Advantages: High quality pictures over a wide range of scenarios

Disadvantages: Battery has to be removed to charge it

I bought the Nikon Coolpix S560 attracted by its 10 Mega pixels and 5x optical zoom lens and found it had a wide range of useful facilities that I had never considered in my purchasing decision. The camera is comfortable to handle; easy to set up and operate through a simple and logical menu. It has a wide range of shooting, playback and editing options. The fifteen scene modes provide a large range of useful options to cover most eventualities. The face priority and smiling face detection facility guarantees good shots of people and warns you when your subject has their eyes closed. The food mode has proved surprisingly useful for close up shots .The automatic adjustment lets you shoot natural looking photos in low light conditions. The quality of the pictures is first class aided by the vibration reduction feature and with 10 Mega pixels the photos can be cropped to produce excellent results. The high quality movie facility is limited only by the space on your memory card and direct playback to your TV is another useful feature. An excellent, easy to use, value for money camera.

Summary: An excellent, easy to use, value for money camera.
