Effective Megapixels
The effective megapixel count is the number of pixels that actually makes
up the image captured by a digital camera. Images recorded with more
effective megapixels will therefore contain a larger amount of image
information, resulting in higher-level sharpness. See Total Megapixels.
Total Megapixels
Not all pixels record a part of the image. Some are purposely masked off
to receive no light, producing a baseline value from which to calibrate light
received by the effective pixels. The number of masked-off pixels plus
the number of effective pixels equals the number of total megapixels. See
Effective Megapixels.
Nikkor Lenses
Highly respected by leading professional photographers, Nikkor lenses are
renowned for their outstanding autofocus performance, true-to-life color,
high contrast and exceptional sharpness.
Nikkor ED Glass
Lenses made of Super ED glass achieve sharper, clearer images. They
are also more resilient than conventional lenses and offer more consistent
optical performance.
Vibration Reduction (VR)
Refer to page 4.
Electronic Vibration Reduction (Electronic VR)
Electronic VR detects and compensates for minor camera movement
in-camera, adding greater stability during movie recording.
High-quality Zoom
COOLPIX cameras offer ample zooming capability, with performance
extending to 10x zoom with the COOLPIX S4. As a result, they make it easy
to zoom in for tight portraits, for example, or zoom right out to capture
expansive landscapes.
Internal Memory
Internal memory gives you the freedom to shoot images at any time,
even when you’re not carrying any memory media. It also makes it easy
to transfer images between memory media as you please.
Direct Printing (PictBridge)
PictBridge direct print capability lets you conveniently connect your
camera direct to a compatible printer — doing away with the need for a
computer.
Pictmotion by muvee
Refer to page 5.
Stop-motion movie
Making it easy to create animated fi lms in-camera, Stop-motion movie
allows users to shoot models, move them, then shoot them again. The
camera then processes the images to deliver professional-looking results.
35mm 70mm 105mm
Movie with Sound
The ability to record movies with sound lets you capture so much more
of the moment, letting you record voices along with faces, or background
noise to accompany scenery.
Time-lapse Movie
Time-lapse Movie mode creates movies out of images taken using the
Time-lapse feature, which enables users to specify the interval between
shots. Ideal for capturing action taking place over longer durations, it
can be used to produce movies of fl owers blooming, or clouds rushing
across the sky, for example.
TV/Small Size Movie
TV movie mode records VGA-size images (640 x 480 pixels) that fi t
perfectly on a TV screen. Small movie produces QVGA-size movies (320
x 240 pixels).
Best Shot Selector (BSS)
Best Shot Selector automatically selects the shot with the sharpest
focus from a series of consecutive images.
Anti-Shake mode
Automatically activating e-VR and BSS, while also setting the optimal
ISO, Anti- Shake mode can overcome camera shake and produce
sharper shots in lower light.
High-Sensitivity mode
Making the most of high light sensitivity on
selected cameras, High - Sensitivity mode
choose s the optimal ISO set ting for the
shooting of fast-moving subjects or clearer
results in lower light.
