Color Accuracy (14.23)
The Nikon S630 captures color very accurately in its default color mode. Our color accuracy test is based on photographing the X-Rite ColorChecker chart under 3000 lux illumination, then using Imatest software to determine how far from the known values of the chart the test photos deviate.

The S630 did very well for most colors, especially light greens, blues and skin tones. The only areas it had any trouble were dark blues and cyans.

NOTE: Because of the way computer monitors reproduce colors, the images above do not exactly match the originals found on the chart or in the captured images. The chart should be used to judge the relative color shift, not the absolute captured colors.
| Color Score Comparisons |
 |
Compared to the other cameras, the Nikon was a bit less accurate than the Sony T900, but better than the Canon SD780 IS and the Panasonic FX580.
Color Modes (3.00)
The S630 only has two color modes, Standard and Vivid, of which the first is far more accurate. Vivid mode oversaturates the image considerably, and strongly brightens blues, reds and oranges.
