Advantages: good design, large lcd, photo quality, sd card, simple to use Disadvantages: no viewfinder, poor abilities in low light
I've had this camera or around three years and use it when I don't have or need my dslr.
As a compact digital camera it's getting on in years now and has been surpassed by newer models, that said it's still a worthwhile purchase.
Positives:
At 5.1 megapixels it's more than enough for the purposes of most compact camera users (despite what most camera manufacturers would try to make you believe - more megapixels is not necessarily better).
The camera is capable of filming at a reasonable quality (there is a switch on the back which you slide across to get the recording mode) and the camera can also record sound which is an advantage
The LCD screen on the back of the camera is large (2.5") in comparison to the cameras overall size which is handy when it comes to taking the photo as there is no view finder. It is of course also handy ...
Advantages: from Studio direkt to CMYK, superior image quality Disadvantages: thetered camera, needs continuous light
This is Leica“s very first selfmade digital camera. With the LEICA S1 Pro, Leica Camera, Solms, has managed to further increase the imaging quality and productivity of the digital studio camera. This increase in performance is achieved with a remarkable sensor which results in a maximum data quality at a high signal to noise ratio. This has a4-fold increase in light sensitivity, meaning that even critical photographic situations at low levels of illumination can be handled more effectively.
The photographer can use the modeling light of his or her existing studio flash equipment for taking the shots, for instance.
The new sensor - including Binning and Anti-flicker - provides a 14 Bit signal for red, green and blue colours which is processed in a 16 bit data path. This results in clean colours without noise
or blooming.

Advantages: Small, compact and very easy to use! Disadvantages: Old, not as good as more recent cameras.
Nikon Coolpix S1.
I bought this camera from Curries via their website for £169 back in 2006, so it is relatively old now, and in terms of the advance in cameras, is almost an antique! You can now pick one up for a lot cheaper, around £65, but I think they're being slowly phased out, so if you want one, get it quick.
When I first bought it, 5.1 Megapixels was considered relatively high, whereas now, anything towards 9.1 or 10.1 megapixels is becoming the new bench level. However, unless you are a really keen photographer, you won't really notice too much difference.
What attracted me to this camera was it's looks. It is a lovely little camera, and in black it looks stylish and sleek, whilst also being very compact; there's no extruding lens or other parts sticking out, so the camera is very flat which is extremely helpful as it can ...
