Nikon S520
Nikon’s been cashing on its slim design compact cameras for quite some time now and after releasing those slim wavy design cameras Nikon adds one more to their S-series stable. The Nikon Coolpix S9 is what we have. Let’s have a look at how it performs.
The design follows the same curvy and wavy flow of the camera body and folded optics as in other S-series cameras. It measures 90.5 x 58 x 20.4 mm and weighs only 115 grams; which makes the S9 one of the smallest and lightest S-series cameras. The camera offers 8.0 effective megapixels of sharp resolution, quick response, and maintains image quality and clarity with sensitivity settings as high as ISO 2000. It also includes the precision and clarity of a 3x Zoom-NIKKOR lens featuring Nikon’s optical lens shift VR image stabilization. It’s also rather cute if that sways your decision one way or the other.
A 2.5″ screen with 153k dots occupies the rear of the camera along with the typical Coolpix array of buttons and you can choose your favorite three scene modes for quicker access. Obviously an array of different colors will be available if the pictured ‘Urban Black’ doesn’t tickle your fancy. Unique new functions of the COOLPIX S520 provide easier ways to express the scene and organize results. Food mode is a new scene mode selection enabling beautiful close-ups of food at high ISO settings in restaurants and other locations where flash photography is not always permitted. Another new feature allows users to select their favorite three of 16 available scene modes to appear in the Mode menu for much easier access.
Easy in-camera image organization allows favorite pictures to be saved in individual albums. The COOLPIX S520 has a quality-crafted aluminum body that fits comfortably in the hand. From the hairline treatment on the face to the design of the back and cable connectors hidden along the bottom, the compact body conveys functional beauty and classic appeal. The COOLPIX S520 is available in a choice of Light Bronze, Urban Black, Purple, Pink, or Magenta body colors. Optical lens shift Vibration Reduction is field proven technology developed for Nikon SLR camera lenses.
The VR system counteracts camera shake in low light or when shooting moving subjects, providing the ability to shoot at shutter speeds as much as three steps slower without blurring the picture quality. VR also stabilizes images displayed on the 2.5-inch high-resolution LCD monitor for easier framing and more reassured shooting. The camera has a high quality 2.5-inch LCD monitor with anti-reflection coating for better display in bright situations as well. Improved shooting displays with revised icons and information feedback help make framing and shooting much simpler.
To sum it up, the NIKON COOLPIX S520 is a fantastic digital camera and I would greatly encourage people to consider this camera.
