The almost fully automated Nikon Coolpix S8000 with a 10X optical zoom is the ideal high-zoom camera for anyone who doesn’t want to fuss with in-camera settings.
Advanced photographers won’t like the lack of manual controls, but people who are looking for a dead-simple pocket megazoom will appreciate this 14.2-megapixel camera. It has a wideangle–to–telephoto reach of 50mm to 30mm, 720p HD video, and a sharp 3-inch LCD.
Shooting modes include full auto, 15 scene modes, and an automatic scene selector that chooses the best scene mode.
