HOT UPDATE-
It all began the day mobile corporations thought it'd be nice to feature a camera to phones. And now, Nikon appears to be fighting back with a camera that runs a smartphone OS (OS).
The S800c appears like any point-and-shoot, however with enough metal in its fabrication to appear premium. however its true somebody is that it runs on mechanical man a pair of.3 cake.
Switch it on and you're prompted to attach to Wi-Fi with its inbuilt receiver and established the device with a Google account. The camera latches on to wireless connections simply, and similar to that, you are able to go. Email, browsing, social networking work swimmingly, and also the Play Store permits you to transfer mechanical man apps onto its one.7GB internal storage.
Games like Angry Birds and Subway swimmer cause no problems. And its larger-than-average three.5-inch touchscreen responds promptly to faucets and swipes. however attempt 3D games like Dead Trigger and also the S800c protests by bloody the app, reminding you that it's still a photographic camera.
So what concerning the camera?
Given that it's a 16MP detector and 10x optical zoom, the camera's output is on par with similar shooters. Videos ar shot in FullHD with stereo sound, colors look realistic, and photos ar satisfactorily sharp, although you'd be kidding yourself if you expect snaps like those of equally priced entry-level DSLRs and mirror-less cameras. And compared with superzooms during this bracket, the pic output is nearly identical, that the alternative is between larger optical zoom and mechanical man.
Still, you've got to cue yourself that the S800c isn't concerning the camera alone. it is a device that must be judged together with the apps that it permits you to run. Indeed, with mechanical man at the helm, it becomes straightforward for users to 'build' their own camera by selecting from a large array of pic apps. With Instagram and Pixlr-o-matic on the shooter, we have a tendency to might click a photograph, apply effects, and even transfer it to the web if there was a Wi-Fi affiliation at hand. And seriously, pictures at that time quite digital process look fantastic despite the apps process lower-res downscaled pictures.
On the draw back, lack of 3G capability are often frustrating as a result of you've got to attend until you are in a very Wi-Fi zone before you'll share your digital masterpieces with friends and family.
Also, mechanical man are often a true juicedrainer. The S800c contains a CIPA rating of a hundred and forty shots per charge, however that doesn't take net browsing and apps into thought. there have been times once we found ourselves charging the camera once 40-50 photos. Is it worthwhile or simply a gimmick?
Overall, the Nikon S800c may be a tight 1st try at merging a wise OS with "proper" camera hardware. Its lack of anywhere-internet, however, mars the full purpose of running mechanical man thereon. verity capability of such a camera are complete once developers begin making apps that may method larger-size pictures and cash in of the superior optics and image processors.
Still, once let alone today's apps, the S800c is capable of higher photos than most point-and-shoots, that the mechanical man experiment truly pays off. However, at its value, it falls in need of obtaining our whole-hearted recommendation.
Pros: Runs mechanical man, pic apps; nice build quality; one.7GB storage; sensible touchscreen; inbuilt Wi-Fi
Cons: Expensive; Lack of 3G support; Poor battery life
