Compactness,
a lightweight body and an entry-level operation are the keywords
that describe the Nikon Coolpix S6 camera. The use of the intelligent
in-camera software, however, is what truly makes the Nikon S6
stand out from its competition."
