  • An extremely portable, compact and slim 19-mm body with a wide-angle 4× optical zoom NIKKOR lens
  • A variety of color options to suit individual style: Black, Champagne Silver, Red, Blue, Orange, Magenta, Purple
  • An effective pixel count of 12.0 million pixels. A slimmer body equipped with a wide-angle 4× optical zoom NIKKOR lens
  • Smart portrait mode for consistently beautiful portraits (Skin softening, Face-priority AF, Smile timer, Blink proof, Blink warning, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix)
    1. Skin softening: Linked to the face-priority function, the camera detects and smoothes skin tones
    2. Face-priority AF: This function enables not only beautiful portraits, but also makes capturing group photos faster and easier
    3. Smile timer: The camera recognizes a face and focuses on that face; when that face smiles, the shutter is automatically released
    4. Blink proof: The camera captures two sequential shots and saves the one in which the subject’s eyes are open
    5. Blink warning: The camera displays a warning message when it detects that the subject may have blinked when the picture was taken
    6. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix: If the camera detects red-eye in the captured image, digital processing is automatically performed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved
  • Four features that effectively prevent or reduce blur caused by camera shake and subject movement:
    1. Electronic vibration reduction (VR): Digital compensation applied with image processing to images in which the camera detects blur
    2. Support for high sensitivities: The camera supports sensitivities up to ISO 3200 for beautiful pictures taken at an image size of 4000 × 3000 pixels
    3. Motion detection: The camera detects camera shake and subject movement with shooting, and automatically compensates by increasing shutter speed and ISO sensitivity. Blur is reduced to a level equal to a roughly 2-step increase in shutter speed.
    4. Nikon’s own BSS (best shot selector): The camera automatically shoots up to ten sequential frames and saves the one with the sharpest focus
  • Scene auto selector mode makes capturing beautiful images worry free
  • Subject tracking automatically tracks subjects to maintain focus
