Steve’s Digicams - 3/10/2007 - reviews the 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S6 and writes, “The Nikon Coolpix S9 is a mixed bag. While offering good image quality, loads of user-friendly exposure modes, and a stylish “ultra-compact” body, the sluggish shooting performance dwindles a lot of its appeal.”

TechTree - 2/23/2007 - reviews the 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S6 and writes, “It is ’supposedly’ the budget version in their S-series and they sure have cut some corners to get it in the market. Overall, the camera looks like an S-series member, but surely doesn’t behave like one. I’m sure you can give slip to this one”

PhotoReview - 2/21/2007 - reviews the 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S6 and writes, “At $150 less than the Coolpix S8, Nikon’s Coolpix S9 looks like a good buy. Although its sensor resolution is lower, at 6-megapixels it is still high enough for snapshots, which will be the main application for this camera. Both cameras have 3x optical zoom lenses, although the S8 covers a slightly wider angle of view. Both sport 2.5-inch LCD monitors, although the S9’s resolution is lower than the S8’s - and it shows!.

ComputerActive - 2/12/2007 - reviews the 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S6 and writes, “With the lens on the far right (if viewed from the front) stray finger tips do sometimes mess up a shot, and, as we’ve found with previous Nikon Coolpix’s, it takes a Herculean effort to avoid blurred images in less than perfect light when avoiding flash. Colours are cool, though lent needed warmth by a vivid option.

Pocket-lint - 2/9/2007 - has reviewed the 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S6 and writes, “Perhaps not one for the more advanced user, problems with image detail and JPEG artefacts frustrate an otherwise nice camera. Nikon’s Coolpix S9 is undoubtedly a stylish and easy to use (once you’ve mastered a couple of the small control issues) little camera that makes for a neat little snapper at a good price.”

Cameras.co.uk - 1/31/2007 - has a video guide to the 6 megapixel Nikon Coolpix S6 and writes, “A few features that are not found on that many other digital cameras are D lighting, time lapse movies and a best shot selector. Using D lighting brightens a picture after it has been taken. This can help to rescue photos that are underexposed and too dark. Time lapse movies work by the camera taking a photo at the end of an allotted time delay. Typical uses are to show clouds moving a cross the sky or a flower opening. The best shot selector will select what the camera considers to be the best photo from a set of photos you have taken. The selection criteria are based on points such as sharpness and brightness.”
