Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

With dimensions not much bigger than a credit card, the COOLPIX S1 features a large, bright 2.5-inch LCD screen for a brilliant view of your shots. The streamlined body houses a state-of-the-art 3x optical Zoom-Nikkor ED lens, and with an image resolution of 5.1 megapixels, the COOLPIX S1 faithfully delivers incredibly sharp, detailed pictures. A fast start-up time and quick-fire continuous shooting mode help you catch the moment before it's over.

Getting a sharp portrait made easy by using the handy Face-priority AF function. Simply select the feature in the Portrait mode, camera automatically detects human faces within the red square frame and then provide optimal automatic focus for capturing sharper and more satisfying portraits.

The newly designed slim zoom Nikkor ED lens allows 3x optical zoom plus 4x digital zoom to function throughout its entire range without protruding from the camera body. Zoom in and get closer to your subject.

Nikon's exclusive in-camera D-Lighting function adds light and detail to the dark areas of your pictures while leaving the well-exposed areas as they are. It works in the playback menu after a picture is taken, can be done easily and instantly at the press of the " OK" button.

In-Camera Red-Eye Fix eliminates the annoying problem of red-eye in photos taken with a flash - automatically detecting and correcting red eyes as the photo is taken, so eyes appear natural.

Record a movie with sound at 15fps. There are 4 movie options to choose from. Try out the Time-lapse movie by joining still pictures together to experience for example a spectacular sunset or flowers opening.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, 15 July 2005
    By fu-rin (California, USA) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S1 Digital Camera (5MP, 3x Optical Zoom) (Electronics)
    I researched into digital cameras in depth for few months, and decided to buy this camera for Nikon's renowned photo quality, reliability, large+quality LCD screen, long-life battery, numerous functions (scene selections) and for its stylish body.

    After waiting for nearly a month, my digital camera finally arrived about a week and a half ago. Since then, I had a chance to take photos under a lot of different situations; indoor - bright/dim, outdoor - bright/dim, sea, close-ups, portraits, movements, etc. Close-up function (within scene selections) worked perfectly, even without a photographic talent. Image was crisp and colourful. I took lots of photos of the Sea with Sea/Snow function (scene selection), and again, the photo came out perfectly, describing the joyous scene well. These are just few examples.

    The large LCD screen makes it enjoyable even just to look at the photos. It seems to have slower shutter speed compared to some of the other cameras, according to detailed camera features, but that has not been a problem for me.
    However, I could see that bigger fingers may have problems pressing some of the smaller buttons. - I suggest you go check it out once at a retailer.
    Otherwise, it is just great. I am so glad I chose this camera to Canon or other popular cameras I was considering during the research period.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Poor Indoor/Low Light Performance, 4 Sep 2005
    This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S1 Digital Camera (5MP, 3x Optical Zoom) (Electronics)
    I've had my new Coolpix S1 for a few days now and have to say that I'm disappointed with its performance.

    Whilst the image quality is acceptable for this type of camera in well lit outdoor scenes, if fails to take acceptable images indoors or in poor light conditions.

    I have an ageing Kodak DC280 and a Sony K750i mobile phone with 2MP camera. Whilst the S1 has better general image performance than both of these two, in poor light conditions even the mobile phone takes better, more naturally coloured images with less noise visible.

    The camera only has basic manual settings, allowing configuration of ISO equivalence & White balance.

    The flash on the S1 is weak and does not give adequate illumination in many situations. The Slow Sync mode gives better results. The small form factor of the camera means that it can be hard to hold steady. This can give blurred results, especially with the flash off. Although the camera does provide a warning when this happens.

    There are good points about this camera. The small size and attractive design, the large LCD display, the abundance of scene modes that assist in composing images, etc.

    I find it hard to recommend this camera. It does however seem to get good reviews generally, so would suggest you try before you buy. In my opinion there are better ultra compacts out there.

    3.0 out of 5 stars poor low light capture, 27 Mar 2006
    This review is from: Nikon Coolpix S1 Digital Camera (5MP, 3x Optical Zoom) (Electronics)
    overall i would said S1 is a good product. Big LCD screen, slim and handy.
    however, when it's come to low light or night view capture without using flash, the results is poor. no matter how stable your hand is or even when you lie the camera on something, the result is still blur.
    however,
    during the day time, the results is good . clear and sharp.
    the battery doesnt last long though. if you take around 60 photos a day, you have to charge the battery everynight.
