Product Review: Nikon COOLPIX S7000 Digital Camera

What is it: A digital camera with 20x optical zoom and built-in Wi-Fi

Price and Where to Buy: Currently on sale at Amazon for $176.95.

Pros:

  • Wi-Fi works smoothly
  • Slim and stylish
  • More zoom power than other cameras of the same size
  • Easy to use
  • Fast on and off ability
  • Cons:

  • Some of the effect features don’t differ much from each other
  • Photo quality only slightly better than most iPhones
  • How it Rates:

    • Usefulness: 7/10. With the ever improving camera capabilities of the smartphone, digital cameras are becoming more dispensable
    • Value: 8/10. Great price for a camera with as many features as the Coolpix offers
    • Portability: 8/10. Perfect size for carrying with you
    • Cool Factor: 9/10. Super sleek and stylish looking camera—and the Wi-Fi capability is an added bonus

    Final Verdict: If you are looking for a camera to replace your iPhone, I would not suggest this one because the photo quality is not that much superior. However, if you want a camera for added storage, better zoom, and to save a little battery on your iPhone while still being able to easily post photos to your social media accounts, this camera is it.
