Very good macro capabilities; 18X-optical-zoom lens; Large array of useful and creative scene modes; In-camera editing features improve low-light shots; Superior image quality; Extremely easy to use; Excellent performance for the price; Light and slim for such a long-zoom camera
No Raw shooting mode; No manual controls
So far in 2011, the Nikon Coolpix S9100 is our top pick as a fully automated pocket megazoom camera for casual users who couldn't care less about manual controls but still want to take good-looking and creative photos. The S9100 also has the image quality...
Huge optical zoom range from a camera that will still fit in the pocket, Full HD video with stereo sound and HDMI output, good build quality, easy to use, built-in effects filters are fun
Visible pixel fringing between areas of high contrast and corner softening at maximum wide angle - but neither are uncommon, no mains charger
One of the newest and best travel zooms on the market today, the S9100 marries a near best-in-class focal range and sophisticated exterior with user friendly operation and fun features such as digital effects and Easy panorama mode for those who do occ...
Responsive (startup, autofocus, burst mode), Versatile 18x wideangle superzoom lens (good macro mode), Nice, sharp LCD screen, 1080 HD video mode with separate record button
Lens could be better, Picture quality above 800 ISO, Optical stabilisation a little disappointing, No automatic image rotation
The Nikon S9100 is a versatile camera with a powerful zoom, a macro mode and a 1080 HD video mode. It fits easily into a pocket or bag and is pleasant to use. Its lens and picture quality are no match for the Sony HX9V but the S9100 has the advantage o...
Nikon's COOLPIX S9100 is well built and it has a massive 18x zoom lens. It can take clear and vibrant pictures, but because it lacks manual controls it can sometimes struggle in challenging lighting conditions. Overall, though, it's not a bad camera a...
The Nikon Coolpix S9100 has fast shooting performance, a wide, long lens in a pocketable body, and several useful and fun shooting modes
The Coolpix S9100's photo and video quality is soft, particularly at high ISOs and in low-light conditions. It also lacks auto picture rotation
The Nikon Coolpix S9100 is a solid compact camera that's easy to use, fast and good in low light. But if you want the extra reach its 18x zoom provides, be prepared to stretch your budget -- if not your pocket -- accordingly....
Abstract: The Nikon Coolpix S9100 ($329) is a compact camera that packs a whopping 18X zoom into a remarkably small package. Other features include a 12.1 Megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor, optical image stabilization, a high res LCD, Full HD video recordi...
18x Nikkor optical zoom, 1080p30 HD video, Good range of fast burst modes, Easy panorama mode.
No GPS, Lacks manual exposure control, Effects filters are a bit tired, No stabilisation for movies.
Nikon COOLPIX S9100 verdict The Nikon COOLPIX S9100 is a compact super-zoom with an impressive 18x optical zoom range. In that respect it's well out in front of the competition, with the Panasonic Lumix TZ20 / ZS10 and Sony Cyber-shot HX9V offering ...
