Nikon's COOLPIX S8200 Digital Camera puts ease-of-use and a remarkable 16.1Mp CMOS sensor at your fingertips. This marriage of simplicity and an impressive number of pixels gives you multiple options when it comes to documenting the moments of your life. From carrying the camera everywhere you go, so you're ready when the moment strikes, to capturing incredibly detailed images that are ready to be turned into mural-sized works of art, the S8200 gives you the best of both worlds.

The camera also boasts a 14x Optical Zoom-NIKKOR ED glass lens with a 25-350mm (35mm equivalent) focal range. That means you can shoot everything from close-up groups to far-off vistas, and everything in-between. The 4-Way Image Stabilization system works to eliminate camera shake for clear images with optical VR, Motion Detection, Best Shot Selector, and High ISO options. In addition, the 3.0" LCD monitor with Nikon's Clear Color display and anti-reflective coating makes for hassle-free composition and review of all your images.

Along with capturing high-res photos the S8200 also records 1080p high definition video with stereo sound. Upon playback on the big screen (AKA: your HDTV), your memories will both look and sound great. While shooting, the camera gives you the option of using a one touch record button for starting and stopping video capture, allowing you to catch the moment, instead of missing it because you're navigating through the menu.

While the S8200 might be considered a point-and-shoot it definitely offers you a number of options for putting your own mark on things. In-camera effects let you add special masks or filters to your images to evoke a certain look or feel. Smile timer automatically captures a smile, continuous shooting lets you capture up to 5 shots in a second, and Pre-Shooting enables recording of images just before the shutter is released. These, along with the other numerous shooting modes, guarantee a user-friendly yet creative way to capture the world around you.

Go From Ordinary to Extraordinary
Catch those summer evening shots around the bonfire, or freeze the action of the winning goal. Fast, responsive and boasting an incredible 14x optical Zoom-NIKKOR ED glass lens, the Nikon COOLPIX S8200 will help you capture images you may previously have missed. Its 16.1Mp CMOS sensor crisply renders your view of the world-whether low light, far off fast action or sweeping panoramas. Capture sharp, clear photos and Full HD (1080p) movies using Nikon's incredible optics. Spice up stills and movies with special effects, and view everything on a 3-inch, ultra-high resolution (921,000 dot) display
See What's Possible
If your old camera never quite captured the moment, the S8200 will! It boasts a high-resolution, 16.1Mp CMOS sensor so you get superb image quality-even in low light. With fast, versatile, continuous shooting modes, you can capture those spontaneous moments shot after shot. Then show family and friends your movies and still creations on the 3" ultra-high resolution (921,000 dot) display. Stylish and compact, the S8200 tucks into a pocket but packs brilliant performance and advanced features
From Macro to Mountains: 14x Optical Zoom-NIKKOR ED Glass Lens
Despite a slim profile of approximately 1.3 inches, the S8200 delivers amazing versatility with an incredible 14x zoom (25mm to 350mm equivalent). Imagine creating macro images of a bumblebee in a spring flower, then zooming out to frame a mountain range for a panorama. With the S8200, you can go from wide-angle to telephoto to macro/close-up views in an instant, preserving photos or movies of most everything from grandstand crowds to a stage performer's smile
Put Your Memories in Motion: 1080p HD Movies with Stereo Sound
A single photo may not always be enough to recreate the moment; sometimes memories are best shared with a movie. Portable and ready when important things happen, the COOLPIX S8200 lets you create stunning Full HD (1080p) movies with stereo sound at the touch of a button. You'll love its ability to zoom in and out at will-while keeping subjects in focus. Stylize your story with one of various special effects or by recording in 15, 60 or 120 fps for fast/motion effects. Life doesn't stand still; neither should your memories
Automated Versatility: Easy Panorama, Night Modes, HDR & More!
Maybe you've wanted to create panoramic photos but thought they were too difficult. Maybe you've tried shooting photos at night but they never turn out. The S8200 takes the guesswork out of shots like these and more with handy Scene Modes at the ready. For sweeping panoramas, simply pan the camera and let it detect and automatically combine images to build a gorgeous vista. Going out at night? The S8200 takes great low-light photos. You can even create amazing HDR shots in-camera. The S8200 does the work
Discover Your Inner Artist: In-Camera Effects For Unique Results
Let the artist in you go from ordinary to extraordinary! With a variety of in-camera effects, such as Low Key, High Key, Hard Monochrome, Nostalgia Sepia or Selective Color, your world takes on a new dimension. The S8200 provides you the tools to fashion photos and movies with more than just your great eye-just select an effect and go! For your still photography, bring out your creative side with a fisheye, miniature or even an artistic look. Finally, you can make the kinds of photos and movies you've always wanted to make
Flattering Portraits Every Time
Nikon's Smart Portrait System includes Smile Timer, which automatically recognizes when a subject is smiling and releases the shutter, Face-Priority AF, which finds and focuses on up to 12 faces, Blink Warning, Red-Eye Fix, Skin Softening and more
Steady Even When You're Not
The S8200's four advanced Vibration Reduction (VR) image stabilization functions automatically reduce the streaky images associated with shaky cameras
High-Speed Continuous Shooting
You'll never miss a shot with the S8200 because it starts right up, has a quick autofocus and shoots five shots in approximately one second at full resolution
Strength in Numbers
You'll always get a great shot with Nikon's Best Shot Selector. Press the shutter once, and the S8200 takes up to ten shots and then selects and saves only the sharpest image

I was excited to receive this camera. The darned pop-up flash is in the exact spot where I hold the camera with my left hand. Tried to modify how I hold the camera, but still had the flash pop up and hit my fingers. In frustration, I returned the camera the next day.

