Client Critiques
This is a awesome tiny camera with alot of enjoyable characteristics. I had a hard time deciding between the s8100 and the s6100 since the s8100 takes more quickly photos, 1080 video, a improved sensor, and bigger zoom.The capabilities listed below are the factors I chose the s6100.
Touch screen--can use your finger but it can be a small tricky to move it just ideal. It does come with a stylus that allows you to move via the screens rapidly. Tends to make it very uncomplicated to get by means of the menus. The menu on the left has the options for flash, self-timer, macro, and exposure compensation. The menu on the bottom has the alternatives for touch shutter, image mode, film possibilities, and settings. The battery levels are often displayed in the left hand corner so there is no guessing how substantially battery is left. Above that the scene mode is displayed.
Scene selection--There are 19 scenes to pick out from plus the scene auto selector. When you push the scene button and all 20 solutions are listed there is a question mark box in the upper suitable hand corner that will clarify the several modes to aid you choose the ideal 1.
Filter Effects--It has the capacity to draw or write on pictures, add decorations, cross screen, fish eye, selective color, black and white, sepia. I have messed about with a few of these features, I will try to upload a handful of photos. It also has glamour retouch and skin softening.
Playback button--Has choices to star a photo as favored, delete, slide show, defend, print, draw, retouch, voice record, and settings.
Charger--This camera can charge through your personal computer or it also has an adapter much like most cell phones now do so you can use the USB cord to charge utilizing an outlet. There is a light on the back that flashes to let you know it is charging.
The dedicated movie button tends to make it especially very simple to record videos. Unlike the 8100, you can't take a photo when you are recording with the 6100.
From the opinion of a hobby photographer, I assume there are alot of features nicely packaged into this pocket-sized camera.
I've owned this camera for three-months and waited until now to write a critique for the reason that it was a gift and I certainly wanted to like this camera. But the significantly more I've made use of it the less I like it. To be fair, it can take a descent image below optimal conditions if you are cautious, but so can a 1968 Kodak Brownie in the correct hands. I definitely expected even more from Nikon and contemporary electronic technology.
Let me give you a little additional background... I'm 63 years old and I've been taking pictures given that I was 8 years old. Final winter I suffered a stroke which affected the coordination in my left hand and I discovered it difficuly to operate my Nikon D50 SLR. My wife, trying to be nice to me purchased an S6100 for my birthday simply because she assumed that a point-and-shoot would be simpler and less frustrating for me to use than my D50 SLR. I was excited to get it and try it out. The Nikon S6100 was smaller, lighter and less difficult to carry. As far as getting simpler to use,
it is NOT! A person would expect an automatic point-and-shoot camera to be just that, point it, press the shutter release and get a fair image most of the time. That is one thing this camera cannot do with any regularity. A pox on Nikons property for the damn touch screen controls! Why have a touch screen shutter release function that duplicates the function of the shutter release button? Though you try to hold the camera with your appropriate hand you are pretty much forced to touch the screen when trying to frame the image and push the "real button". This a lot more frequently than not activates the shutter resulting in a image of the ground, your pant leg, or shoe. Then while you wait for the exceedingly slow electronics to shop that image on the memory card, you miss numerous oportunities to attempt for a very good shot. Would that this was the only issue with the touch screen. Nikon created this cameras controls so the ONLY way to control several camera functions is through a menu method controlled applying the touch screen. If that had been not poor adequate the screen itself is not sensitive sufficient to respond nicely to a finger touch unless you use a lengthy finger nail or the small stylus hung on the wrist strap. This virtually insures that you cannot make any sort of speedy selection modifications although you try to shoot. You may possibly wonder if that screen does something else. Yes, it shows a fairly bright image to use as a viewfinder or to evaluation photographs of your shoes taken by mistake. Of course it is constantly smugged and dirty since you have to be touching it all the time.
How about the overall function? The S6100 is as functional as most of it really is competitors in the crowded point-and-shoot field. It is a snapshot camera at ideal loaded with troublesome to control functions and totally unecessary post shooting editing functions that are much greater completed on your computer system immediately after you download the pictures. I expected superior from Nikon and I definitely thought that a 16 megapixel sensor would capture superior superior shots. Once more I was disappointed. My 6 megapixel D50 captures better images and it really is more than 5-years old. In anything other than optimal light, the automatic functions of the S6100 bump up the ISO a handful of clicks and when that's happened the image easily gets grainy without having gaining really good exposure. Once more I certain expected better from the newer class of sensors and software. The S6100 can also take Quicktime films with a single press of the movie button on the back. This would be a nice function if the movie button were not smaller placed straight beneath the appropriate side thumb grip, virtually ensuring that you will take some short motion pictures you didn't want, once more often of the ground, your shoe, or the sky.
Oh, and then there is battery life. Not too good. I can get perhaps 200 shots and a short film before the "battery exhausted" message pops up on the screen, and then you are completed since the only way to recharge it is to plug the entire camera into the charger or a computer USB port, you will be out of luck in the field unless you invest in a second battery, maintain it charged and in your pocket whilst you'r out shooting.
Do you assume I've been be too unfavorable about the S6100?
Right here are the really good things about it:
1. It really is smaller, light, and fits easily in a shirt pocket or purse
two. The zoom lens is Nikon, and they do make the finest optics and the wide to full zoom is all you will almost certainly ever need to have.
three. When you manage to get a snap shot it really is generally of sufficient superior, at least for your family members album.
MY RECOMMEDATIONS:
If you want a point-and shoot Nikon, check out the S8100 or S9100, both substantially superior cameras at only a slightly higher value.
If you want terrific photos and care about control of your camera functions get a Digital SLR and master how to use it.
If you want a touch screen get a intelligent phone. Most of those will take photographs and movies too, and could possibly be simpler to use than this camera, plus when you get frustrated with the smugged up touch screen, at least you can use it to call someone who cares.
