4.0 out of 5 stars Very good image quality BUT with no manual controls
Noise is not noticeable at Iso 50 and even at Iso 100.
Star-up is quite fast, the camera is ready to shoot at just 2 seconds.
The lag between shot and shot is slow, u have to wait no less than 3.5 seconds before taking the next shot.
The Nikon S5 is made of metal, the look is really good very stilish and pocketable (super slim).
IMHO a huge...

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good image quality BUT with no manual controls, January 3, 2007
This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S5 6MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (White) (Electronics)
Noise is not noticeable at Iso 50 and even at Iso 100.
Star-up is quite fast, the camera is ready to shoot at just 2 seconds.
The lag between shot and shot is slow, u have to wait no less than 3.5 seconds before taking the next shot.
The Nikon S5 is made of metal, the look is really good very stilish and pocketable (super slim).
IMHO a huge limitation on the S5 is the lack of manual controls to set the aperture and the shutter speed. Also the built-in flash is quite weak
Id buy again this item

This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S5 6MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (White) (Electronics)

CONS:
1) no image stabilizer makes taking night pictures a really pain
2) slightly dark pictures

The lack of an image stabilizer is a serious problem in my opiniion, as people buy these cameras for personal, indoor, use. If you can't take pictures in dim light (a fancy restaurant or a party), half the fun is cut off...

5.0 out of 5 stars User-friendly Fun Camera, November 6, 2007
This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S5 6MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (White) (Electronics)
The S5 provides a simple point-and-shoot digital platform for amateurs and novice photographers. It allows you a decent amount of control over your settings while still providing good auto settings.

Incredibly fast to power on and pocket-sized, this camera is ideal for point-and-shoot digital photography.
