Nikon Coolpix S500 prices and specs
The Coolpix S500 was released on Feb 20, 2007. For now the lowest price for the device is $152.74
The Coolpix S500 is a ultracompact camera. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Coolpix S500 is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't make pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The Nikon Coolpix S500 can make photos at 7 megapixels highest resolution. But for better image quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The Coolpix S500 has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the model will make photos with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has more portable size. And if you want to make photos of the best quality pay attention to Leica Q (Typ 116).
The Nikon Coolpix S500 can even produce videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480.
The lens is fixed and you won't be able to switch it. The lens has low 3x optical zoom.
