Steves Digicams 's conclusion / rating - 16 September 2009 |
“ The Nikon Coolpix S620 is an ultra-compact, 12-megapixel digicam that offers plenty of cool features, and great performance. I feel that it could use a boost in the Image Quality department, but overall the S620 will capture pleasing snapshots. With a street price of about $229, Nikon has created a nice compact model that is sure to be popular this year. If you'd like to have a bit more powerful zoom range, be sure to check out the Nikon Coolpix S630 as well... ”

DigitalCameraReview 's conclusion / rating - 13 July 2009 |
“ During the last years of his life Magnum pro Henri Cartier-Bresson replaced his venerable Leica rangefinder with an ultracompact Contax T. Like the Contax T, the ultracompact Coolpix S620 does a remarkably good job with some of the things its predecessors were famous for – plus it's tough enough to go just about anywhere.
The Nikon Coolpix S620 is a very good digital camera, but in the final analysis, the S620 ends up right in the middle of the 12 megapixel ultracompact pack. That's not necessarily a bad thing – higher-rated comparable cameras are not substantially better.
Like most of its contemporaries, the S620 is probably not a good choice for those who like to shoot indoors or in low/dim light, but unlike many of its contemporaries the S620 features a wide-angle lens and the ability to capture stunning macro images.
The S620 will appeal to beginners, casual photographers looking for a stylish "pocket" digicam and hikers/bikers/backpackers/travelers looking for a camera that packs lots of photographic potential into a small lightweight package... ”

DPInterface 's conclusion / rating - 07 April 2009 |
“ 12 megapixels, a 4X optical zoom lens, a large bright 2.7 inch LCD and a nice set of point-and-shoot features – that’s the Nikon Coolpix S620. The camera’s LCD is viewable in low and bright light and the camera has good build quality and ergonomics. A rotary wheel on the rear of the Coolpix S620 assists in navigating menus, changing settings and scrolling through other options.
The Coolpix S620 has an array of features which try to ensure your people photos turn out as good as possible. It has features like face, smile, blink and motion detection plus software based redeye removal. There’s also a good choice of scene modes available plus a mode which picks a scene mode automatically based on shooting conditions.
To top things off, the Coolpix S620 features built-in help tooltips for shooting modes and items as well as Nikon’s improved 2009 Coolpix menu system. What does the camera lack here? Manual controls! The Coolpix S620 has none, with the exception of custom white balance.
On the performance side, the camera has good operation and shooting speed along with good image quality output. With low noise till ISO 400 and still usable images at ISO 800, the only things you’ll have to watch out for on the Coolpix S620 are color fringing and edge softness.
The Nikon Coolpix S620 is a nice, stylish digital camera that (just) gets my recommendation. It’s straightforward to use and has overall good image quality. The Coolpix S620 is perfectly capable of producing big, good quality prints, if you’re willing to remove color fringing and perhaps some additional post processing on the computer. It’s just that the camera skimps on information display, manual controls and is lacking in the movie department... ”

CNET UK 's conclusion / rating - 13 March 2009 |
“ The Nikon Coolpix S620 is fast, responsive, compact and stylish, and the 4x wideangle zoom makes it practical too. Picture quality is good, but the high-ISO capability has limited value. While the face-, smile- and blink-detection and subject-tracking features are clever, unfortunately they're so clever that you might never figure out quite what they're going to do and when... ”

Pocket-lint 's conclusion / rating - 06 March 2009 |
“ The S620 is a very straightforward camera that performs well and takes good pictures. Overly noisy pictures could become an issue if you regularly shoot in low light conditions, however the contrast capabilities mean on the whole you'll get nice well-balanced photos.
If you are looking for a slim point and shoot this isn't going to be it, but at least the results, ie the pictures, and the in built tech mean the are better than average... ”
