Nikon Coolpix S6300 16 Megapixel Digital Camera - Red - Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A.

2015-10-13T20:00:00

I've had this camera for over 4 years now and am disappointed in the poor quality pictures it takes when using natural light. There are many times when I don't wish to use flash because I don't like the image lit up using artificial light. But without it, if you are taking a picture of your kids or pets and they are not standing still, they come out pretty blurred. I've taken many pictures with this camera and had that happen. Am very disappointed. I've had other cheaper cameras where this does not occur. For a name brand as Nikon I'm very disappointed. The zoom is poor as well. When using digital zoom, again, need to hold it perfectly steady for a good crisp clear picture.

My daughter wanted a new camera since hers was stolen. It's more camera than she needs but because it a refurbished the price was right. She loves the video function I like it's compact size can't wait to see what she takes with it. The megapixels give this a lot of cropping leeway.

I am a jewelry designer/metalsmith. This camera works for all my up close photos of jewelry and tutorials that I make. The audio is amazing. I record my guitar player/hubby at his shows and it records audio beautifully. I highly recommend this camera. I have been using it for over two years now. And I have to admit I have dropped it several times and it's still working great. Thank goodness.

I was buying this for my friend, and this camera is pretty good one for the price. Its very light, pocket size, high caliber,cool effects, high resolution makes this worth a buy ! Good for casual clicks when you dont really want to carry your DSLR kit

I really like that image quality and the battery life is great took 400 pic at a weeding (moderate zoom light flash, and light video taking) The size is great to take on trips

This is a handy compact camera that is easily pocketable for quick pics. I recently used it on vacation in the Bar Harbor Maine area. For the best pictures, I use my Nikon D5100, such as on the Lighthouse boat tour or other tours. When I'm just walking around town, I leave the D5100 behind. I use my iPhone 4S for casual pics that I want to post or email, and I use my Nikon S6300 when I want a little better picture or when lighting conditions require a little more horsepower. It performed perfectly in that scenario. This is a good camera to carry with you all the time.

I use this camera at work and for personal pictures. I take photos for several online auction sites and website photos, as well as using it for family pictures and vacations. I absolutely love the S6300. It's been one of the only cameras that I've ever kept around instead of using my phone. I'm by no means a professional photographer or anything like that, but as far as personal use goes this is DEFINITELY a good camera. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an easy to use, good quality camera.

I was quite surprised at the quality of this refurbished camera. I have had several new Coolpix cameras in the past and this one is just as nice for half the price! I would highly recommend this camera to any casual photographer! It is just perfect!

Use it for taking photos occasionally. My wife loves this camera as this is very compact and she can capture all the memorable moments when needed.

Nice camera when it works, but a very very short lifetime..6 months max then it dies. First the battery then it doesn't charge, then you can't even turn it on...dead Learned to buy a extended warranty through the store I will get a complete refund oh BTW I gave Nikon a second chance, no more Nikons for me.

I bought the S6300 at Costco just before a big Thanksgiving vacation with family and friends. I was enjoying the features, of which a quick shutter speed was one I sought when I bought the camera. Pictures were very good and I was happy I had made the purchase. I put it in the case that came with the camera when it was not in use. A few weeks later we had an early family gathering for Christmas. I was taking pictures and set the camera down. My adult daughter took a couple of picture and while holding the camera, it slipped and fell to the ground. I wasn't happy when I saw the view screen had a small scratch on it. I took a few more pictures that night. We took the grandchildren on a Santa train. I noticed the pictures were not coming out well at all and discovered the camera had fractured along the top of the camera along the line, like it had broken away from the pieces that are put together during manufacturing. Since it was less than a month, I took it back to Costco. Since it was broken, they would do nothing but they got me in contact with Nikon. The answer I got from Nikon was the same, it is broken and the warranty is void. I could attempt to get it repaired at probably close to the cost I paid for the camera. I have had number of different cameras over the years and they have survived drops and banging. Based on my experience, I can not see myself buying another Nikon if they come apart so easily. I guess I should be glad I did not buy the extended warranty since the result would have been the same (cameras do not have drop protection like phones and computers)

candid...great for indoor and outdoor...read the book for extra enhancement options (color)...haven't paid a professional for framed photos of my children around my house...I do it myself...

I bought a Nikon refurb due to their excellent brand reputation. I am very happy I did. I bought the camera for an upcoming vacation and also to use hiking. So small & light in my backpack. So far it exceeds my expectations. It does so much in such a little package! I had the bright idea of attaching a mini tripod and using it to hold the camera while in movie mode. It worked great!

Point and shoot capabilities are optimized with auto-functions. Self-focusing is very beneficial when switching back and forth between zoom and wide angle.

I really love this camera. All the features on it are pretty awesome and the sensor is good for pictures that are taken while moving.

I bought this camera because I was told it takes pictures extremely fast and has 10x zoom. The zoom is incredible, but the time it takes to take one photo to the next is agonizing!! I even put a Class 10, 35 MBs SD card in to help take faster pictures, and it didn't make a difference. I do have a friend that has the same camera and hers does work just as described. I guess I just got the short stick out of the bunch.

Love the options that let you enhance your pictures without having to be a professional photographer. Pretty user friendly for those of us that haven't read the manual yet...Pictures are crystal clear and love the zoom feature. Bought this for my mother-in-law (in her 80's) and she LOVES it as well. Would definitely recommend this product. Wish it came with a case, though.
