True versatility with a 26x optical zoom, 26mm wide-angle
capability, and superb image quality
Coolpix P100, a new compact digital camera model that offers an
impressive focal range, wide-angle coverage, and exceptional
image quality. Incorporating the precision optics of a Nikkor
lens and the image quality benefits of Nikon's innovative EXPEED
digital image-processing concept, the Coolpix P100 is a tool that
brings flexibility and fun to photography.
A new 26x zoom, Nikkor ED glass lens for the Coolpix P100 covers
a broad focal range of 26mm wide-angle through 678mm
super-telephoto (35mm format equivalent). It even covers macro
shooting ability from as close as 1 cm (0.4 in.). The
compositional freedom of this versatile reach and range is
further enhanced by a 3-inch vari-angle high resolution Clear
Color Display that can be tilted as much as 90 degrees upward or
82 degrees downward.
Nikon Coolpix P100 Feature Highlights
EXPEED digital imaging technology
Nikon's smarter approach to digital imaging technology. From
image capture to processing, Nikon's comprehensive EXPEED digital
imaging concept encompasses the entire picture-taking operation.
EXPEED is much more than a processing engine; it is a revolution
in digital photography.
Backside illumination CMOS sensor for advanced performance
The Coolpix P100 enables images of exceptional quality even when
shooting in night scenes or in dark indoor situations. Thanks to
the new backside illumination CMOS sensor, which increases the
a of light that each pixel receives, resulting in improved
sensitivity and noise reduction.
The advanced performance of the new CMOS image sensor brings
in-camera Backlit Scene HDR (High Dynamic Range) imaging to the
Coolpix P100. HDR merges some images of the same scene to create
an image with a range of tonal detail that could not be captured
in a single photo. Night Landscape mode also benefits from a
function that combines a series of consecutive s taken at a
fast shutter speed into a single, clearer image when taking
handheld s at night. Further extending its potential as a
versatile photographic tool, the Coolpix P100 features high-speed
shooting. This capability allows users to shoot consecutive
images in maximum size 3648 x 2736 (10M) at a rapid 10-fps
(approx.). Other high-speed options include Sport Continuous Mode
(120-fps) and Pre-shooting Cache.
3-inch vari-angle 460k-dot TFT LCD featuring Nikon's Clear Color
Display and electronic viewfinder
In addition to its 3-inch high-resolution vari-angle LCD
featuring Clear Color Display with anti-reflection coating, the
Coolpix P100 features the versatility of an electronic viewfinder
that further enhances compositional freedom and accuracy under
all lighting conditions. The vibrant 3.0-inch 460k-dot VGA
display offers twice the clarity and detail of standard cameras
for stunning image reproduction.
High-Definition movie
Entertain audiences with movies that capture the entire impact
of the scene with Full HD. The Coolpix P100 can shoot up to 2
hours* of Full HD movies (1080p) with stereo sound with its
conveniently positioned Movie-record button. Both the camera's
optical zoom and autofocus functions continue to be available
while filming. A stereo microphone optimally ed on top of
the camera accurately captures audio. The HS movie function
provides the added benefit of movies that can be played
back in slow motion or fast motion.
* stops automatically after 29 minutes. This figure is
based on in-house testing standards and stated for at
25°C with a fully charged EN-EL5 battery. Actual results may vary
greatly depending on factors that include differences in ambient
temperature, and the a of zoom and autofocus operations
used.
Five advanced image stabilizing features* help ensure sharper
results
Compensating for the effects of camera shake to realize sharper
results and contribute to a more reassuring shooting experience,
Image sensor shift and Electronic VR (Vibration Reduction) frees
you to enjoy capturing special moments without worrying about
slight hand movements. High ISO 3200 capability at any image size
up to its maximum of 3648 x 2736 pixels allows faster shutter
speeds when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving
subjects. Motion Detection automatically controls shutter speed
and the ISO setting to compensate for subject movement as well as
camera shake. And, Nikon's original BSS (Best Selector)
function automatically shoots a series of sequential frames and
saves the one with the sharpest focus.
* The camera selects and uses only the features required to
optimize each image.
Nikon's Smart Portrait System with Skin Softening
As part of Nikon's Smart Portrait System, a series of advanced
functions help produce consistently great portraits. The Skin
Softening function ensures smooth skin tone on the face of
subjects by leveraging built-in face-detection technology.
Automatically detecting as many as 12 faces in the ,
Face-priority AF helps produce satisfying portraits by adjusting
focus and exposure. Smile Timer helps to faithfully record
precious moments by automatically releasing the shutter when the
subject smiles. Blink Warning alerts the photographer when it
suspects that a subject has blinked, while the Blink Proof
function shoots five sequential frames, then saves the one in
which the subject's eyes are wide open. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix
Red-Eye Fix automatically corrects perceived red-eye effect
before saving the image to memory.
Four exposure modes P, S, A and M
The Mode Dial provides quick access to the rich creative
possibilities offered by advanced Programmed Auto [P],
Shutter-priority Auto [S], Aperture-priority Auto [A], and Manual
[M] exposure modes.
Innovative Active D-Lighting function
Enabled during shooting, Active D-Lighting is a unique
technology that adds light and detail where necessary while
leaving correctly exposed areas untouched to produce
significantly improved images with a more natural-looking finish.
