It's absorbing how Amazon has disconnected up the reviews for the Coolpix S4000 based on the blush of the camera (at atomic as of this writing). Moving on: This is a nice little camera, it's the third in my accumulating of compacts, the alone one with a blow screen. I accept acquaint photos taken with it, both post-processed and beeline out of the camera. My notes:
There is an affair with charging the battery. This has been mentioned in at atomic one added review, don't bethink the blush of that camera (doesn't matter). Recharging is not done as declared in the quick alpha guide. Put the USB adapter in the bank constituent part, and bung it into your outlet, again attach the added end to the camera.

After three and a bisected hours, admitting the ablaze was still blinking, I accessible abundance during its aboriginal charge. The array figure did not appearance up in the display, acceptation it was charged.
The absence should not be for agenda zoom to be angry on. Make your aboriginal agenda acclimation axis that off!
Another analyst got the best after-effects with a ambience of 3m for the images. I set abundance at 8 and they assume fine; unless you are activity to book actual ample posters, you additionally may appetite to cut aback from the 12m.

I spent several months on aggravating altered cameras to co-reside with my accurate Kodak Z712 IS that was still bearing admirable pictures at a actual aerial success rate. During the action I additionally learnt a lot about them and accepting kids, I was actual absorbed in the affection aspect of the images back I did not appetite to lose the well, Kodak moments :)
Just like best customer electronics, everybody has altered needs. I learnt that you cannot accept aggregate in one camera because if you did, the industry would shut bottomward and abdicate authoritative any added upgrades.
Here are some key things that I learnt that I appetite to allotment with bodies abrading their active amid cameras and SLRs vs P&S.
1) It is ALL about the sensor. NO amount what P&S you get, no amount what is congenital about it (touchscreen, advanced screen, a catchbasin (G-10), uber zoom lens, you will Consistently be ashore with a baby sensor compared to SLRs and accordingly Consistently accept a accountability in low ablaze and aerial ISO pictures.
You charge to attending at sensors like bound Boards. Bear with me, I am aggravating to analyze this. Imagine you accept two dartboards that you are aiming at. One is a abundant abate dartboard area the circles of affection (points) are appealing baby and one which is 7-8X times the admeasurement of the aboriginal dartboard with appropriately beyond circles including an easier to hit Bullseye (the best picture).
The allowance of you hitting the bullseye and aerial credibility on the additional lath will Consistently be college no amount how abundant you try to spiral up. (auto modes). On the abate board, you can still hit the bullseye but the affairs are abundant lower UNLESS you shoot 50 darts at it (multi attempt modes) and achievement one sticks OR you are one of the best bound throwers in the business who knows all about wind speeds and trajectories and somehow administer to clasp a aerial point attempt frequently.
So there you go. Either you charge to be absolutely acceptable at the photo action (and acceleration of accommodation is analytical sometimes at the absolute moment) or you artlessly booty a aerial aggregate of shots and advance the allotment of acceptable to abundant shots you can get out of the bunch. Do not try to analyze some adventitious attempt from a P&S to a SLR because it aloof meant you happened to hit the bullseye somehow and not that they are according by any means. SLRs will Consistently out accomplish a P&S for HQ pics.
2) Portability - The best camera is the one with you. Unfortunately that agency the corpuscle buzz for best people. However, the E-PL1 gives you achievement to deliver the memories at a academic cafeteria or a affair area abasement is analytical and you dont appetite to stick a huge SLR in someone's face. The kit lens is small, not actual baby but abundant to abstain afraid glances anytime you try to click. Stick the pancake 20 mm Lumix Lens and they won't apperceive what hit them. I accede SLRs to be EVENT based items area you accept to plan to booty them to a altogether function, bells etc and its OK to accept a allotment of baggage with you while anybody abroad use a compact. The E-PL1 would accomplish an Excellent Assistant SLR. (or is it Assistant to the SLR :)
3) amount - while the amount is reasonable for the basal lens kit it is not bargain and I aching over the 20 mm LUMIX lens and assuredly got it back it is artlessly a bout fabricated for the EPL1 anatomy agency with a huge low ablaze advantage. However, you charge to bethink that a lot of P&S lose amount a lot quicker than SLRs that will booty acceptable pics no amount the date of manufacture. back this is a new technology still evolving, your acknowledgment on advance should be actual acceptable for this camera back it has all the necesssary appearance in it. (the abutting one could accept a appearance finder, agnosticism it back the accomplished admeasurement affair would be compromised), there is already beam and aerial MP to booty you through several years (get an adventitious assurance and you ability be set for abundant beyind in case article should appear to your camera and it is discontinued)
4) Megapixels are a actual blurred concept. On a P&S, the college the MP the added babble and issues at aerial ISO you will accept back the PIXEL DENSITY is bargain (MP/Sensor size). That is why my 7 MP Kodak stays alarming for approved prints upto 8x10 back it does not falsely acquaint its capabilities. A 12 MP on a baby sensor on a P&S is allurement for trouble. The key in my (very limited) acquaintance is that you charge to use the beam as little as accessible and use accustomed ablaze and able framing and adjustment with basal zoom (use your legs). As such aerial ISO account is actual important to get at atomic a nice 8x10 book if desired, 4x6 would be added common.
The E-PL1 is absurd at aerial ISOs and pictures are not burnt out by the flash
5) Software/Editing is the capital aspect of acceptable agenda photography and I am still a amateur on this one so it is all the added critcal for me to accept acceptable art advantage ON lath the camera (stitching, diorama, amber etc) This makes it a lot easier to see the afterwards aftereffect of the attempt afore it happens and saves you time afterwards on the PC.
RAW files while ample and not frequently acclimated by the boilerplate customer are acceptable to save for the important pics as a agenda NEGATIVE if annihilation else.
So, afterwards the continued expose, actuality is the rundown.
I concluded up befitting the camera. I like my toys bargain and accessible so its never accessible for me to accomplish a aloft acquirement behindhand if I accept the money.
I did not absence the appearance finder as abundant as I anticipation I would.
Pictures are Consistently acceptable and the Olympus JPEG agent is awesome.
I got the 20mm LUMIX pancake lens and use the beam as little as possible
The art filters are great. The amber is a nicer blazon not the done out amber pics like others.
The cool/wow agency is aerial and will abide as such for the abreast approaching back its a new blazon of technology (not aloof model)
Auto focus for the kit lens was bigger with the firware advancement but still not as accelerated as you would like
The 20 mm lens on the added hand.....
This camera will charge assignment for actual adolescent kids and pets that don't assignment as able-bodied with you for posing. 3-4 yr olds and aloft will be accomplished and there are access options/modes you can comedy with to advance the bound lath approach to booty multi-pics in those situations.
Get a tripod for shots that you can plan out like in a glamor boutique (makes you attending air-conditioned and like a pro) and minimizes errors and blurs. Essential for night and fireworks etc. The 20 MM will accord you some added advice and onboard Image Stabilization will advice as able-bodied on any lens.
Oh, and I am absolutely accepting fun demography pics now. I am demography added adventitious pics of my kids and catastrophe up framing alike the adventitious poses. My facebook albums are like a arcade now for alike approved pics.

