The Nikon Coolpix S6200 showed good results for signal to noise ratio at the lower end of the sensitivity scale. However, at ISO 800 and above this performance drops steeply, making noise an issue.
Dynamic range, while on par with the Samsung WB700, is lower than both the Canon IXUS 220 HS and Nikon Coolpix S8200. However, the results upto ISO 400 still show that it can capture shadow and highlight detail well.
Resolution charts
As part of our image quality testing for the Nikon Coolpix S6200, we've shot our resolution chart.
If you view our crops of the resolution chart's central section at 100% (or Actual Pixels) you will see that, for example, at ISO 100 the Nikon Coolpix S6200 is capable of resolving up to around 22 (line widths per picture height x100) in its highest quality JPEG files.
Examining images of the chart taken at each sensitivity setting reveals the following resolution scores in line widths per picture height x100:
ISO 80, score: 22 (see full image)
ISO 100, score: 22 (see full image)
ISO 200, score: 22 (see full image)
ISO 400, score: 20 (see full image)
