Camera Overview — Nikon W300

The Nikon COOLPIX W300 is a rugged point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor and designed for active outdoor use. Its water-resistant reinforced plastic body measures 112 x 66 x 29 mm and weighs just 231g, making it genuinely portable without sacrificing durability. On the imaging side, you get a maximum still resolution of 4608x3456 pixels, a burst mode capable of up to 7 frames per second, and an ISO range spanning 125 to 6400.

Video capabilities reach up to 4K at 30fps, with 1080p available at up to 60fps — a solid range for a camera in this category. The 3.0-inch LCD display resolves 921,000 dots, giving you a clear view for framing shots in a variety of lighting conditions. Autofocus is handled by a contrast-detection system.

For stabilization, the W300 relies on Digital/Electronic IS. Connectivity is well-covered, with built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB on board, making it straightforward to transfer images without cables. Storage is handled via SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, and the camera draws power from a single EN-EL12 rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

For anyone seeking a compact, connected camera with rugged credentials, the W300 covers the essentials.
