A New Nikon
Looks like a really stylish and cool new
Point and Shoot from Nikon
(The website is the excellent
Digital Photography Review)
Nikon has today announced it's first ultra-slim digital camera, the Coolpix S1. The S1 has a five megapixel CCD, a three times folded-optics zoom lens (a first in a Coolpix) and a 2.5" LCD monitor (another Coolpix first). The S1 also features some Coolpix technology such as Face Priority AF, in-camera red-eye fix and D-Lighting. The (admittedly pretty stylish) Coolpix S1 will be available in three colors; black, silver and white, it will be out in April at about US$ 380). There will also be a waterproof case available.
Pocket size, decent pixel count for home pictures and very large LCD display. All this for under $400. Looks like another winner for Nikon.
(Still very happy with my D1X and CoolPix 5700).
