Nikon Coolpix Face Detection & Wireless Capabilities
Sharing and Imaging Features Make Digital Photography Easier than Ever Newest Nikon Coolpix Digital Cameras Feature Enhanced Face Detection And Wireless Capabilities
MELVILLE,
NY (August 30, 2007) - Nikon today announced the launch of eight new
COOLPIX digital cameras specifically designed to give consumers freedom
in their picture taking and sharing: that's freedom from wires, freedom
from hours in front of a computer, and freedom from poor photos.
Created in response to the growing demand for advanced photographic
capabilities in an easy-to-use product, the new line of COOLPIX digital
cameras incorporates Nikon In-Camera Innovations and other features to
ensure high quality photos and a great picture taking experience. Nikon
has also created my Picturetown, in conjunction with enhanced Wi-Fi
integration, enabling consumers to easily take beautiful pictures,
email, and store them at the touch of a button.
"From parents
snapping endless pictures of their kids, to taking fun pictures after
work at the club, to composing artistic landscapes, Nikon understands
that consumer's photographic expertise and needs are different, which
is why the latest COOLPIX cameras include a wide array of features and
options for every type of photographer," says Bill Giordano, General
Manager Marketing, COOLPIX for Nikon Inc. "With our advancements in
regards to Face Priority and Wi-Fi integration, Nikon is making it
easier than ever to capture and share great images around the world."
This
latest line of COOLPIX cameras includes an enhanced Face Priority AF
system, which, when activated, can find and focus on a subject's face
before a picture is taken.
Performance will vary by model, but
each COOLPIX camera will be able to find and focus on either five or
twelve faces in a frame, faster and more efficiently than ever before.
Each COOLPIX camera also utilizes a new image processing system, called
EXPEEDTM, for enhanced overall digital imaging performance. Nikon has
also included Vibration Reduction into a number of the new COOLPIX
cameras to ensure sharp and steady pictures by compensating for camera
shake.
As an added value to the consumer, Nikon's new L-series
camera, the COOLPIX L14 has been engineered to offer superior battery
life. The COOLPIX L14 will be able to capture an astounding 1,000 shots
with the supplied pair of AA Energizer® e2 ® Lithium® batteries, the
most of any camera in its class.
Nikon has also continued to
develop its wireless transfer technology with the COOLPIX S51c. Using
the S51c's new, convenient One-Touch Email with the Picture Mail button
and Nikon's new photo storage and sharing service, my Picturetown,
consumers can take advantage of several avenues for sharing their
images and videos. Through my Picturetown, users can e-mail pictures
directly to friends and family, publish pictures to Flickr ®, and link
their photos to blogs and social networking sites. Pictures can also be
sent to a Blackberry ® for viewing. Each S51c ships with six-months of
complimentary T-Mobile™ Hotspot™ Wi-Fi service for digital cameras,
allowing the user to send images and videos to my Picturetown from over
8,200 T-Mobile ™ HotSpots™, nationwide.
In addition, S51c owners
can utilize my Picturetown to securely store up to 2 gigabytes of
pictures and movies, providing a valuable back up to SD memory card
storage. Not only will users be able to access my Picturetown from
their computers, but through a Blackberry ® as well, providing instant
access to their images anytime, anywhere.
The new COOLPIX camera
line-up will be available nationwide beginning September 2007. For more
