Disappointing purchase
In April 2010 I bought an S70 in USA, but in October 2011 stopped working (now I am living in Lima, Peru), from one moment to another sounded strange and appeared the message "Lens Error".
I took it for service and was told that fell through the rotor of the lens, but never dropped or wet. The repair cost me as much as a new camera and it is over warranty.
This purchase has been disappointing to me.
Additionally I always had problems with the pictures at night.
I do not recommend this model

Average quality of pic
I had one L100. Recently I purchased s70, but the quality of picture taken by L100 is still better than s70 ,though it is just 10 MP.

Great Camera!
This camera has great picture quality. The price was good and love the size of viewing pictures. This camera comes with great features. I bought it for the protected lens, so sand does not get to it.
Only Con: Not sold on the sliding door. I can see it causing problems.

I love it
I love this camera, I have it in red. It easy to use and has a nice big screen. Mine isn't working right now though so that has to be on the negative side. I would buy another one though.

blurry pictures
I bought this camera a year ago. I have always owned Nikon cameras and loved them. I was very disapointed in this camera. I get blurry pictures 50% of the time. If you want to capture precious memories do not get this camera.

When we download pictures from out camera (Coolpix s70)to our computer (running with Vista) many pictures are distorted, discolored and have spots.
We tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Nikon software that came with the camera and it didn't help.

The battery is fully charged but when I turn the camera on the display is black. If I touch the screen there is a response. I have tried removing the battery for a couple of days then reinserting but nothing has changed.

I tried charging it using the charging attachment it came with and plugging it into the wall; however, no light comes on. I tried charging it via my computer using the usb, but it still will not charge. No light comes on, and it appears to be completely dead. I live in the US so I do not believe power in the socket is the problem. Also it had been working fine not long before.

I just purchased a replacement USB plug for my Nikon s70, and the mini usb does not plug into the camera. I ordered the replacement directly from Nikon, off your website here. The product number is UC-56. I have a Nikon S70, as I stated. What should I do?
