Conclusion
The Nikon Coolpix S700 keeps the megapixel competition alive with its 12.1 megapixels and 1/1.72-inch image sensor. It performed well in our resolution tests, but will most photographers that use this camera actually print posters and take advantage of the resolution? Probably not. It will just take longer to download the images to a computer.
Still, the new S700 outperformed its predecessor in every test. Overall, it’s a good camera. The ultra-resolution S700 has a somewhat bland feature set: narrow 3x optical zoom lens, spotty flash, and 2.7-inch LCD screen. The LCD has excellent wide views and good resolution, and is perhaps the camera’s strongest component next to its image sensor.
These components combined with automated modes, a few manual controls, and a Movie mode that is hardly worth mentioning put the Nikon S700 in a sea of similar slim digital cameras; it’s not a standout.
