A camera for the catwalk: introducing the fashionable COOLPIX S01 (01.09.2012)

 

Nikon Europe presents the COOLPIX S01, a striking microcam that marks the most fashionable addition to date for the COOLPIX range. Even though it has a body smaller than a credit card, its stand-out style makes sure it is noticed. In glossy red, mirror, white, black, or pink, with a 3x optical zoom NIKKOR lens, 6.2cm (2.5”) touchscreen, 10.1 MP CCD image sensor, 7.3GB internal memory and 720p movie, it’s the camera you can use anytime, anywhere.

Nicolas Gillet, Product Manager for Consumer Products at Nikon Europe, comments: “The COOLPIX S01 is irresistible. With its ultra-compact body and feather-like weight, it is unbelievably cute, and yet it packages up enough top-end technology to ensure great photos every time. When it’s tucked away in a bag or purse, you probably won’t even know you are carrying it, but when you do whip it out, the 3x optical zoom lens and the 10.1-megapixel image sensor will not fail to impress. Its easy-to-use touch screen makes it fun to shoot movies with special effects or apply creative filters to photos you have taken. Not only is the camera a super-stylish fashion accessory, it’s also a miniature photo and movie expert.”

Compact beauty
With an in-built battery and 7.3GB internal memory, the super sleek and ultra-streamlined COOLPIX S01 can store up to 3,000 images at full resolution or 3 hours of video in VGA quality in the camera, with no need for memory cards or external charging units.

Meanwhile, the intuitive touchscreen operation encourages you to get hands on, to shoot beautiful images and movies using the 10.1-MP CCD image sensor. From a movie filmed with a nostalgic Sepia effect, to the retro feel of photos given a Toy Camera filter, there are plenty of creative effects to add a unique touch. Large menu icons on the touchscreen make navigation easy and you can customize the home screen to suit your preferences or use one of your own photos as the background image.

Other key features
NIKKOR 3x optical zoom lens (29–87mm): enjoy the benefits of Nikon’s precise lens technology. From group shots to portraits, this lens offers superior photos and movies on the go.

HD movie (720p): record life in high-definition motion with ease. A simple touch of the screen in Movie Mode is all it takes to start recording your movie.

Motion Blur Detection: Motion Blur Detection reduces the effect of camera shake to compensate for camera and subject movement. High ISO (up to 1600) light sensitivity reduces the risk of blurred images with fast-moving subjects or in low-light.

Easy Auto mode with Scene Auto Selector: the camera automatically chooses the optimum scene mode for situation you’re shooting in, so you get stunning results every time.

EXPEED C2: Nikon's advanced image processing system optimizes all camera technologies for quick response, superior performance and maximum image quality.

USB and AC charging: can be charged from your computer with the USB cable included.

The COOLPIX S01 comes in five colours: mirror, pink, red, black and white.
