Description — Nikon Coolpix 4100
The Nikon COOLPIX 4100 is a point-and-shoot compact camera centered on a 1/2.5-inch, 4MP sensor capable of capturing images at 2272x1704 pixels. Its 88 x 65 x 38 mm body and 190g weight make it genuinely pocket-sized, ideal for casual everyday use. Framing is handled by a 1.6-inch LCD with 80,000 dots of resolution or an optical tunnel viewfinder, giving users two options depending on conditions.
Autofocus relies on a contrast detection system. For video, the camera records at up to 640x480 resolution. Power comes from 2x AA batteries, with NiMH cells recommended — a practical choice for travelers.
Images are stored on SD cards, and the camera connects to a computer via USB. There is no Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth, and no image stabilization of any type, and the body carries no weather sealing. A straightforward, no-frills digital camera with clearly defined specifications.
