Summary

Nikon Coolpix S520
Another affordable and very compact all-metal Coolpix from Nikon's 'S' range. The S520 has an 8 megapixel sensor, 3x zoom, a large (but low resolution) 2.5" screen and CCD-shift image stabilization. Otherwise very similar to the Coolpix S210, which scored well in our December 08 group test.
