Nikon Coolpix S550
$230.00
Released June, 2008
The Pros:Decent battery performance > 200 shots. Slightly less expensive than most competitors with this featureset. Good all around performer.
The Cons:Lacks mechanical image stabilization. Fairly slow lag time between shots @ 3 seconds. Basic point and shoot - nothing special.
