Nikon's Coolpix S4100 Digital Camera (Red) has everything you need in a compact camera, all beautifully contained in a stylish little pocketable package less than 1" thick, and weighing in at 4.7 oz (131 g). Start with a serious 14MP CCD sensor for great image quality, add a sharp 5x wide-angle Nikkor 26-130mm (equivalent in 35mm format) lens and a brilliant 3" LCD touch screen monitor with 460K-dot resolution--you can focus by just touching a point on the screen.

The S4100 isn't just another pretty face, either--it's got one-touch 720p HD video, 4-way VR image stabilization to banish blurry pictures forever, sensitivity up to 3200 ISO that lets you keep shooting even when it gets dark, Subject Tracking Autofocus that locks onto a moving subject to keep it in focus at all times, and a Macro mode that produces fantastic pictures by focusing as close as 4" from the lens.

The Smart Portrait System makes every person you photograph look good, by automatically capturing a smile, warning you when someone blinks in a picture, automatically correcting red-eye and smoothing out wrinkles and blemishes on faces. There are 20 scene modes, including Pet Portrait, Night Landscape, Sports, Party/Indoor, Sunset, and lots more.  This is a camera that's easy to live with, and will always treat you right.

Or, you can opt for playback on your TV or computer.
First It Turns Heads … Then It Shoots Their Pictures.

Hassle-Free Nikon Technology Produces Great Shots Every Time
Imagine an affordable, compact camera that's also smart enough to automatically correct for camera shake, take a series of shots and save only the sharpest ones, or intuitively adjust shutter speed when you're focused on moving objects. The remarkable COOLPIX S4100 does all that and much more. It's equipped with a four-way Electronic VR Image Stabilization system that minimizes blurred images. Its Motion Detection identifies moving objects and adjusts both shutter speed and ISO to create optimal settings to achieve the best picture.With the COOLPIX S4100, Nikon has thought of everything. When you're shooting in low-light, you're sure to get optimum results with high ISO speeds up to 3200. For both still images and movies that are sharp and clear, count on EXPEED C2 to heighten fine detail and image quality-and do it all with exceptional processing speed.

      Used 2 of these for work, it's ok, the flash is slow, until the two-cent battery door breaks and then it's $$$ down the drain. No way to fix it. Both cameras broke at the same place. Avoid this product. Lasts about 2 months , then breaks.

      For me, the camera is 'intuitive'. Previous cameras were too sofisticated, too many options that spoils the pleasure more then it helps ... I wanted something 'hands-on' and easy to manipulate, and this is exactly what i was looking for.

                I upgraded from my old Nikon Coolpiz S550 to this camera and was surprised at how easy the transition was. The scenes, auto modes, and settings between the cameras are formatted the same, making everything very familiar. With such a large touch screen and quick access menus, camera settings are quick and easy to adjust. Its small profile and flashy color also adds to the great aesthetic design. Easy to carry, easy to use. Great quality photos.

                i have the camera for only two weeks so i'm still cheacking it out. a good camera, the photos come out good and clear on the day and night. the touch screen is very comfortable to use.
                my only problem with it is that it doesn't show the status of the battery and the camera can turn off in a second without a warning.
