3 out of 5 stars Take it everywhere but not indestructable   July 20, 2008
I am on my second S5. And I have grown used to having one in my pocket. It is about the same size as a wallet and ever so useful. The first one died after 11 months of very hard use, the screen went blank and though it still will take pictures it is hard to tell what you have in the frame. No real complaints with it it been dropped more than a first grader playing catch. The second one has developed a dark spot in the picture a day after the end of warranty. It had not been dropped or juggled nearly as much and it still works.

Things I love about this camera:
Size and shape, it goes everywhere in my front pants pocket, coat and shirt (careful with the shirt or it comes out when you bend over.) The number Good pictures I have because I carried this thing make it worth all its quirks.
The lens is clear under the right conditions.

Cautions:
Focus. You have to go slow let it pick its spot before you actually do the picture. Don't hurry it.
It does not like low light.
Because it is so light and small it is hard to hold steady. I use the self timer all the time on hand held shots.
when the lens cover starts to stick use a vacume so suck out the dust as you turn it on and off a couple of times.
I would get the leather case, it might add some time to its life.



5 out of 5 stars Kool Camera   January 25, 2008
Great camera. I Loved it. Really nice one. It's sleek, takes spendid pictures, and is easy to use. Thee rotating round button makes photo reviewing easy and fun.

I would recomend it to my friends.



2 out of 5 stars Nice pictures, but it did leave spots occasionally   January 4, 2008
I received the camera as a gift. I checked the reviews on the camera and heard about the dots on the pictures (I also read that's why Nikon discontinued this model). Sure enough, after only a few days of use, I had dots in about 5% of the pictures. I didn't want to risk it getting worse, so I returned the camera while it was still under the 30 day warranty. It took amazing pictures, and I hated to part with it, but it's not worth the risk of having to deal with a manufacturer later.


1 out of 5 stars Lens Error: Can't use the camera anymore.   August 17, 2007
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchase this camera a year ago because it looks sleek and I like the option to take pictures at a very close range such as for products that I can display on the web. After a month of usage, I was starting to experience this Lens Error a few times but I didn't pay attention to it because I thought it wasn't big of a problem.

However, lately, the Lens Error became permanent and I can't use it anymore. I can't send it to Nikon for repair because I just missed the warranty. I can't do anything with it and just got to write it off as a bad investment. However, I will never buy any camera from Nikon anymore. I can no longer trust them with their flimsy cameras.



1 out of 5 stars One star is being nice   June 18, 2007
I had this for under a month and went out to take photos. I took two pictures and then the screen went black. I took a few more photos after trying to figure out the problem and came home to download black photos and videos.

I did some searching online (which I should have done beforehand) and this is not uncommon. Nikon is not backing up the problem either and charging up to $200 for the fix.

Save your money for a camera that works. This one ain't it!
