Packing stylish elegance, high performance and advanced functions into the smallest body among competing compact digital cameras, the COOLPIX S550 fits comfortably in the hand and simplifies picture-taking operation.

Exceptional image quality with greater creative freedom distinguishes the 5x Zoom-NIKKOR lens (36-180mm 35mm format equivalent) for the COOLPIX S550. Employing four aspherical elements and delivering telephoto reach up to 180mm, its quality NIKKOR optics also allow macro shooting from as close as 3.9 inches to your subject.

Compensating for the effects of camera shake to realize sharper results, electronic VR image stabilization frees you to enjoy capturing special moments without worrying about slight hand movements, particularly in lower light conditions.

That’s plenty of sharp resolution to capture the finest details, crop creatively and produce beautiful enlargements. Optimizing performance and color reproduction is an advanced new image-processing engine, EXPEED.

Compensates for underexposed images or insufficient flash by automatically adding light and detail to selected shots where needed, without affecting properly exposed areas.

REVIEW BY: SpeakerGee Reviewed  Apr 25, 2008 

i bought this camera to replace my HP Mz67, which I was very disappointed with. This camera is 10 Megapixels, and the quality of the pictures reflects it’s high pixel count. The otpical zoom is adequate, and with 10 megapixels, the digital zoom actually produces quality photos. The best feature of all is the image stabilization. With the HP, this feature was nonexistent and the biggest problem with the camera. On the Nikon, this feature works wonders. I love this camera and highly recommend it. It’s easy to use, produces quality pics and has a great feature set.

I was shocked to see how great the pictures were from this camera. I have another digital, but it doesn’t come close to this. You can see the difference of the Nikor lense. I have had it about a week now, and am still learning the modes. Otherwise, it is very easy to use. Great features, you can actually take a good picture while waving your hand. Fantastic zoom. Would prefer a lense viewer for outside, but the screen is still brighter outdoors than most. Would prefer AA bateries, but theis charge lasts for weeks, and the electronics would probably not be as good. Connect cord looks like an octopus, (Go Wings), would have been better to have two cords, because I never use the movie mode. I love this camara, and take it with me everywhere.
