          Used for a week or so. Mostly without flash inside. But also night shots outside on the streets, on the night setting. Good colours and hardly any delay compared to other older digital cameras I've used. Macro seems good. Wide angle is nice.

              Comments about Nikon CoolPix S6000 Digital Camera (Black):

              I use this camera mostly for pics of family & friends and also some sightseeing & vacation pics.
              This is my 3rd Coolpix camera and it is the easiest yet to understand and take great pics with.
              Only negatives are the placement of the zoom control and the battery/SD card slot door doesn't close very securely. I can't understand why Nikon cheapened this important component of the camera.
              Once again it was a pleasure doing business with B & H Photo.
