Top Nikon Coolpix S50c Camera Reviews
Trusted Reviews wrote a review on the
Nikon Coolpix S50c and said: "Image quality was average at
best, with image noise visible on shots even at the minimum of
100 ISO, and visible compression artefacts in pictures even at
the maximum quality setting. While exposure was generally
accurate, colour reproduction was a bit under-saturated and
generally lacked contrast."
CNET wrote a review on the
Nikon Coolpix S50c and said: "Image quality was good, but
not outstanding, for an ultracompact. Colors were generally
accurate and the camera's automatic white-balance system did a
decent job"
Nikon Coolpix S50c News Release Summary:
The COOLPIX S50c is as Stunning as the Pictures it Takes
MELVILLE, NY (February 19, 2007) – Nikon has added two new
stylish and feature-packed digital cameras to the Nikon COOLPIX
Style Series line-up, the S50c. This camera combines enhanced
imaging quality and performance with an eye-catching wave
surface design. The COOLPIX S50c boasts 7.2 effective megapixels,
a 3x Zoom-Nikkor glass lens and a huge, bright 3.0 inch LCD
screen. These cameras also utilize an Optical VR Image
Stabilization system, ensuring the consumer will be able to
capture stunningly sharp images. What's more, the COOLPIX S50c
also offers the additional advantage of a built in Wireless
capability for e-mail and image storage with the enhanced
COOLPIX CONNECT 2 service.
“The COOLPIX S50c combines technologies that are Nikon
hallmarks: exquisite design coupled with superior optics and
high resolution with advanced picture taking functions that
allow anyone to take great pictures, ” says Bill Giordano,
General Manager Marketing, COOLPIX for Nikon Inc.
Bye-bye blur
Not only does the COOLPIX S50c feature 7.2 effective megapixels,
allowing the consumer to make superior quality prints in a
variety of sizes, it also incorporates advanced technologies
which help create new opportunities to take sharper, and more
natural looking photos. These technologies include the new
Optical VR Image Stabilization, high sensitivity up to ISO 1600,
and Best Shot Selector (BSS) which can all be activated by
pressing the Anti-Shake Button, conveniently located on the top
of the camera. These features allow the S50c to produce shots
that are steady, sharp and stunning.
Beauty with brains
Nikon is making it easier than ever to get great-looking
pictures with a handy One-Touch Portrait Button that acts as a
shortcut to three Nikon In-Camera Image Innovations to correct
common photo problems. This system includes Face-priority AF,
which was the first system to automatically find and focus on a
subject’s face, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix, which automatically
detects and corrects red-eye, and D-Lighting, an innovation that
automatically creates a copy of the image with detail added
where necessary, but with well-exposed areas left completely
untouched. These cameras also feature huge, bright, high
resolution 3.0-inch LCD monitors with a 170-degree viewing angle
and an anti-reflection coating, so they are able to facilitate
easier composition and high-quality playback anywhere, even in
direct sunlight.
Furthermore, the LCD monitors serve as excellent platforms for
Pictmotion™, which allows users to select their favorite images
or movies, as well as music (up to 10 songs) and combine them
automatically in-camera to produce audiovisual shows in VGA
quality for the ultimate photo-sharing experience.
Going Wireless
COOLPIX S50c users can take advantage of Nikon’s wireless
transfer features through the latest version of COOLPIX CONNECT.
With COOLPIX CONNECT 2 users can share pictures with friends and
family from just about anywhere by emailing images directly from
the camera through open access wireless hotspots. Now, S50c
users can also store up to 2 gigabytes of images and movies to a
secure Nikon server, providing a valuable back-up or an
opportunity to clear memory from the SD card when capturing
images away from home.
The COOLPIX S50c comes bundled with Nikon's PictureProject
software. The PictureProject software is powerful and
user-friendly and makes transferring, organizing, editing, and
sharing photos a snap.
The COOLPIX S50c will be available nationwide in April 2007. The
S50c has an MSRP of $349.95. For more information about these
and other COOLPIX cameras, please visit www.nikondigital.com.
