Description — Nikon S100
The Nikon COOLPIX S100 is a pocket-friendly point-and-shoot camera centered on a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor processed by the Expeed C2 image processor. Its most notable feature is the 3.5-inch OLED touchscreen with 820,000 dots of resolution — a generous and vivid display that makes reviewing shots and navigating menus intuitive. The camera's Dual IS system (lens plus digital) works to reduce the impact of camera shake during handheld photography.
Autofocus uses contrast detection with subject tracking enabled, helping maintain focus on moving subjects without manual adjustment. The ISO range spans 125 to 3200, and the camera supports burst shooting at up to 6fps. Video is captured at 30fps and can be output through the Mini HDMI port.
Storage uses SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards. Weighing just 175g and measuring 99 x 65 x 18mm, the S100 is designed to slip easily into a pocket. Power comes from the EN-EL12 battery, rated at approximately 200 shots per charge.
A built-in flash is included for low-light situations.
