2011-02-08T10:03:00.000-08:00

Announced : 03-02-2010

The slim COOLPIX S3000, with a depth of approximately 19 mm, incorporates all of Nikon’s advanced shooting functions in a body size that can be easily carried in a small purse or pouch

Price: RSP RM 528.00

FEATURES

· An extremely portable, compact and slim 19-mm body with a wide-angle 4× optical zoom NIKKOR lens

· A variety of color options to suit individual style: Black, Champagne Silver, Red, Blue, Orange, Magenta, Purple

· An effective pixel count of 12.0 million pixels. A slimmer body equipped with a wide-angle 4× optical zoom NIKKOR lens

· Smart portrait mode for consistently beautiful portraits (Skin softening, Face-priority AF, Smile timer, Blink proof, Blink warning, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix)

o Skin softening: Linked to the face-priority function, the camera detects and smoothes skin tones

o Face-priority AF: This function enables not only beautiful portraits, but also makes capturing group photos faster and easier

o Smile timer: The camera recognizes a face and focuses on that face; when that face smiles, the shutter is automatically released

o Blink proof: The camera captures two sequential shots and saves the one in which the subject’s eyes are open

o Blink warning: The camera displays a warning message when it detects that the subject may have blinked when the picture was taken

o In-Camera Red-Eye Fix: If the camera detects red-eye in the captured image, digital processing is automatically performed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved

· Four features that effectively prevent or reduce blur caused by camera shake and subject movement:

o Electronic vibration reduction (VR): Digital compensation applied with image processing to images in which the camera detects blur

o Support for high sensitivities: The camera supports sensitivities up to ISO 3200 for beautiful pictures taken at an image size of 4000 × 3000 pixels

o Motion detection: The camera detects camera shake and subject movement with shooting, and automatically compensates by increasing shutter speed and ISO sensitivity. Blur is reduced to a level equal to a roughly 2-step increase in shutter speed.

o Nikon’s own BSS (best shot selector): The camera automatically shoots up to ten sequential frames and saves the one with the sharpest focus

· Scene auto selector mode makes capturing beautiful images worry free

· Subject tracking automatically tracks subjects to maintain focus
