They boast 6.0 effective megapixels & feature a 3x Zoom-Nikkor ED Glass lens.
Making it simple & convenient to take stunning portraits, a standalone One-Touch Portrait Button featured on both the S5 & S6, gives users instant access to the Face Priority AF & In-Camera Red Eye Fix options. To ensure quality photos in various shooting environments, users have the option of 16 scene modes, 17 for S5 with Underwater mode, including 4 modes with Scene Assist & a TV Quality Movie Mode function that records moving memories at 30fps with sound.
Sharing digital images is made easy with the new Pictmotion technology, which puts a creative new spin on the average in-camera slide show. By allowing users to select their favorite recorded images & matching one of 5 royalty-free, pre-installed music files on the camera, or your own choice of music, Pictmotion automatically analyzes all the elements to produce in-camera slide shows that look great & are fun to share with others.
The COOLPIX S5 & S6 provide quality playback of sound & the bright, sharp expanded 2.5 & 3.0-inch LCD's, with an impressively wide 170-degree viewing a ngle, make it easy for everyone to see.

Another new feature for the COOLPIX S5 & S6 includes a calendar function that automatically sorts images according to the date that they were taken.
For added in camera assistance, Nikon created a Help button, which is now standard on all Nikon's new COOLPIX cameras. This component provides easy-to-understand explanations for functions on the main menu.
Supporting both 80211.b & 80211.g WiFi standards, the built-in WiFi on the COOLPIX S6 allows for wireless transfer & printing of pictures to any PictBridge-enabled printer. For wireless printing of pictures without a computer Nikon offers the accessory Wireless Printer Adapter PD-10.
