After 40 pictures, we got a 'lens error' message when using this camera. However, the 40 pictures we took were really good ones. We were still under the 30 day warranty and Nikon had no problems fixing the camera. When it was returned to us, we were able to use it for six weeks before we got another 'lens error' message. No longer under warranty, so can't afford to fix something when the fix isn't going to solve the problem. I did get a 'lens error' message once when I accidentally pushed both of the buttons on the top (the shutter button and the on/off switch are located very close to one another), but shutting it off and taking out the battery saved that mistake. We homeschool our kids, so I'm hoping we can just add this to the 'crappy digital camera' pile and let the kids dissect it and turn it into something useful some day.
Note: the camera is unusable when it gets the 'lens error message' and you can rarely fix this yourself.
At about $1.89 per picture taken, I'd say that this is not an affordable camera. Don't buy it.Get more detail about Nikon Coolpix S200 7.1MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom.
