“This camera with its great touchscreen controls earned my full recommendation. It does a wonderful job in bright outdoor light and is stuffed with really neat features and on top of that takes great images. If you’re after a neat touch screen compact camera here it is however, if you’ll be shooting low light or fast moving subject you might be better off looking at another camera.”

“I hate to say it but this camera is a terrible performer and the resulting photos are bad too. It’s big and a slow poke. Canon Powershots are way better, which is why Canon sells more compact cameras than Nikon, by a lot. I crossed my fingers and hoped that once the photos got onto my computer that all complaining about it being slow and bulky would be made up for by great photo quality. Wishful thinking on my part. The pictures were terrible with fuzzy corners no matter what I set the camera at.”

COOLPIX S570 FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS
Intelligent automation contributes to carefree shooting
Nikon’s Scene Auto Selector eliminates the need to manually select a scene mode to match the shot, making it faster and easier to capture the moment. The COOLPIX S570 uses this intelligent function to analyse the subject and surrounding setting and automatically selects the most appropriate of the following six scene modes to achieve optimal results — Portrait, Landscape, Night Portrait, Night Landscape, Close-up, or Backlight.
Four advanced image stabilising features help ensure sharper results
Nikon’s electronic VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilisation compensates for the effects of camera shake. Motion Detection automatically controls shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for subject movement as well as camera shake. ISO 3200 capability at any image size up to its maximum of 4000 x 3000 pixels allows faster shutter speeds when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects. Nikon’s original BSS (Best Shot Selector) function automatically shoots a series of sequential frames and saves the one with the sharpest focus.
Quick Retouch
Quick Retouch adds the right finishing touch to your photos by automatically creating a retouched copy with the best balance of contrast and saturation.
