Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy connection via wifi or bluetooth to both my iphone and ipad. Has nfc, transfers to phone quickly. Connecting to phone/tablet/pc is a bit of a chore, but it does work if you persist. Bluetooth feature is great for sending photos quickly.
The nikon coolpix s9600 has a 40x optical zoom. The zoom is amazing (optical 40x and digital 80x) and there appears to be very little loss of detail. Fantastic zoom for such a small camera.
All my other cameras are canon and because i'm getting to be a wrinkly old sod now. Colour rendering good and matched my larger canon slr. Heavier than a cheap all-in camera, but much better results.
Size is perfect for travelling. Easy to use features for an amateur photographer. Would make some thief a very happy person if they grabbed my bag with it all in.
Camera is perfect. The richness of the colour and detail is fantastic. The clarity on this is amazing.
Cons
The connect app is broken for android 10 and newer. This is a deal breaker. Connectivity was the * feature of the camera.
