Purchase around Mother’s Day.
I decided to purchase the Nikon since I have a D50.
To summarize the problems:
Couple weeks after purchase the shutter would not close and the camera would not shut down without taking the battery out. The camera was in repair ( Best Buy) for a month.
Right after I got it back it would not read ANY memory card without taking the card in and out several times or at all. Plus the camera would not shut down again without taking the battery out.
Went back to Best Buy . Had the camera services for the memory card reader error and the shut down. The camera was in service for a month again. Just received the camera back yesterday and again the camera has a problem reading the memory card. So far it is shutting down.
Best Buy’s policy is to bring the camera in 4 times before it is considered a lemon. No matter if it is the same problem. I am taking it back to Best Buy today.
Stay away from this camera. The pictures are not nice. My brother purchased a Cannon and it takes a lot better pictures and he has no problem with it.
Hope it helps.

Ainda estou testando mas gostei muito. É pequena, tem boa resolução e filma com o zoom.

MADE IN CHINA! Fast start up, but SLOW shutter. Small size, very pocketable. I have a Canon 790 IS, 3 inch lcd, out performs this S600 by leaps in all respects, and is made in Japan. Also, the S600 battery charger is cheapo corded unit, most up to date chargers are directly pluggable to hang on an outlet.
UPDATE: 8/19/08: No problems, battery life is reasonable. Really like the way the S600 crops, best yet! Simply select pic, zoom to larger size, select area to crop, press select button. VOILA! It re-records. This is one of the reasons that a high mega pixel camera is at an advantage. Wish that AMZ would stock the EN-EL10 battery as a “free ship” item, “Sellers” want S&H that is a ‘lil steep. So far no regrets on buying this camera, would reccomend it as a nice P&S for the price on AMZ.

Would never buy another like this because it had a recall issued shortly afterwards and Nikon would not pay the freight !!!

Fairly good product for the price.
Pros: Super fast start up. Intuitive interface. Beautiful outlook.
Cons: not so good auto white balance (but manual works well). Noisy at high ISO (but 200 is fairly good).
Bottom line: nice point-and-shoot small, handy camera. Recommended for shooting daily family photos.
