Slim, compact and stylish, this duo is perhaps the most elegant of the new S-Series. The S230 features a combination of an advanced 3.0 inch touch-screen with basic buttons, so taking photographs is great fun and very easy.
It also incorporates an array of advanced functions such as the new Blink Proof, Quick Retouch, Scene Auto Selector and Scene Mode. Blink Proof ensures you won’t take pictures of anyone with their eyes closed. Quick Retouch allows you to retouch images after they’ve been taken using advanced technologies from Nikon’s award winning D-SLRs.
Sixteen Scene modes in the S220 allow you to choose the perfect camera settings for almost any shooting situation. In addition to 10 effective megapixels and a NIKKOR 3x zoom lens, these models offer Electronic Vibration Reduction, a high sensitivity range up to ISO 2000 and Motion Detection to make picture-taking easy in any situation.
At just 18mm, the Nikon Coolpix S220 is thin and lightweight (approx. 100 g) and has a 2.5-inch LCD monitor for reviewing your pictures. Both cameras have stylish metallic bodies that will fit any small bag and come in a range of fashionable colours varying from Soft Silver, Warm Silver, Aqua Green, Gloss Red, Night Blue, Cobalt Blue, Magenta and Purple to Black.

Very lousy camera, I can not get a good photos. After trying so many setting (even ISO is set to 80), the photo quality if extremely bad (not sharp and grainy because of noise). Don’t ever think of buying it.

I also purchased this camera a week ago. The picture quality was so poor (grainy/blurred) that i took it back to the place of purchase and swapped it for a Canon. Much happier!
I would not recommend this camera. Awful!

This camera works fine for me. You do need to adjust the settings to get good photos, but it’s especially good at outdoor photos and it takes decent indoor ones. It’s not the best, but it sure isn’t the worst. I do enjoy using it but still plan on getting an Olympus Tough 8000 for those outdoor shots and then a nice DSLR after that. Some of the photos I’ve taken are on my Deviant Art site and I used the Nikon for all except one, the cloud picture.