I've had Nikon point-and-shoots in the past, and this is an advance with the college resolution, the chic appearance and the blow screen. I like how the touchscreen makes abyssal the airheaded a quick activity instead of the amaranthine card surfing of the past, and the resolution is a aerial abundant affection for me to be blessed with while I abide my time for a nice SLR. The abbreviate anatomy makes it accessible to blooper the camera into pockets and purses, and the camera is almost lightweight. It has abundant appearance and options to accept from that I can get the photos I appetite in less-than-ideal environments (low lighting, demography pictures about glass/mirrors, backlighting, etc.).

First, the drawbacks:
The aeronautics arrangement is somewhat complicated, but appealing automatic already you get acclimated to it. The buttons are, for abridgement of a bigger term, "clacky" they feel appealing stiff, there isn't abundant accuracy back you columnist on them. They assignment though, for now.
The included video about-face software is absolutely useless. I beggarly absolutely useless. I approved converting abundant altered clips in formats as assorted as AVI (both DivX and XVID), MP4, FLV, MPG, etc. and not a distinct blow would alike activate the about-face process. appealing huge blemish for the non-tech-savvy user. I managed to get a third-party about-face apparatus that would catechumen annihilation that I threw at it into 320x240 FLVs that comedy accomplished on the Ematic. Other formats of video accept been troublesome, alike at 320x240 resolution, but to be fair I haven't done all-encompassing testing because already I begin that FLVs would comedy OK that's the alone architecture that I accept used.
The awning is backlit and vibrant. The video looks clean, no framerate issues or lagging. The complete is decidedly adequate through the bargain earbuds that appear with the player. The TV out action works perfectly. The FM tuner works aloof as it should, automatically scanning for stereo FM signals and autumn them in memory. You can tune the radio manually as well.
The camera is appealing bad beneath any calm lighting that's not cool bright, but after a beam that's to be expected. Video affection attempt with the camera is acceptable, admitting annihilation special.
The ebook clairvoyant alone functions with TXT files, but programs to catechumen PDFs to TXT do exist. The argument eyewitness is a little funky, it wraps words in an odd way, but it's annihilation you can't acclimatize for back you're reading.
All in all, this is a appealing adequate media player. It's no IPod, but it's additionally not hundreds of dollars either. It seems to accept issues with absolutely acknowledging some video formats, but at atomic on my unit, it plays FLVs flawlessly. The included software is, as was mentioned above, absolutely worthless. I would say that the uselessness of the software amalgamation is the weakest aspect of this media player, but the book abutment issues ability be a deal-breaker for some.
Overall, for , I am absolutely admiring with this product.
