Summary: Some excitement, some surprises!
Comment: Bought this as a present for my wife... works fine as a basic camera with low res video recording as well.

Love the following:
1. Size of the display screen - Ahhmazing!
2. handy - small enough to fit comfortably in pockets/ handbags
3. Simple to use.

Some surprises and disappointments were
1. Never could get the Wi-fi to work
2. Flash pictures taken at night have some white spots - I believe it could be due to the fact that the flash is too close to the lens.
3. While taking videos, the powerful microphone also records the noise of the lens focussing, which can be annoying if shooting in a quiet place without too much ambient noise.
4. Because there is no viewfinder, shooting in bright sunlight is a challenge - or an act of faith - you just have to trust that the camera will get what you want - but cant see in the bright light!

Will not highly recommend.

Enjoy!

Summary: Nice overall, but blurry with poor light, and wifi annoying to use
Comment: Pretty nice overall. Great screen! Good video capability! Works with all Windows, Mac, & Linux just fine via USB. The wifi is annoying to use on the camera, and also is only with Windows I think.

Taking pictures in the evening tends to have blurry results (often I am too close or too far for the flash to be much use.). Also, the flash is somewhat overly "hard" (rather than soft), so I don't really like how the pictures look with flash.

I wish it was easier to switch between video and photo modes.

Summary: Not The best Camera
Comment: Love it when it works, had to send it in twice already for repair. Would not buy a small Nikon again, love my SLR though from Nikon. You get what you pay for.

Summary: not worth it.
Comment: i got my camera back in february of 2007, and have been using it on and off. i also experienced the image stabilization problem, however, and the flash goes crazy sometimes. however the WORST problem happened today, when i was outside taking a picture like normal and the LCD screen just went completely black on me. any subsequent pictures i took all came out black, although i could view the previous pictures with no problem. i have since spent about three hours googling the problem and reading up on what others have to say, and it turns out nikon has this recurring problem with many of its models. most people have had to buy new cameras because the repairs cost about 180 dollars, unless you have a model which is covered under the service advisory that nikon put out regarding this issue. unfortunately, the s6 is NOT covered.

i gave this camera two stars because it was fine while it lasted. it wasn't the greatest, but it definitely screamed sleek and beautiful. i will not be make the mistake of buying another nikon camera again, however.

Summary: I love this camera!
Comment: I have seen and worked with other digital cameras, and became boggled quite easily with all the options... not to say this one doesn't have them...
but, really, there are only a few buttons on the camera, and each one of them can get you to everything you need! I was a little scared with setting up the software to download my photos, and it was easy too! Everything was neatly spelled out for me, and extremely friendly. I use my camera every day, and I can get some fabulous up close photos of all the flowers in my garden, including any bugs inside, with the macro option, which is also a breeze to use! Buying and shipping were easy, too!
