Usability

The Coolpix S6300 is about as simple as they come. There's a full auto mode, some scene and special effects options, and that's pretty much it. The main menu is brief and mostly to the point. All you can really do with the thing is, well, point... and shoot. Once you get to the shooting, it's a bit of a mixed bag. Shutter lag is minimal, but the camera is slow to process files and the underwhelming screen makes it difficult to properly review shots once they've been taken. Shot-to-shot times are acceptable, but the anemic buffer could do with some improvement.
