Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.
Nikon's Coolpix S6100 Digital Camera (Silver) has what you're looking for in a camera, gloriously presented in a slick little package barely 1" thick, and weighing in at 6.2 oz (175 g). You have a major 16MP CCD sensor for great image quality, plus a sharp 7x wide-angle Nikkor 28-196mm (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.
There's a lot more to the S6100, though--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 Best Shot Selector mode that quickly and automatically takes 10 shots in low light, and selects the sharpest image.
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. A full set of in-camera editing tools let you refine, retouch and resize photos--without a computer! There are 20 scene modes, including Pet Portrait, Night Landscape, Sports, Party/Indoor, Sunset, and lots more. The S6100 is an ideal companion--easy to get along with and always reliable.

At 16MP with great color rendition this camera can take excellent pictures. The touch-screen interface design beats the old approach of wheels and buttons hands down.
But, there are some nasty disappointments that sometimes make it unusable in some situations - and for no good reason.
1. The half press causes the camera to focus nicely, then with the full press the camera changes the focus and produces an out-of-focus picture; over and over again! Can you deal with frustration?
2. The subject is adequately lighted, the live view is good, but the background is black cloth. Result: the subject is blown and the background is gray. Yes, exposure comp should help, but why can't the camera record what the live view is showing me?
Net result: when the camera gets it right it's great. But, just because the live view, or the view with a half-press looks good is no real indication that the camera will get it right. BEWARE.
3. Portrait scene mode seems to work well with flash, but without flash can lead to frustration (what does it think it should focus on? it finds the faces and then goes out of focus in the saved image!)

I purchased this camera for personal use, and find the picture quality to be great. I am still trying to navigate the many features. I just wish the manuel was easier to follow. I am having a problem with night photography, and have been unable to figure out from the instructions, what I may be doing wrong.

i gave this camera to a friend cause his old coolpix had seen better days. the features on this S6100 are too many to list without this turning into a novel, but....if you're looking for a really neat package that does just about everything , this is it. 16mp.!!! 28-196 zoom. vibration reduction, 3" LCD that's really clear, video, ISO-3200 pretty good in low light, in camera editing and macro down to 1.2" then this is it.

This camera is a lightweight sophisticated pocket camera which was exactly what I was looking for. Everything about it is straghtforward and simple, yet the photos taken are comparable to those from my Digital SLR minus the RAW option of course. But for casual shooting, the 16MP images are super.

I purchased this camera and I have to say it is by far the best camera I have ever had. The quality of each picture is amazing, no matter what I am shooting. I can take a perfect picture of my daughter (3yrs) running around and it soesn't come out blury at all. I can take pictures when a room is dark and you cant even tell. It has all the features I was looking for like the color option, and panoramic assist. I use this product constantly now and the only thing was upset about is not getting one sooner. I also would recommend buying it from [@][...] I will be a repeat customer.

Comments about Nikon Coolpix S6100 Digital Camera (Silver):
We were looking for a decent point and shoot to complememnt our dSLR, mainly for those instances where the dSLR is too big or a hassle to carry around. The S6100 is small enough for a pocket (its not a mini-compact though), yet still takes good photos by, well... pointing and shooting! Clearly the images are not as bright or crisp as a dSLR, but for social stuff and cool little options, the camera is ideal. The issue of the touch screen raised in other reviews is somewhat warranted. Obviously the sensitivity of the screen is nothing like an iPhone or iPad, but other than the areas in the extreme corners, everything works fine with the finger, otherwise the stylus works on the rest anyway. Face recognition and tracking functions are quite good, zoom is very good for the price. No software necessary for photo download but you get the Nikon NX2 software free with the camera to edit and store your photos anyway.
