Remember the Essentials
Sufficient memory is not included.
Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.
At just 0.8" thin, the Nikon Coolpix S570 Digital Camera easily slips into your pocket or handbag. The stylish, metal camera body houses a brilliant 12.0 megapixel sensor, Nikkor 5x optical zoom lens, and Nikon's latest Smart Portrait System. Advanced Face-Priority Technology focuses and tracks up to 12 individual faces in your frame. Newly developed Skin Softening offers three levels of in-camera smoothing while Smile Timer, Blink Proof, Blink Warning, and Red Eye Fix functions combine to keep all of your subjects looking their best.
Smart Auto Selector makes taking great pictures as easy as point and shoot. By analyzing your subject and environmental setting, the S570 automatically selects one of six programmed scene modes to ensure the highest possible image quality. 4-way Image Stabilization combines high ISO sensitivity, electronic Vibration Reduction, Motion Detection, and Best Shot Selector Technology to bring you crisp, perfectly focused photos - even under low lighting conditions. Easy to carry and simple to use, the Nikon Coolpix S570 is the perfect ultra compact to take with you everywhere.
- High Resolution Imaging
- 12.0 megapixels provides ample resolution for stunning prints up to 16 x 20".
- Ultra Thin and Compact
- Slim and stylish, the metal body design of the Coolpix S570 is less than 1" thin. Slip it in your shirt pocket or purse. This is the camera that you can and will take everywhere.
- 5x Nikkor Zoom Lens
- This advanced optic provides brilliant coverage for all of your subjects. From sweeping landscapes to sports action photography, all of your pictures are captured with stellar sharpness and life-like color.
- Bright, 2.7" LCD
- Featuring specialized anti-glare coatings, this 2.7" LCD makes composing and reviewing photos and video an absolute pleasure.
- Scene Auto Selector
- Nikon's Scene Auto Selector eliminates the need to manually select a scene mode to match the shot, making it faster and easier to capture the moment. The Coolpix S570 uses this intelligent function to analyze the subject and surrounding setting and then automatically selects the most appropriate of the following six scene modes to achieve optimal results: Portrait, Landscape, Night Portrait, Night Landscape, Close-up, or Backlight.
- Smart Portrait System
- Nikon's newly developed Smart Portrait System provides a host of tools to ensure the highest quality portraits possible. Advanced Face-Priority Technology keeps track of up to 12 faces while Smile Timer instantly captures the moment when your subject smiles. The Blink Proof function shoots two pictures and automatically saves the one in which the subject's eyes remain open. When activated, Blink Warning alerts you that the subject may have blinked and prompts you to retake the photo. New Skin Softening and Red Eye Fix offer powerful image retouching options in-camera while Nikon Active D-lighting rescues dark or backlit images by improving brightness and detail where needed.
- 4-way Image Stabilization
- Nikon's electronic VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization compensates for the effects of camera shake. Motion Detection automatically controls shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for subject movement as well as camera shake. ISO 3200 capability at any image size up to its maximum of 4000 x 3000 pixels allows faster shutter speeds when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects. Nikon's original BSS (Best Shot Selector) function automatically shoots a series of sequential frames and saves the one with the sharpest focus.
- Quick Retouch
- Quick Retouch adds professional polish to your photos by automatically creating a retouched copy with the best balance of contrast and saturation.

I normally shoot macros and wildlife with a D700 and long lenses. I got the S570 so that I can grab wider shots without having to stop to change lenses. Used for that purpose, it's a great little cam!
At 28mm it's surprisingly sharp across the frame, also surprisingly with no barrel distortion. Contrast is good, and at ISO 100 there's no discernible noise.
Unsurprisingly, zoomed to 140mm (and f/6.6!) in moderate light, sharpness declines and noise goes up, both markedly. But for a compact, image quality is still reasonably good. A minor alert to those who use the "VR" on this cam: if you have it on, it will override any ISO limitation you might set elsewhere in the menu.
The very simple menu is Nikon-style intuitive, and the tiny size of the cam means it goes wherever I go. Focus is relatively quick and shutter lag is negligible for my purposes.
The Coolpix S570 excels at what I got it for, and its low price makes it an incredible value.

Comments about Nikon CoolPix S570 Digital Camera (Black):
I bought this camera for taking pictures of friends and family as well as pictures of my hobbies. It does a fantastic job! Very easy to
use and it takes quality pictures too. The macro
mode works great for close ups of flowers and getting intimate detail on some of my projects
that I post online. I honestly can't think of anything I don't like about this awesome little camera. The transaction went real smooth too.
If you are looking for a quality little point &
shoot digital camera, then you can't go wrong
with the Nikon S570.

Comments about Nikon CoolPix S570 Digital Camera (Black):
We are an audio electronics manufacturer and we have several of these Coolpix cameras for our Sales staff and tech support people. Lens good, 12 mg gives us the clarity we require, easy to travel with and comes with everything one would need. Very good images for record keeping, print and also blow up very well if need be. Nikon just keeps getting it right. I also have a D70 and a D90 for personal use.

Comments about Nikon CoolPix S570 Digital Camera (Black):
Nice size, easy to use (I've had multiple coolpix, so I'm used to the settings). My main complaint is that it takes a few seconds after you take a picture on high MP before its ready for another picture- you can lower the MP and it is quicker, but a bit annoying. I know this can be fixed if get a much bigger/more expensive camera

Comments about Nikon CoolPix S570 Digital Camera (Black):
I purchased this camera so that I would be able to have a camera with me all the time be likely to take more pictures, under the theory that in order to improve my photography I should be taking more pictures.
Because of the size, and form factor (about the size of a deck of cards) of the camera I am taking many more pictures than I have in the past. I can carry it quite easily, it fits into my pants pocket. It starts up quickly and goes from off to ready to shoot in just a few seconds.
The image quality is excellent, and the battery lasts for about a week while taking about 20 -30 pictures per day.
The only real negative is that that the shutter speed cannot be set manually.
Overall, great camera.

Comments about Nikon CoolPix S570 Digital Camera (Black):
Very nice camera. I also own a Canon SX200is which I like, but the Canon is a little large to carry when I ride my motorcycle. The CoolPix S570 is smaller yet provides excellent features and quality. The exterior finish is beautiful and the 2.7" LCD is large enough. Because it is 2.7" for this size camera the controls on the back panel are perfect and very easy to use. Owners Manual is well written. Love the Scene selection mode and Smart Portrait System. 5x optical zoom is enough for this small point and shoot. Movies also great. [...] Bought extra Nikon battery and 4GB ScanDisk Ultra SDHC card at the same time.
