Nikon Coolpix S9300
The Nikon Coolpix S9300 ($349.95 direct) manages to pack a sharp 18x zoom lens into its compact body, but the 16-megapixel camera is slow to start and image quality suffers greatly at even modest ISO settings.
Pros:
- Sharp lens
- 6fps burst shooting
- GPS
- Good control layout
Cons:
- Muddy images at medium ISO settings
- Slow to start

over priced with poor results
bought as a back-up for use in well lit action situations, I assumed that Nikons pedigree would stand me in good stead. Boy was I wrong! Even in bright sunlight, fast action was blurredand shutter lag made the sports mode un-usable.
Pros:
- Durable
Cons:
- Low-Quality Recordings

Clear and true colors!
I wanted another camera that has the zoom power, picture quality but not the weight to carry around on some of our travel adventures. <br />The Nikon S9300 has all the qualities I was looking for.
Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Fast/accurate auto-focus
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Great Zoom

Nikon Coolpix S9300 REVIEW: Sleek and Slow
The Nikon Coolpix S9300 will undoubtedly sell well, but it's not the best option out there in this price range. For me, the negatives outweighed the positives. The camera is like Mrs. Robinson.

Nikon Coolpix S9300 Review
The Nikon Coolpix S9300 is definite performer. Its 18x optical zoom coupled up with the lens based vibration reduction system allow for great hand-held shots (provided there is enough light). The build quality is superb and for those who like bells and whistles, there's even a GPS chip.
Pros:
- Excellent zoom range with effective stabilization
- Effective Scene modes
- Compact form factor
- Macro mode is very effective
Cons:
- No PASM mode
- No option to turn off in-camera noise reduction

Nikon Coolpix S9300
The Nikon Coolpix S9300 is a good choice for anyone after a pure point-and-shoot experience and a long zoom lens. If you don't want the GPS or 3D photo mode, and you don't mind popping up your own flash, then you might want to save yourself some money and buy an S9100 before they're gone.
Pros:
- Fast shooting performance
- A wide
- long lens in a pocketable body
- Several fun and useful shooting modes that help you get the best shot without much effort
Cons:
- Competing models have longer lenses and more shooting options
- Photos aren't the sharpest when viewed at larger sizes
