Stunning Image Quality in Low-Light Conditions ? Demanding low-light
conditions and creative barriers are no match for the new COOLPIX P300.
Superior image quality in low-light settings is achieved because of the
P300?€™s powerful combination of a 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor, high
ISO sensitivity, and the fast wide-angle f/1.8 lens. The CMOS sensor in the
P300 is designed so that each pixel receives light more efficiently for
superior performance. ISO performance of up to 3200 helps ensure that
images have low noise and amazing clarity while the wide aperture increases
the amount of available light to the sensor. Nikon?€™s EXPEED C2
?„? image processing engine also participates in this phenomenal feat,
enhancing overall speed and performance to deliver sharp and colourful
images. ? Taking Creativity to New Heights ? Designed to give users even
more creative freedom in a compact body, the P300 comes equipped with
several features commonly found in digital SLR cameras such as Aperture
Priority (A), Shutter Priority (S) and Full Manual (M) Control. Easily
accessed through a top mounted control wheel, users are able to capture
images missed by other cameras, while obtaining a desired look and feel to
images by adjusting shutter speed, depth of field, white balance and other
settings. Users can also apply special effects to colours and filter
effects such as a cross screen or fisheye lens. The P300 also includes
Nikon?€™s new Easy Panorama mode, to simply create vertical or
horizontal panoramic shots in-camera. ? Users can quickly and easily apply
these settings, as well as review and share photos on the P300 ?€™s
high resolution 921,000-dot 3-inch, LCD screen. ? The new COOLPIX P300
also features several improved scene modes including Advanced Night
Portrait mode, Night Landscape mode, and backlighting scene mode with an
in-camera high dynamic range (HDR). When Advanced Night Portrait mode is
engaged, the camera captures the essence of night scenes by combining
multiple background shots along with a subject flash shot. In Backlight HDR
mode, the P300 combines multiple shots at different exposures while Night
Landscape mode combines multiple shots taken with a faster shutter speed
for reduced noise and improved tonal range throughout the photo. ? While
image quality and low-light shooting are the COOLPIX P300?€™s primary
strengths, the camera also has incredible video capabilities. The P300
records high-quality full HD 1080p movies at 30 frames-per-second (fps)
with autofocus, stereo sound and the ability to use the optical zoom. With
the P300, users will be able to easily access the camera?€™s video
controls through its one-touch operation. ? Additionally, the Special
Effects mode and a Creative Slider mode will provide more creative freedom
when recording both movies and still images. Users can also adjust the
speed of recording to their movies to apply slow motion or high-speed
special effects. ? @font-face { font-family: "Arial";
