 Nikon CoolPix S230 Camera Review

The CoolPix S230 is a new 10-megapixel ultra-compact with a 3x zoom lens, and that touch-screen monitor has a large 3-inch 230k screen. The camera has a strong and stylish all-metal body, and the fit and finish are up to Nikon's usual high standard. It is available in black, purple, blue, or tcrimson red. Currently selling for around £190 it is a rather expensive for what is essentially a pretty basic 3x zoom compact, but the touch-screen does add a number of fun and useful features that go at least part of the way toward justifying the price.


The camera has a bare minimum of external controls, consisting only of the on/off button, the shutter button with the zoom control as a rotary bezel around it, and two small buttons on the back for playback and shooting mode, including scene mode and movie mode. This leaves plenty of room to hold the camera, and there is a small but just-about functional thumb grip on the back.
