Description — Nikon Coolpix S620
The Nikon COOLPIX S620 is a compact point-and-shoot built for portability and straightforward everyday photography. At just 120g and 3.5 x 2.1 x 0.9 inches, its aluminum body slides easily into a pocket or small bag. The 12MP sensor with a 1/2.3-inch size delivers stills at up to 4000x3000 pixels, and the ISO range of 100–6400 provides some room to work in varied lighting. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) helps keep shots sharp during handheld use.
The 2.7-inch LCD handles all composition duties, as there is no viewfinder. Autofocus is handled by a contrast detection system. For storage, the camera accepts SD and SDHC cards, and images can be offloaded via USB.
Video recording is available up to 480p. The camera runs on a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and carries no weather sealing, so careful handling in adverse conditions is recommended.
