Customer Reviews

Nikon Coolpix S52 Digital Camera
Nice and cool camera, compact and user friendly. Got clear view on LCD monitor under any lighting condition. Reasonably priced. One charge lasts for at least 200 pictures. Like to recommend to everybody.

Excellent camera
I bought it for my daughter and she absolutely loves it and it is so user friendly for even someone like me who never takes good picture.

Great little camera, but not very rugged.
Bought one for my Mom, one for my son, and one for myself, when they went on sale at Ritz camera for 150.00. Menu is so easy to understand, my Mom was even able to figure it out with a little help. Got it for her to load pics on Ebay. The LCD is so clear and big, I am able to take video clips of my golf swing, and view them on sunny days at the course. This is being phased out for the newer 10MP S-60, which has the touch screen, which I dont really need anyway. Only complaint on the Nikon Coolpix models...DONT DROP THEM! Mine fell about 12 inches, off my computer to the desk, and the LCD broke internally. If my cell phone was this delicate I would have to replace it once a week. Only other complaint would be the proprietary USB plug which seems to change every year with Nikon and cost a fortune if you lose it. Other cameras I looked at that had the standard USB plug and were more rugged, either didnt have the big LCD screen or didnt use the new SDHC high speed memory cards which are the best.
