Nikon COOLPIX S640 Pro Reviews

expertreviews‘s review Edit

Impressively fast to switch on and focus but not so nippy from then on. Otherwise, it’s an unremarkable, slightly overpriced camera.

A good wide angle lens, adequate megapixels, and good zoom combine to make the Coolpix S640 a camera that does a good job across the board. It’s a camera that you can use indoors or outdoors and can take from birthday party to soccer game and be sure of always producing good solid photographs.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

Priced at around £199, the Nikon CoolPix S640's picture quality is just average, as chromatic aberration and digital noise really got the better of our images; its controls need work and it's slow to show images on its screen. The redeeming features, such as the smile detector, hardly make up for the fact that it can be a frustrating camera to use overall. At the same price, you can get the Canon IXUS 120 IS, which produces much better image quality and even has HD video recording, unlike the S640.

Pocket-lint‘s review Edit

The Nikon Coolpix S640 is everything the recently tested S570 is not, particularly in terms of speed. However, its price may raise some eyebrows. But when you bear in mind the clever automated features and technology that are ensconced within the S640’s svelte frame, and then perhaps the price is a little more understandable.

Steve's Digicams‘s review Edit

The Nikon CoolPix S640 is a highly versatile ultra-compact with surprising performance. Image quality lacks a little due to edge softness and slightly dull colors.

PhotographyBLOG‘s review Edit

The Nikon Coolpix S640 is one of the fastest compact cameras currently on the market, quickly starting up and finding focus in good light and bad. An inexplicable 5 second delay after the S640 is powered on and a rather average feature set detract from an otherwise accomplished camera.

www.trustedreviews.com‘s review Edit

Although it doesn't live up to Nikon's extravagent marketing claims, the CoolPix S640 is still a very competent camera. Build quality is good, it handles well, performs briskly and takes a decent picture in a wide range of situations; low light performance is especially good. It's not quite a bargain, but it is a nice little camera.

DigitalCameraReview‘s review Edit

Compact cameras have always been popular (at least in part) because they're unobtrusive and not intimidating to subjects. The inconspicuous little Nikon Coolpix S640 should fit right in - it does a remarkably good job across the board and it's tough enough to go just about anywhere.

The Nikon Coolpix S640 may not be a standout camera, but it's no slouch either...
