Nikon Coolpix S600

Performance

Clocking a mere 0.7 second in our Lab tests, the S600 is definitely a camera with one of the fastest startup times we've tested. In fact, we were taken aback by the sheer speed the first time we powered it up. This is great because there have been countless times we missed a particular moment or great picture opportunity just because the camera was slow to start up.

The shutter lag measured a mere 0.2 second, which is a great complement to the fast startup time.

Flash output was generally well-balanced, with the camera adjusting the exposure for the background as well so night portraits look more vibrant.

The Lithium-ion battery is still going strong even after we took about 200 shots with the flash off. One gripe we have regarding the battery is the lack of display showing how much power is there left.
