Nikon Coolpix S5 Review at Steves Digicams

Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | April 10, 2006 | 0 Comments

Nikon Coolpix S5DIWA member and Steves Digicams have reviewed the new 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S5 digital camera.

“I was disappointed with one aspect of the lens, however; it has a fixed aperture. The lens does include an electronically-controlled neutral-density filter that reduces the available light to an effective f/8 from f/3 at wide angle, but that step is sometimes too great, causing the exposure system to select it in combination with a slow shutter speed, sometimes resulting in images blurred by camera shake even in bright sunlight. The lens also exhibits a bit of vignetting, or light fall-off at the corners.”
