The
Nikon Coolpix S8000
The
Nikon Coolpix S8000 is a 14-megapixel compact megazoom with a 10x
Zoom-NIKKOR
ED glass lens on front and a 3-inch 921K-dot LCD on back. It's also
one of the slimmest 10x zoom cameras currently available. Nikon was
late to adding HD video capture to its compact cameras, but that
feature is available on the S8000 as is a stereo mic, which is still a
bit of a rarity. An HDMI
output is built in, too, for quickly connecting to an
HDTV or monitor for viewing photos and movies.
Other features include Optical VR image stabilization, macro shooting
as close as 0.4 inch, and the ability to easily adjust brightness,
vividness, and color hue. There's also the promise of ultrafast
start-up, autofocus, and shooting performance.
Expeed Image Processing ensures high-quality pictures with stunning
color and sharpness. Nikon’s comprehensive digital imaging processing
concept incorporates the know-how and technologies accumulated
throughout our long history of photographic and digital imaging
development and is custom-tuned for COOLPIX. Applied optimized
technologies render natural-looking pictures of incredible quality and
quick response so you won’t miss that special moment.
Intelligent Scene Recognition puts the job of selecting scene settings
in the hands of the camera. The camera will analyse the scene and
automatically determine which of its available scene modes best suits
the conditions. Available scene modes are: Portrait; Landscape; Night
Portrait; Night Landscape; Close-up; Backlight.
