Nikon COOLPIX P60
Solid photographic performance, functional styling and an advanced feature set for excellent photos
January 29, 2008, Tokyo — Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce the introduction of the COOLPIX P60.
Delivering reliability and familiarity within its orthodox design, the
COOLPIX P60 satisfies the traditional camera enthusiast. 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 P60 realizes optimum performance and maximum image
quality.
An impressive effective megapixel count of 8.1 enhances the potential
of the high performance digital image-processing engine for outstanding
image quality, while an improved 5x Zoom-NIKKOR lens delivers yet more
flexibility by ably covering a range from panoramic landscapes to
close-up portraits.
Image sensor shift VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilization
compensates for camera shake or movement by unsteady subjects to
realize yet sharper results. And extended light sensitivity up to ISO
2000 further helps prevent blurred shots in lower light, or when
capturing fast-moving subjects. The COOLPIX P60 also offers Programmed
Auto [P] and Manual [M] exposure modes, enabling the user to enjoy
shooting in a variety of styles.
A functional body design with a defined grip for secure finger
placement allows for intuitive operation including the use of the Mode
dial. Compositional versatility, even in bright sunlight, is achieved
thanks to its electronic viewfinder and a 2.5-inch LCD monitor.
Power is supplied by readily available AA-size batteries, which means
the COOLPIX P60 can be used in virtually any location without worrying
about recharging or running out of power.
Note: Specifications, design, product name, standard accessories, and release schedule may differ by country or area.
Nikon COOLPIX P60 Feature Highlights
Intuitive access to a wealth of practical shooting modes
The handy Mode dial includes settings for two exposure modes that
provide greater personal control over camera operation. Programmed Auto
[P] mode automatically selects the optimal shutter and aperture
settings, while Manual [M] exposure mode provides full control over
both the aperture and shutter speed settings. In addition, the COOLPIX
P60 is equipped with a selection of 15 scene-optimized modes and four
different movie modes.
Image sensor shift VR image stabilization for sharp images
The COOLPIX P60 features the image stabilizing performance of image
sensor shift VR capability. The system applies in-camera image
processing to help overcome the effects of camera shake and produce
satisfyingly crisp results, while also contributing to a reassuring
shooting experience.
ISO 2000 capability for better pictures in lower light
With an extended light sensitivity range from ISO 80 all the way up to
ISO 2000, the COOLPIX P60 makes it easier to take great-looking
pictures in lower lighting conditions, or to capture fast moving
subjects with impressive clarity.
AA-size batteries for shoot-anywhere convenience
Experience the convenience of an AA-size battery compatible compact
digital camera. Thanks to the advantage of being able to pick up a new
set of batteries in virtually any corner of the world, users can shoot
with reassurance, free of any worries about recharging batteries or
running out of power when a special shutter chance arises.
