Product Description
A slim, sophisticated digital compact camera, the Nikon Coolpix S7c packs good looks and great performance into compact dimensions, while offering the advantage of vibration reduction and innovations for in-camera image improvement. Combining 7.1 effective megapixels of imaging performance with a 35-105mm (35mm equivalent) Zoom-Nikkor ED lens, the Coolpix S7c can capture everything from wide-open landscapes to tight portraits with outstanding clarity and true-to-life color. It features a large, bright 3.0-inch LCD monitor with a wide 170-degree viewing angle, enabling smoother composition and high-quality playback. The Coolpix S7c offers Vibration Reduction (VR) capabilities to compensate for camera shake and unsteady subjects for sharper, clearer results. High-Sensitivity mode selects the optimal setting up to ISO 1600 when shooting fast-moving or poorly lit subjects. The Coolpix S7c measures approximately 3.9in W x 2.4in H x .08in L, weighs .35 LBS. and is backed by a 1 year warranty.

4 out of 5 stars Nikon S7c camera   August 6, 2008
PRO:
compact, small and flat.
Large viewing screen.
Versitile
Handles 8gb SD cards
Better than not having a camera but a full size Canon ESO or Nikon D80 are the way to go for real picture quality in fast bumpy conditions like wakeboarding.

Con:
Video is at a low resolution.
Video imagage stability is shakey.
Small on/off button and zoom buttoms are difficult to use.
Changing from video to picture must be done by a menu.
Slow operation compared to full size cameras.
Protect the large screen, we broke ours snow skiing.

Buy 4-6 extra batteries.
Internal flash eats batteries quickly.

Docking station is OK but would like cord only option for traveling.



1 out of 5 stars not worth it!   July 10, 2008
I received this camera as a gift from my husband who had been listening to me say I wanted a smaller digital camera to capture the everyday moments of our three kids. I previously had a Canon Powershot G3 which I loved, although it was bulky and hard to carry around when I had my three small kids with me. That being said, this camera is a waste of money. While it is small and fits nicely in my purse, I have yet to get one nice photo out of it. I consistenly get blurry pictures and all the lower light shots have subject who have these bright white eyes that can not be photo shopped out. I sent it back to Nikon who "repaired" it for free, however the repair did nothing. I have had my pictures from several imporatant occasions ruined by this camera and am planning to trade it in for anthother Canon soon.

Great looks too



2 out of 5 stars Not a good camera   November 29, 2007
I had a Minolta DimageX that died after several years of abuse and great photo's. So looking for a new camera I selected the s7c to use as my next pocket camera based on all great early reviews from the photos sites. I should have waited for user reviews, I hate this camera and the night pictures are bad. I mostly use this for night shots when I am out with friends, dark pictures don't focus well. The red-eye reduction flash is so long that people think you have taken the photo and move by the time the shutter actually goes (if you turn off the red-eye reduction it helps a little, just need to fix it later). The shutter lag is extremely long, it feels like you are there pressing the button for hours - and the button for me is small. Hard to use. So after much experimenting, I am able to get decent night pictures about 75% of the time (I have no complaints about day photos), but if you give this camera to another person to try and take a photo of you, you are almost assured of a bad photo. They will line it up, but it won't come out good, it will be blurry. It takes someone experienced with the camera to get a halfway decent photo.

At this point I long for my 2 megapixel Minolta...



3 out of 5 stars an OK camera   October 10, 2007
pros:
small, good in size, I always keep it in my purse.
very nice outdoor picture

cons:
poor auto focus, slow when taking pics, poor in low light

I never use the ISO mode, hate it!

It seems like the CanonSD800 sounds better!
