 Indoor zoom is terrible May 30, 2010
I like this camera for outdoor shots, but indoors, nope. If you zoom in the photos are horrible! grainy and just really bad. I wanted to try a small camera with a decent zoom but this is terrible indoors. it does have a quick response time, and if you don't use it inside much or without the zoom maybe it will work for you. took it back and went back to the larger Canon SX120 b/c I use the zoom and shoot inside, this does that far batter.
 Great Point and Shoot Apr 05, 2010
This camera can power on and take a picture in 1 second, but if you don't take it right away you have to wait about 5 seconds. I'm happy with the camera's portability and quality, but would like it to take pictures in faster intervals (about 1-2 seconds between shots).

Surprisingly disappointed Feb 13, 2010
I'm a semi-professional photographer who's been using Nikon cameras and products for several years with zero complaints. I purchased this camera to have something more portable for snapshots of friends and family. My faith in Nikon was misplaced and I've found myself sorely wishing that I had gone to a brick and mortar store to test-drive a few small cameras. I admit that it's quite possible that I'm jaded and spoiled after having shot with a D200 and D700 for years, but the picture quality of this camera is incredibly dismal, the build quality is so-so, and the speed of operation is also incredibly disappointing.
If you like to use a flash a lot and aren't really concerned about the quality of your pictures, this camera might be acceptable to you. But if you are somewhat technically savvy when it comes to cameras, you should be aware that the 12 megapixels and ISO 6400 capability do NOT translate into even marginally acceptable picture quality. The sensor in this camera is really from the bottom of the barrel, and after having used it for awhile, I was very disheartened to discover that my iphone actually takes better quality pictures than this camera. Additionally, start-up is surprisingly slow, auto-focus is only quick in really bright light and I've had a few problems transferring files from the camera to my computer (issues with both speed and glitches).
On the bright side, the video quality, although limited by the poor sensor quality is not half-bad. Although I have occasionally had issues with the sound quality (choppy sound sometimes occurs when recording movies).
My advice is to shop around before purchasing this camera. I paid $200 for mine two months ago, and in spite of trying to like and use the camera, I've regretted it ever since.

Nice point and shoot Jan 28, 2010
I picked up the Nikon S640 as a throw away camera that I would carry everywhere especially where my DSLR is too bulky/heavy and I am not on a photo job assignment. My philosophy regarding cameras is located here and I will not repeat it (at [...] and select "equipment" from the home page). I will start with my negative points. 1) it is not an indoor sports camera 2)It does not have a manual override; however, the scenes can be selected with an eye towards min depth of field (portate mode) sports for fastest shutter etc. 3) no ability to create raw files. It was a challenge to take an indoor photo without flash at 1600 ASA with a decent shutter speed but it can be done. The time between image capture and operator view of the image is in multiple seconds and seems long.
Positive points - 1) nice form factor, light and small, 2) relatively quick to startup (less than 2 sec) to shoot if in automatic mode, reasonable quality (see gallery of unretouched photos at the [...] equipment selection and then the "here" hot word under point and shoot discriminators). Would I shoot a wedding with it? No; however, I most likely I will take it to dinner tonight when we meet a cousin for the first time.
I have used it extensively to record the snow for the past week. Images are very good and can be printed on 17 inch paper so I am extremely pleased with this camera. If you go to my clarityphotos web site and navigate to the washington dc area in the scenic tab, the snow pictures are on the end of the line.
