The Nikon CoolPix S60 is a compact point-and-shoot digital camera designed to be user friendly and interactive. Its touch screen and included stylus allow you to navigate menus and manipulate images easily.
Touching
The touch screen is designed to be touched, so don't be shy. Tapping and dragging across the screen are the two key movements. Tapping selects items from menus and performs actions, and dragging your finger one way or the other goes through the images in review mode.
Stylus
You don't need to use your finger all the time with the touch screen. The CoolPix S60 comes with a stylus (which you should attach to the wrist strap for safekeeping) that can be used instead of your finger. The stylus is great when you need more precision than a finger can provide, such as when using the camera's draw feature, which allows you to write and color over your photographs.
Paint
To paint on pictures with the S60, enter the playback mode and tap the retouch icon on the left (it looks like a chalkboard and pen). From the next menu, tap on the pencil icon to enter paint mode. You can choose from four tools: pen, eraser, stamp and frame. Use the stylus pen to modify the picture. Any changes you make will be saved as a second file, leaving the original image untouched.
