Advanced easy to use features such as Scene Auto Selector, that automatically selects one of six scene modes, and 4 way VR image stabilization combined with 10 megapixel resolution and 3x zoom-NIKKOR lens put's the in a category all it's own.

EXPEED
Nikon's smarter approach to digital imaging technology. From image capture to processing, Nikon's comprehensive EXPEED digital imaging concept encompasses the entire picture-taking operation. EXPEED is much more than a processing engine; it is a revolution in digital photography.

4 way VR Image Stabilization minimizes the effects of camera shake for sharper results

  • Nikon's Electronic VR image stabilization compensates for the effects of camera shake by adjusting the shutter speed and ISO to reduce image blur.
  • Motion Detection automatically detects a moving subject and adjusts shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for camera shake and subject movement.
  • High ISO 2000 capability helps give you sharper results when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects.
  • Nikon's original Best Shot Selector automatically takes up to 10 shots while the shutter is pressed and saves the sharpest image.
Nikon's Scene Auto Selector
Automatically recognizes the scene and selects from one of six scene modes for best results. The will choose, Portrait, Night Portrait, Close-up (macro), Landscape, Night Landscape or Backlight mode.

  • 10.0 Megapixels for stunning prints as large as 16 x 20 inches. Plenty of sharp resolution to capture the finest details, crop creatively and produce incredible enlargements.
  • 3x Optical Zoom-NIKKOR Glass Lens. NIKKOR optics provide exceptional pictures and gets you close to the action. The lens is built on a proud heritage

I bought this camera from a Staples near me a little over a year ago. I have an SLR and was looking for something compact and light to take on vacation. From day 1 it's never worked right. It refuses to take still pictures in bright light, even though it'll shoot video in the same light conditions. Almost everything comes out blurry. I'm not a beginner camera user, but for point and shoot relaibility, I'm horribly disappointed in Nikon. It's actually so bad I've taken my SD card out and put it back in the box to sell at a yard sale for $10 just to get rid of it.

It's slick looking and portable, and fits in a pocket really well. The screen is great. The actual camera part is horrendous. Save your money and buy a different point and shoot.

Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5 3rd LCD screen in less than one year!
I bought this camera on an impulse before a trip last summer. 4 Days into the trip I turned on the camera to find the LCD screen had been broken. Neither my girlfriend or I could think of any likely scenario that would have caused such damage. After returning home and doing some research, it really upset me to find dozens of reviews online that echoed my same gripe about a fragile LCD screen.

Instead of going the route of trying to return/repair the screen through Nikon (which I discovered through online reviews/forums was almost as pricey as a new camera) I found another LCD screen online that was specifically designed for an s220. Then that one broke after about 9 months. I just today installed the 3rd LCD screen.

Do not buy this camera for this reason alone. But other reasons also apply: picture quality is definitely sub par to other 10 megapixel cameras I have used. The pictures are very grainy and/or blurry on most settings.

Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5Average rating of 1/5 Fragile - Do Not Buy
I travel frequently and needed a small durable camera to document construction sites. With batteries and cards it was a nearly $200 investment. It worked great for two working days until I sat down with the camera in the front pocket of my suit pant. This is a loose suit. The pressure from the summer weight wool pant cracked the lcd view screen. I heard the pop. Nikon service offered me the discounted repair for $100. I declined repair.

Stay Away. Too Delicate For Any Type of Use.

It is cheap, not inexpensive. Nikon designed it that way.
I expected a better product and better support from Nikon.
Never again.

Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5 Affordable but Mediocre
I was going to give it two stars, but alas, the camera is quite cheap. And so:

Automatic adjustments make everything inside appear very red.

Lacks way to fix this auto adjustment easily.

Very short battery life. Cannot charge from computer, either.

Screen could be better.

Often pixelated.

The settings it has are not organized very well.

However:

Portable

Cheap

"Cute" design

Decent with outdoor shots

It's best summed up with the word "mediocre".
