D-Lighting
Improve underexposed images or shots taken with too much
backlight. Nikon’s unique D-Lighting function automatically creates a
copy with added detail wherever necessary and well-exposed areas
left precisely as they are.
Face-priority AF
Take satisfyingly sharp portraits, no matter where the subject is in the
shot. Face-priority AF* automatically fi nds, then focuses on people’s
faces, enabling you to achieve crisp, clear results time after time.
* Face recognition capability may be limited in some shooting situations.
In-Camera Red-Eye Fix
Avoid the annoying red-eye effect sometimes caused by fl ash.
In-Camera Red-Eye Fix automatically detects red eyes in the
picture, then cleverly compensates for them in-camera for more
fl attering, more natural results.

Combining an exceptionally high pixel count with a 36-126mm
(35mm equivalent) Zoom-Nikkor lens, the COOLPIX P3 and P4 give
great compositional freedom complemented by sharp detail and
faithful color. And with an easy-to-view 2.5-inch LCD each, they
make for smoother shooting and more pleasurable playback.
Nikon wireless image transfer
Built-in Wi-Fi adds exciting freedom to the COOLPIX P3 – letting you
send images straight from the camera to your computer in an instant,
and enabling images to be sent to PictBridge-compatible printers.
Note: Wi-Fi functions require installation of provided wireless software in a compatible
computer. Wireless printing requires optional Wireless Printer Adapter PD-10.
VR delivers rock-steady results
Stabilizing VR (Vibration Reduction) assurance overcomes camera
shake for clearer results. Choose VR Normal mode to compensate
for small hand movements, make use of slower shutter speeds,
produce better pictures when panning and overcome blur in low
light. Or opt for VR Active mode for more unsteady conditions,
which produces satisfying sharp images even when taken from a
moving vehicle.
Aperture-priority Auto mode
The COOLPIX P3 and P4 let you take
greater control over depth of focus, with
Aperture-priority mode. Choose a larger
aperture for attractive background blur or
extend sharpness into the distance with a smaller aperture, while
the camera selects the best shutter speed for optimal exposure.
Unique Nikon image innovations
A choice of three in-camera innovations can achieve better images
at the time of shooting and improve the results after the fact.
