Nikon COOLPIX SQ Digital Camera

The Coolpix SQ is Nikon's newest compact, lightweight digital still camera with a high resolution imager and a swiveling Nikkor 3x zoom lens. It features an entirely new body design, unlike anything ever seen before in the Coolpix family. The Coolpix SQ is truly "pocket size" and highly durable thanks to an all-metal body. It's an easy-to-use mid- range model with superior image quality that will satisfy the needs of beginners to advanced amateurs. Minimize

Good quality pix, great portability and ease of use - don't spend more than $200

Author's Rating:

Pros: Portable, nice quality sharp pictures. Super easy to use, download pictures and recharge in cradle.

Cons: Must add case and compact flash memory card. Colors weak. Indoor flash a little harsh.

Bottom Line:
If you find this camera under $200 it is a very good buy for what you get. For more money, go for a camera with more MP's. Read More

A cool little square camera that's sure to disappoint.

Author's Rating:

Pros: Lightweight, fits easily into pocket, very cool looking.

Cons: Very limited creative controls, mediocre picture quality, short battery life and WAY TOO EXPENSIVE

Bottom Line:
For the price Nikon is asking for, you are 100 times better off getting similarly priced (or cheaper) models such as Canon S45 or Nikon's own 2500, 3500 and 3100 Read More

At least I can deduct it as a business expense

Author's Rating:

Pros: Swivel lens, Compact, Bright LCD

Cons: Terribly grainy pictures, Small LCD, No optical viewfinder

Bottom Line:
If you need the swivel lens and you can deal with less than optimal image quality, then you might like the SQ. Otherwise, go get a PowerShot. Read More
