Nikon COOLPIX S5100 review
Style, Speed and Simplicity The new COOLPIX S5100 combines speedy
performance with sleek design producing a stylish, yet convenient accessory
for wherever life leads. Sporting a fast start-up time, a short
shutter-release time and one-touch HD (720p) movie recording at 30 fps, the
S5100 helps to ensure memories are captured as soon as they happen. The
S5100 features a multitude of Nikon technologies used to capture beautiful
nighttime and low-light shots with less blur and noise. These features
include image processing that results in less noise at high sensitivities,
motion detection function, lens-shift vibration reduction (VR) function and
a new flash control system. In addition to must-have features including
12.2-megapixel resolution, a bright 2.7-inch LCD display, 5x Optical Zoom
and a 4-way VR Image Stabilization System with ISO settings to 3200 at full
resolution, the COOLPIX S5100 also adds a new tripod detection function
found on premium NIKKOR lenses. This function detects handheld or tripod
shooting and automatically selects the ideal exposure, ISO sensitivity and
shutter speed in order to reduce image blur and ensure sharp photos. The
stylish design and vivid colour options of the COOLPIX S5100 make it a
perfect expression of one?€™s personality, while user-friendly
features such as the 18 scene modes, Scene Auto Selector, Subject Tracking
and Nikon?€™s Smart Portrait System make the S5100 an easy-to-use tool
for capturing remarkable photos virtually anywhere. The COOLPIX S5100 is
available in purple, blue and black. COOLPIX Technology At the core of all
