 The
Coolpix 4600 is also phenomenally easy to use. In fact, it's been designed
to appeal not only to beginners of all ages, but also to people who've
never even considered buying a digital camera before. With a redesigned
graphical user interface (GUI) that lets the user navigate functions by
either menu item list or icon, it enables the beginner to find the right
mode at the right moment to achieve the best results, time after time.
Furthermore, with a handy new Help button that displays a description for
each selected function on the main menu, the process has been made easier
than ever before.

The 4600's
D-Lighting feature allows in-camera compensation for uneven lighting.

The camera also features
a large, bright 1.8-inch LCD screen, making it easy to compose shots and
view recorded images at any time. It's been designed to consume much less
power, making it possible to take almost twice as many images when using
regular AA alkaline batteries.
Like its predecessors, the Coolpix 4600 also features Scene Modes,
which allow the camera to adjust to the most typical shooting
environments--Sunset, Fireworks, Indoor, Portrait, etc.--with the turn of
a dial. The Coolpix 4600 and 5600 also feature an entirely new Scene Mode,
Underwater Mode, which produces more satisfying, true-to-life colors when
using the optional
WP-CP3 waterproof case
(case not included--must be purchased separately) to shoot scenes while
snorkeling or scuba diving to a depth of up to 130 feet. This exciting new
addition increases the number of Scene Modes to 16.
Creative snap-shooters have the option of five Color Options, including
sepia tone, black-and-white, and even cyanotype, to change the entire look
and feel of a shot. The 4600 also has 14MB of internal memory, allowing
images to be recorded without additional memory media.
The Coolpix 4600 also makes it easy to capture action in an expressive
manner with movie-shooting capabilities. It offers a choice of three
simplified Movie Modes--TV, Small, and Smaller. (Movies are recorded
without sound.) It can also be easily connected to a TV through the
included video cable, to share the fun with friends and family.
The Nikon Coolpix 4600 digital
camera makes the entire digital process more convenient. Its PictBridge
compatibility makes it possible to print directly to a printer without the
need for a PC. For those who enjoy organizing and sharing their
photographs on a computer, Nikon Coolpix cameras ship with Nikon's
proprietary PictureProject software, a user-friendly photo-management
software designed expressly for use by Nikon Coolpix photographers, that
offers a broad selection of cataloguing, editing, and sharing functions.
This software package is aimed at providing a central location that is
simple, intuitive, and seamless for Coolpix digital photographers.

Potentially good camera RUINED, June 25, 2005
Reviewer: Francisco Vila "Frank" (Kearny, New Jersey) - See all my reviews
Everything about this camera is great, the picture quality is excellent,
it's small, it's not too heavy, that is until you start taking pictures
with the flash, it's a catastrophe. If you take a picture with a flash it
will take about 2-3 seconds to write to the memory card, then the screen
will turn off while the flash recharges for another 5-8 seconds. Too many
people here glossed over that particular fact and it's really a deal
breaker, because for the same price you can buy a Canon elph, one of their
S series cameras like the SD200 and the picture quality is better, it uses
rechargable batteries not AA's and it doesn't have this ridiculous flash
lag. The flash lag on this nikon 4600 is totally unacceptable, if you add
up the numbers you're looking at 7-11 seconds per picture, and if you
choose not to use the flash then you won't have a usable picture, because
the picture won't come out dark it will come out blurry, which makes no
sense but that's what happens. This camera was a gift and I feel bad i
gave it to someone, my regular camera is a Kodak DX7440 and it shoots
pictures instantaneously with no flash lag it costs about 50 dollars more.