Comments about Nikon COOLPIX S8200 Digital Camera (Black):

I was going on a business trip to Asia, but didn't want to carry my big DSLR along with everything else I needed. Read some great stuff about the Nikon Coolpix S8200 and I am please to say that I agree. Photos look great and the video recording is also quite awesome. I think I found the camera that will always be by my side!

        Comments about Nikon COOLPIX S8200 Digital Camera (Black):

        I own a Nikon D40 and D300. I am an amateur photographer and specialize in art photography. I recently had to travel and was required to pack VERY light (as in a backpack only). I purchased this camera after doing a good bit of research. The camera got excellent reviews, but after using DSLR technology for several years, I did not have high hopes. Boy was I wrong! This camera did it all - action, stills, portrait. It is incredible in low light! It even has some really fun special effects. I now take this camera with me everywhere. It is small and light and I can throw it in my handbag. While I won't give up my DSRL cameras, this point and shoot will become part of my photo equipment for sure! I HIGHLY recommend the Coolpix S8200!

          Comments about Nikon COOLPIX S8200 Digital Camera (Black):

          We bought this camera for our honeymoon (and future family photos =)). We wanted something compact with good zoom and this was just that. We also were looking for something with a fast "picture taking speed." My previous camera would take pictures a second or two after I pressed the shutter button. This camera did not have that problem. The screen is bright and clear and did not scratch easily, so far. Battery life was good also: first cycle lasted several days with moderate use.

          This camera is a perfect size for carrying but Nikon has managed to cram a stack of USEFUL features into the neat package. The menus are easy to access and understand, the choices are probably more than most casual users need and the picture quality is astonishing. The video is literally one-touch for start and finish and, again, the quality is great. I love this camera.

              I use Nikon 300 etc. and needed a family camera that takes good pictures and is easy for all to use. This little camera was put through its paces. Clean, clear pictures. Setup is very easy. Best ponit and shoot I have used recently. Quick focus and shutter response. Low light is good and flash exposures are spot on. Light weight, fits in shirt pocket, takes great pictures, what more does one want? Oh, video is just as good as stills.

              The other posts to this site about pro's and cons are correct like the goofy flash position and the having to turn the camera off to have it go down are simply differences anyone can get used to. Therefore, I like this camera but I would like to note that not having a view finder is a huge detriment when shooting outside. Not being able to see the screen when in the sunlight is difficult to see framing, zooming and colors. Indoors or when you can see the screen, this camera takes great pictures and is very easy to use. Awesome value and compact.

              Bought this camera for our upcoming trip to Rivera-Cancun Mexico. We have been testing the camera on family gatherings.The Smile detection timer setting can be fun to use by placing the camera where people will be and letting the camera take random photos automatically.Con- There are 2 cons I have with this camera is the Flash. 1.If you use 2 hands to take the shot your left index finger will most likely stop it from popping up.2. Once flash is up you can not manualy close the flash. You will need to power down the camera to recess the flash.

                Most pictures come out great, zoom is strong, video is excellent. Camera a bit on the heavy side. Some more manual options would be welcome. Flash light inconvenient.

                Will use this camera on a Med cruise this coming summer. I like that it also does video in 1080p. The mic on the camera is my least favorite thing. Also the flash is in a weird spot. You have to remember were it is when shooting.

                I was looking for a long zoom with HD video and this fits the bill. Great low light pictures and many other apps. Very fast shooting and flash. This replaces my Sony DHC-H50 that l love. I hope I will not miss the viewfinder too much, will see. Taking this to Italy, Greece and Turkey this summer.

                  Comments about Nikon COOLPIX S8200 Digital Camera (Black):

                  I shot some pictures at "Thunder on the Bay" in Sarasota, Florida with my new Coolpix S8200. The camera performed very well in all light conditions. The pop up flash took a few shots to get my fingers in the right place and a little getting used to power off the camera in order for it to retract. This will not be a big deal. The battery charging only in the camera is not a problem for me as it charges in less than four hours. I was looking for a camera without GPS and I think I found just the perfect camera for me.

                      Ipurchased this camera to have as one to carry with me all the time. It's small enough to be put in a pocket and yet it has many excellant features. Really like the length of the zoom and the "panaroma" feature. One dislike is the way Nikon designed the flash to pop up right where the natural place is to hold the camera with your left hand. It also has to have the camera completly shut off in order for the flash to close. Also the battery has to charged in the body, no external charging method. Will certainly take some getting used to.All in all a great little camera.
