What I have to criticize directly to the beginning is that this camera etc. very often make blurred images even when image stabilization. I was with the Nikon already several times and had to go after my return and check the photos, every time remove a majority of the images because they are simple muddy or blurred.
If it still works out, then see the photos really look good and have a good quality.
Another shortcoming is that the Nikon can not deal very well with light (dim light, candlelight or fireworks).
Watch the videos I can only agree, the picture quality is not great, but I would nevertheless like to emphasize positive, is the sound quality. The camera adjusts the sound very well, so there is no overdriven bass more.
In addition, my camera is already three times "crashed" and I had to remove the battery and inserting again. After a firmware update, this is no longer occurred (otherwise the back).
In summary:
The Nikon Coolpix S8000 I would not buy me one more time. I make the most out of the camera and hope that one or the other nice photo even comes with rum!
