Nikon Coolpix S550 Review
Review Summary
Review (Summary): "Such a small camera with such a large zoom. The Nikon Coolpix S550 has a 5x optical zoom packed into the thin exterior. I'm thinking that maybe it's a TARDIS with its blue shell. Powering it up and a small harp strum emits to hide the motor of the lens although it's quiet enough anyway. ...

... It's a camera designed to flatter you and to make sure you look good while you're socializing with friends and family. Frankly this is the only time you'll really use the S550...."

Review (Summary): "The CoolPix S550 is one of a new generation of Nikon premium ultra-compacts that started with the launch of the S500 in June last year. The range, denoted by triple-digit numbers, now stands at eight models, ranging from the ultra-slim 7.1-megapixel S200 to the 12.1-megapixel S700. The S550 is toward the top end of the range in terms of specification. As well as its 10.0-megapixel 1/2.3-inch sensor it features a 5x optical zoom lens with a focal length range equivalent to 36-180mm, a 2.5-inch 230k wide-view monitor and electronic image stabilization at slow shutter speeds. ...

... Overall performance is a bit slow by current standards, and final picture quality has a few problems, but on the whole it acquits itself reasonably well. The only question is how will it measures up to its recent competitors."
