Customer Reviews
Flexible fast enough and very small
If you need quick good resolution pics this is a fine small camera. Very bright screen. Good battery life. Easy to whip out of a pocket or case. Much quicker to adjust exposure flash ISO than my more expensive Nikon. The only drawback is that the lenses dont seem as sharp as higher-end models but who would use this to shoot and print 16 x 20 professional pics anyway? Oh and the 3X zoom is a limit but not one that I felt uncomfortable with. This camera is becoming an unconscious extension of my seeing unlike bigger cameras that are always somewhat intrusive.
Battery charger is included
I purchased this camera about 5 weeks ago just before leaving on a 3 week overseas trip so had little time to familiarize myself with the majority of the numerous features. But the camera is easy to use at least as far as the basic "point and shoot" practice goes. Im very pleased with the large display although it sometimes still is hard to see the shot when in a bright outdoor setting. But I typically could make out some basic outlines as opposed to my previous p & s pocket size Minolta camera S2 where the display was useless in any lighting conditions brighter than daytime outdoor with a full cloud cover. That as well as the fact that the battery charge on the Minolta seemed to last for fewer and fewer shots even on replacement batteries. A viewfinder on the Nikon would be nice in those very bright outdoor situations but I guess that that is the trade-off for getting a screen that is almost the size of the camera Im not kidding: its 2 3/8 inches wide on the camera which is 3 3/8 wide overall. Im very pleased with the quality of the shots I took about 200 some of which were shot from a moving train and still seem sharp. My main reason for writing this review is to make others aware of two things: 1. The camera comes with its own battery charger. The reason I bring this up is that no-where in the written specs on Amazon did it say anything on this topic. Furthermore somewhere on the Amazon website it also drew attention to "Customers who purchased this camera also purchased the following:" one of which was a battery charger. I went to the Nikon website and got the impression that a charger was included which is what I would have expected. Since I could not afford the time it would take to order a battery charger once I received the camera and found no charger I phoned Amazon customer service to ask the question. That person came back on line after researching this for several minutes and told me that the camera did NOT come with a charger. So I of course ordered the charger from a different supplier than the camera all thru Amazon. Both Amazon and this second supplier were very accomodating in giving me a refund as well as Amazon refunding my s & h charge but it still cost me some $7 for return shipping. The second issue is the tight fit of this camera in the Nikon Coolpix leather case also offered by Amazon from yet a third supplier. It is very easy to inadvertently turn the camera on when pushing the camera into the case and evidently the camera stays "on" until the battery is totally discharged. Nikon had no suggestions / never heard of this problem. I managed to pound out the top of both sides of the case enough to not have that happen again.
Excellent Photos Abysmal Audio
I was so excited to receive my brand new CoolPix S52 Eco-Green and the photos were really quite excellent. I was also pleased that it was very easy to learn how to use the various camera features. HOWEVER when I used the movie or voice recording modes there was a very high level of awful static sound recorded EVERY TIME. I upgraded to the best memory card I could find and that did not make a bit of difference. Naturally I returned the camera under Warranty with sample video/audio to Nikon TWICE for repair or replacement. To my dismay they returned it to me both times stating "Your unit was thoroughly checked and was found completely within the factory standards". They also said not to expect the sound quality to be excellent because it didnt have a "sophisticated microphone". Maybe so but it shouldnt be so poor that you cringe when you listen to the playback. I was so disappointed that I sold the camera used and replaced it with a Canon PowerShot SD850 IS Digital Elph Canon PowerShot SD850 IS 8.0 MP Digital Elph Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom that I am extremely happy with both photos and sound are fantastic. Bottom line - if recording movies is important to you dont buy this camera. It will be a big disappointment and a waste of money. If you decide to buy it be sure to test the movie and sound recording modes soon after you receive it to be sure you are satisfied.

Nikon case is way too big for the camera though but it doesnt matter cause the tripod comes with another camera case thats just the right size The only downside is that card is SDCH and the card reader is for SD cards only
