Nikon COOLPIX S210 Elegantly slim design blends with high performance to bring greater pleasure to photography and to carrying a camera
January 29, 2008, Tokyo — Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce the introduction of the COOLPIX S210, a stylish new camera that’s a pleasure to carry and a joy to shoot with.
Built on a custom application of Nikon's innovative EXPEED digital
image processing concept and incorporating the precision optics of a
NIKKOR lens, the COOLPIX S210 places advanced shooting functions
comfortably in the hand for greater fun with photography.
Outstanding imaging ability begins with 8.0 effective megapixels of
sharp resolution. It gets even better with its digital image processing
engine that faithfully reproduces fine details and subtle tones,
delivers quick response, and maintains image quality and clarity when
taking advantage of extended light sensitivity settings as high as ISO
2000. And completing the triad is the clarity and precision provided by
a 3x Zoom-NIKKOR lens that covers a practical range from 38-114mm (35mm
format equivalent) to ably capture everything from group shots to
close-up portraits. Electronic VR image stabilization adds extra
reassurance that the results will be sharper and clearer, especially in
lower light or when shooting moving subjects.
As befits a fine photographic tool, the COOLPIX S210 is housed in a
slim, quality-crafted aluminum body with gentle contours that fit
comfortably in the hand. Functional beauty and classic camera appeal
are the theme throughout, from the hairline treatment on the face to
the clean design of the back with large control buttons and the
user-friendly rotary multi selector carefully positioned to provide
intuitive operation.
The COOLPIX S210 will be available in a choice of Bright Silver, Urban
Black, Pink, Light Bronze, Blue, Purple, or Red body colors*.
*Color availability may vary according to region
Note: Specifications, design, product name, standard accessories, and release schedule may differ by country or area.
Nikon COOLPIX S210 Feature Highlights
VR image stabilization
Compensating for the effects of camera shake to realize sharper
results, electronic VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization frees
you to enjoy capturing special moments without worrying about slight
hand movements, particularly in lower light conditions.
ISO 2000 capability provides extended shooting range
Extended light sensitivity range with manual settings up to ISO 2000
makes it easier to take great-looking pictures in lower lighting
conditions, or to capture moving subjects with outstanding clarity.
Automatic sensitivity control is also available, freeing you to
concentrate on the shot while the camera selects the optimal setting
across a range between ISO 64 and ISO 800. And High-Sensitivity mode
minimizes blur by automatically selecting optimal light sensitivity.
Large 2.5-inch LCD monitor for quality viewing and menu operation
The COOLPIX S210 is equipped with a quality 2.5-inch LCD monitor that
features 230k-dots of high resolution, a wide 170-degree horizontal and
vertical viewing angle, anti-reflection coating for better display in
bright situations, and an acrylic panel that prevents scratches and
fingerprints. Improved shooting displays with revised icons and
information feedback help make framing and shooting easier.
