Nikon's S700 isn't an incredible compact camera, but it does the job combining good pictures with a reasonable feature set, which will be fine for most consumers.

A high-resolution, slimline digicam with features and performance that will suit snapshooters.Nikon's Coolpix S700 has many of the same features as the Coolpix S510 model - including the EXPEED image processor - but sports a higher-resolution (12.1 megapixels effective) image sensor and larger LCD monitor. Its zoom lens covers a marginally longer focal length range (equivalent to 37-111mm in 35mm format) and supports closer focusing than the S510. Designed primarily for snapshooters, it's available in 'Titanium Silver' and 'Urban Black'.

You can get a 12MP ultra-compact with decent image quality, but it'll cost you.

My Nikon Coolpix S7000 review shows an inexpensive point and shoot camera that compares favorably against other models in its price range. Add in the fact that the S7000 has a 20X optical zoom lens, which is a rarely found aspect of a thin camera, resulting in a model that is well worth considering.

Nikon Coolpix S700

The second metal bodied compact Nikon with an image stabilized lens is the S700. Get ready to be a little bit afraid because this camera packs twelve megapixels behind its three times optical zoom lens (F2.8 - F5.4). Naturally like all the cameras today the S700 gets 'EXPEED', lets hope it has an effective noise reduction algorithm. The S700 will cost £279.99 and will be available from 'Autumn 2007'.
