Nikon Coolpix P100 Black

Because it’s all about reach
The COOLPIX P100 features a quality wide-angle 26x zoom, NIKKOR ED glass lens with 26mm wide-angle to 678mm supertelephoto focal range.* The compositional freedom of this versatile reach and range is further enhanced by a 7.6 cm (3-in.) vari-angle high resolution Clear Colour Display that can be tilted as much as 90 degrees upward or 82 degrees downward.
* 35mm format equivalent.

Enhanced image quality with new backside illumination CMOS sensor
CMOS image sensor with a backside illumination structure increases the amount of light that each pixel receives. The resulting improvement in sensitivity and noise reduction makes the COOLPIX P100 more capable when shooting night scenes or in dark indoor situations.

In-camera HDR and enhanced night shooting
The advanced performance of the new CMOS image sensor brings in-camera Backlit Scene HDR (High Dynamic Range) imaging to the COOLPIX P100. HDR merges two different exposures of the same scene to create an image with a range of tonal detail that could not be captured in a single photo. Night Landscape mode also benefits from a function that combines six [TBA] consecutive shots taken at a fast shutter speed into a single, clearer image when taking handheld shots at night.

High-speed shooting capability
The COOLPIX P100 lets you shoot consecutive images in their maximum size (3648 x 2736) at a rapid 10-fps. Other high-speed options include Sport Continuous Mode and the Pre-shooting Cache.

Full HD movies with stereo sound
Record up to 2 hours* of Full 1080p HD movies at 30 frames per second with stereo sound by simply pressing the conveniently positioned button. Both the camera’s optical zoom and autofocus functions continue to be available while filming. A stereo microphone optimally mounted on top of the camera accurately captures the audio.
*Recording stops automatically after 29 minutes. This figure is based on in-house testing standards and stated for recording at 25°C with a fully charged EN-EL5 battery. Actual results may vary greatly depending on factors that include differences in ambient temperature, and the amount of zoom and autofocus operations used.

Five advanced image stabilizing features* help ensure sharper results
Compensating for the effects of camera shake to realize sharper results and contribute to a more reassuring shooting experience, Image sensor shift and Electronic VR (Vibration Reduction) frees you to enjoy capturing special moments without worrying about slight hand movements. High ISO 3200 capability at any image size up to its maximum of 3648 x 2736 pixels allows faster shutter speeds when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects. Motion Detection automatically controls shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for subject movement as well as camera shake. And, Nikon’s original BSS (Best Shot Selector) function automatically shoots a series of sequential frames and saves the one with the sharpest focus.
* The camera selects and uses only the features required to optimize each image.

Four exposure modes P, S, A and M
The Mode Dial provides quick access to the rich creative possibilities offered by advanced Programmed Auto [P], Shutter-priority Auto [S], Aperture-priority Auto [A], and Manual [M] exposure modes.

3-in. vari-angle 460k-dot TFT LCD featuring Nikon’s Clear Colour Display and electronic viewfinder
In addition to its 3-in. high-resolution vari-angle LCD featuring Clear Colour Display with anti-reflection coating, the COOLPIX P100 features the versatility of an electronic viewfinder that further enhances compositional freedom and accuracy under all lighting conditions.

Nikon’s innovative Active D-Lighting function
Enabled during shooting, Active D-Lighting is a unique technology that adds light and detail where necessary while leaving correctly exposed areas untouched to produce significantly improved images with a more natural-looking finish.

Nikon’s Smart Portrait System with Skin Softening
As part of Nikon's Smart Portrait System, a series of advanced functions help produce consistently great portraits. The Skin Softening function ensures smooth skin tone on the face of subjects by leveraging built-in face-detection technology. Automatically detecting as many as 12 faces in the shot, Face-priority AF helps produce satisfying portraits by adjusting focus and exposure. Smile Timer helps to faithfully record precious moments by automatically releasing the shutter when the subject smiles. Blink Warning alerts the photographer when it suspects that a subject has blinked, while the Blink Proof function shoots five sequential frames, then saves the one in which the subject's eyes are wide open. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix automatically corrects perceived red-eye effect before saving the image to memory.

How many megapixels do you need?

Digital pictures are composed of a series of dots called pixels. The more megapixels you have, the more detail a camera can capture which directly translates to how big you can print your picture before it becomes grainy or unclear. Take a look at the chart below to determine your requirements:
