Nikon Coolpix S6300 Camera Reviews Roundup


Digital Camera Info: "It's probably unfair to judge a camera like the Nikon Coolpix S6300 too harshly. It's a cheap, near-disposable compact digital camera--typically around $130 from reputable online merchants, despite its $199.95 MSRP. Its optical zoom and physical controls give it an edge over even the best smartphones, and you can't really argue with the price. But the truth is, it's just not very good. Let's start with the outside...." - Nov 15 2012 More »
CNET US: "Overall photo quality from the S6300 is above average for this class of camera, suitable for prints up to 8x10 and Web use. At full size they don't look good, though, so its 16-megapixel resolution isn't a reason to buy. Though its sensitivity settings run from ISO 125 to ISO 3200, the S6300 is best used with plenty of light to keep sensitivity below ISO 400. Regardless of sensitivity, photos appear somewhat soft an..." - Sep 13 2012 More »
Photography BLOG: "The Nikon Coolpix S6300 is a thoroughly pleasant camera to use. It's geared for the happy snappers who want something easy and cheerful to take pictures with. This is the camera for such a task. It's not going to change the world; there's no new technology built in. The controls are laid out in a logical fashion, the features will appeal to the market it's aimed at and it looks good. Even just small things such as t..." - Aug 28 2012 More »
Steve's Digicam: "The S6300's ability to work quickly shouldn't be too surprising, considering how many different high-speed continuous shooting modes it makes available. Shooting at up to 120 frames per second, even at a limited resolution, can give you some unique photography options that you typically won't find in a beginner camera. You also can shoot at a few different burst modes at full 16-megapixel resolution. It has a few di..." - Aug 21 2012 More »

Pocket-lint: "The zoom range, equivalent to 25-250mm on a 35mm camera, makes the S6300 more versatile than the average compact, although not to the extent you see on slightly bulkier models like the 18x Samsung WB150F or the 20x Canon PowerShot SX240 HS. Basically, the S6300's lens means you can shoot wide angle interiors or landscapes, then zoom in for a head-and-shoulders portrait. It also takes macro close up shots at its wide..." - Apr 23 2012 More »
ePhotoZine: "Images produced by the S6300 are well exposed with decent colour reproduction. Detail is OK in the centre of the images, with very soft corners and edges, as well as purple fringing in contrasting areas. The lens as a minimum focusing distance of 10cm, this makes it difficult to get a really close-up macro shot. When viewing the ISO test charts there is a glow around some of the brighter parts, but this doesn't effe..." - Apr 11 2012 More »
