Excellent Camera, few pitfalls to watch out for.,
I’ve had this camera for about two weeks now and so far its been great to use.
The 8x zoom is great, I used to have a sony p10 that I upgraded from that was only 3x, this makes a huge difference getting those “up close and personal” shots from a distance.
The image quality is…incredible. I’ll admit I’ve not used anything over an 8MP camera but I can’t imagine other 14MP camera’s could be much better. The level of detail in the pictures is incredible.
That being said other reviews have taken issue with the low light capability and I have to agree with them….sorta. The iA (intelligent auto) feature doesn’t seem to do a great job on its own in low lighting conditions. However if you select one of the scene modes and use a tripod, I’ve found the camera comes out with an acceptable quality even in low light.
Building on that, the iA feature fo the camera does an excellent job most of the time picking out the best settings (fstop/iso/shutter speed), its worlds better then anything in the point and shoot category that I’ve used before. The only spot where I’ve had to tell it what scene setting to use (in daylight anyway) is the sports mode. It’s fast enough to capture my ceiling fan blades with little blur , excellent for a point and shoot.
The SDXC slot future proofs the camera and the speed of the cards allows for decent burst mode shooting capability. The battery seems to hold a decent charge and the lcd is huge so you can easily see what your shooting.
Some people have dinged the camera since it doesn’t have a viewfinder but seeing as how there are no real manual controls on this camera (other then iso/exposure) I don’t see too many serious professionals who need a viewfinder buying this camera as anything other then a small easy to carry point and shoot.
Several years ago I would have laughed if you would have said that you could get an 8x zoom, 14MP, huge LCD at this price point and build quality….I’m not laughing any more.
All in all, excellent camera and certainly recommended (low light being the kinda sorta exception). 4 stars.

|Great Backup Camera,
I bought this camera to backup my Lumix DMC FZ28. To use in situations where I don’t want to
carry the larger camera and for my wife to use. The FH20 is easy to use (settings, functions,
descriptions very similar to the FZ28. So the learning curve is simple). The stabilization in
this camera is terrific. The lens is sharp and the Intellegent Exposure mode is excellent in all the situations I have tested so far! Bottom line is that the DMC-FH20 is everything I
wanted for a backup. Great camera, Great buy!

|Very “COOL” little camera !!,
I made this purchase for my wife for christmas .
Although I bought this some time ago she just opened it for Christmas and she LOVES it!
very easy to use and the quality is great..very light very easy no problems what so ever .
Her hobby is photography so she finds it very easy to use and she knows her numbers and what to set it on so it is one nice little camera for when she dont want to lug around her bigger one. we have read reviews for this camera and we do not find anything wrong with it ..some say it is slow between shots .. My wife does not at all find this camera slow between shots..no way
Some also say its blurry when you playback the photos.. Ours is not blurry at all and I played my photos back on my 32 inch HD TV..they come out clear as a bell.
But some people DO have that problem..here is a solution that my wife says to do….
DO NOT in any way ROTATE your photos from the camera..this could damage the memory chip you have so what we always do is Hook the camera up to the computer then load the shots on to that ..then you can rotate all you want..you will see the difference .
I hope that helps people.
Also..we have no need to use the software for it either.. we just plug the camera to the computer and take my shots off the camera that way (just open the file) ..then I use my own photo sofware .. and Again not a problem at all
The Video is also cute on it..I wouldnt film “important things” such as one time events..but just for quick things..then its good .but thats not what my wife wants to use it for. so we dont mind it .
All in all we are very very happy with this camera.
Thank you

|Coolpix S570 High Value for everyday use,
There are many good cameras in this category to select from, and all have Pro’s and Con’s that ultimately are reported in these user reviews. These are personal opinion’s, and mostely not scientific. This review for the Nikon S570 tells you why I chose this camera over the others.
Since I was looking for a camera that was portable and easy to use I chose to look at these “pocket” style cameras. I’ve owned Canon, Olympus, Kodak and Nikon. I’ve found that what I consider important is the ability to get to the picture taking mode quickly. The next most important feature I look for is a menu system that is intuitive so that I can figure out how to do the things I want to do on a routine basis, like transfer pictures, delete those I don’t want and perform a little in-camera editing. Lastly, I look for a camera that has some automatic modes that make sense on daily use type cameras, like night mode, portraits and landscape modes.
For the price I got this camera for on Amazon, this one is tops in speed and easy use. It get’s you to taking picturs very fast, from the time you open the box, until your a pro with it and just need to capture a quick shot. No matter the situation, from family gatherings to landscapes, or low light shots to skinging movies, this camera rises to the challenge.
I recommend spending the extra money for a large SD card to go along with the 12 MP capability and movie action. If your going to keep it handy, It’s worth the extra expense to get a slim case. (something that is easy to open) Finally, even though this camera is not a professional type instrument, I’ve attached it to a tripod and have taken some photos over a wide exposure range to process as high dynamic range images. This camera worked pretty good for this function. (I consider this a little more advanced function for this type of camera, but the situation called for a small portable unit like this one.)
Get one for yourself and buy one as a gift.

|Excellent Photos from this little point and shoot!,
I’ve had a Nikon S510 a while back which I loved, and the Nikon S570 is even better. I like vivid colors, and when set to “vivid”, the Nikon S570 produces photos with beautiful vivid colors and excellent contrast. The wide angle lens has great edge to edge sharpness. The Nikon S570 performs well, probably not the fastest (shutter lag and start-up time), but good nonetheless. The only thing that it’s really slow in is the wait time between shots, which seems to be an eternity. I’ve missed a few shots waiting for the camera to be ready for the next shot. Otherwise, I really love this camera. It’s small and light enough to fit in you pocket, and it takes great pictures. And for it’s price, it’s definitely a great buy.
