Answer:

Like keith said, what size card? Also remember that if you are shooting in RAW format your card will fill up much faster. This isn't a bad thing, it just means you should dump your card pretty often. My suggestion? Go buy yourself a bigger card.

Answer:

What size card and what image settings are being used ??
Try formatting the card in camera before using it, this will clear eveything off and leave it empty.

Answer:

You can, but in my case, as soon as i touch the zoom control, it goes out of focus, and, it does not regain focus 50% or more of the time.

Answer:

Problem with Nikon 8100 is that the default flash is too bright.

Is there a way to reduce the flash brightness?

Someone please reply otherwise I am thinking of returning this back.

Answer:

Linda, I hope by now you got your answer. Get an iPad Camera Connection Kit from the Apple Store. The part # is MC531ZM/A and it is about $29.00. Uploading is easy and quick to your iPad (I have an iPad2). Your pictures will look fabulous.

For example if you're using a 4GB memory card and you have the Image Mode set to the highest (14M), an approximate of 650 pictures can be store in the memory card.

The camera has the feature for Red Eye Reduction. Please see page# 30 and 32 of the user's manual for the COOLPIX s8100. Additionally, if the camera detects red eye while saying an image, the affedted area will be processed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved.

Answer:

Try the following: fully chage the battery using the included AC adapter. Put in in a new SD memory and format it. Re-enter the date and time, as some functions work with no date and some do not. Check the position of the rotary dial on top. Register your camera on the Nikon site and download the manual; read the troubleshooting guide near the end.

Answer:

Nikon offers a 12 month warranty on defects. The lens on my s8100 quit working and i have mailed it to them and they are fixing under warranty. The 1-800 number is very easy and helpful to get the process started.
