    I bough the Nikon Coolpix 4600 for my son. It is very simple to use and provides well focused and balanced exposure results. The interface to a Mac or Windows XP is straight forward and does not require the Nikon software (on a Mac it is simplicity itself).

    Initially the portrait and scene mode seemed naff, but in fact they work very well and prove to provide very consistent results. The use of standard AA cells (Alkali or NiXH) is convenient and battery life is fair. The internal memory is useful but limited in size. Does anyone use a camera at reduced resolution? The adoption of SD memory cards is great (increasingly becoming the preferred norm). The flash it quite powerful and the red eye reduction function is very effective, if annoying to those photographed. It does take the camera several second to recharge the flash following use.

    The camera is small a light and has a built in lens guard that protect it when turned off. Its size can be a problem and although appreciated it is easy to cover the flash inadvertently.

    Overall I feel it very much deserves a five star rating it performs as advertised, delivers very pleasing results and is very good value for money.

    By A Customer
    I have no real criticisms of the Nikon 4600. As a simpe point and shoot camera with a good range of features it is hard to beat. After spending some time reading the so called "expert" reviews on various websites I was expecting the 4600 to perform very well outside but not so well inside. Actually this has proved to be completely incorrect as the camera takes excellent pictures inside as well even under poor lighting conditions.
    I would recommend purchasing the 256MB SD card which holds around 130 4MP pictures.
    All in all, a great little camera, well built, compact, easy to use and very good value for money.

    Excellent Product 11 July 2005
    I would recommend this camera for both beginners and experts. Using the quick start instructions you are able to produce excellent quality photos immediately. I would advise you buy rechargeable AA batteries as you could easily get through quite a few batteries whilst out and about.

    I cannot fault this camera as yet, its fantastic value for money and compact enough to fit it your pocket or bag.
