  • Nikon has done a good job in making the Coolpix S630 a true point and shoot camera. At most, you might need to select one of the 16 scene modes to get the best image, but on full auto the camera will even do this for you. The slightly larger display an...

  • Fast 7x optical zoom lens. Solid wide-angle image quality. Comfortable, ergonomic design. Negligible shutter lag. Low noise at high ISOs (up to ISO 800).
  • Images are soft and color fringing occurs when zoomed in. Sluggish face detection. Underwhelming user interface.
  • The Nikon Coolpix S630 is a good choice for minimalists who want a compact camera with a powerful optical zoom, but photographers looking for the basics may be disappointed by the lacking feature set....

  • The Nikon Coolpix S630 is an eminently respectable point-and-shoot camera. While not heavy on controls, its still image quality was excellent, with low noise, above average color accuracy, and minimal lens distortion. Where the camera faltered was i...

  • Great Looks/Build, Solid consumer-driven features, Easy-to-use interface, Great Color reproduction/AWB
  • ISO performance inadequate, Lacks manual features
  • Overall, the Nikon S630 forms a solid backbone of features for the pure consumer who is quality and style conscious, but offers nothing for those who wish to dabble with manual modes to enter the realm of amateur photography. If youre looking for soli...

  • Hit or miss image performance. Light on advanced features. Downgraded imaging hardware. ...
  • Nikons flagship style cam is a bit of a divergence from last years Coolpix S710, one in which advanced shooters will not dig. The Nikon Coolpix S630 received a significant sensor and features downgrade, with only a 7x optical zoom in return. For 20...

  • Abstract:  One of the first things users will notice with the 12 mega pixel Coolpix S630 is what Nikon call its ‘Sure Grip body design’ which manifests as an interesting sweeping curve along the back of its body that, while subtle to the eye, is quite pr...

  • On paper, the Nikon Coolpix S630 sounds like an impressive camera. It offers a 7X zoom lens in a stylish, compact body that would normally house a 3X or 4X lens. It has all the required point-and-shoot features, including auto scene selection, face/smi...

  • 7x optical zoom; intuitive scroll wheel operation; decent performance.
  • Lacks wide-angle lens and HD video-recording function; average image quality.
  • The Coolpix S630s strongest selling point would be its 7x optical zoom and decent performance. Other than that, we found its features to be pretty typical of average point-and-shoots.
