Nikon 10 megapixel digital camera

COOLPIX S230 (Blue)

Slim, compact, and stylish, and with touch screen technology, the COOLPIX S230 redefines the compact digital camera. Its newly designed 3-inch touch screen has all shooting and playback options at one's fingertips. Advanced features such as scene auto selector, motion detection, and smile mode add to the COOLPIX S230's appeal.

10 megapixels, 3x zoom

The COOLPIX S230 features 10.0 megapixels for stunning prints as large as 16 x 20 inches. That's plenty of sharp resolution to capture the finest details, crop creatively, and produce incredible enlargements. The 3x optical Zoom-NIKKOR glass lens provides exceptional pictures and gets you close to the action. The lens is built on a proud heritage of producing precision camera optics that deliver superb color and razor-sharp results.

Intuitive operation coupled with eye-catching elegance

The COOLPIX S230 offers a fun new approach to intuitive operation using its 3.0-inch widescreen touch panel LCD for most shooting and playback functions. You can touch your subject on the LCD to set the autofocus and exposure. After selecting your subject, touch the Portrait One-Touch Zoom button for three-step automatic zoom from the waist up, from the chest and up, or close-up of the face. Touch controls also add a new dimension of fun to viewing images on the amazing 3-inch touch panel LCD from, selecting thumbnail images with your fingers to scrolling through full-size images. Plus, you can use the Paint Function to personalize your images by writing on the screen with the included stylus.

EXPEED image processor

The COOLPIX S230's EXPEED image processor ensures high-quality pictures with stunning color and sharpness. Nikon's comprehensive digital imaging processing concept incorporates know-how and technologies accumulated throughout their long history of photographic and digital imaging development. EXPEED is custom-tuned for COOLPIX and applies optimized technologies to render natural-looking pictures of incredible quality and quick response so you will not miss that special moment.

4-way VR image stabilization

Nikon's electronic VR image stabilization compensates for the effects of camera shake by adjusting shutter speed and ISO setting. This produces clearer, sharper results in lower lighting or unsteady conditions. Motion detection automatically detects moving subjects and adjusts the shutter speed and the ISO setting to compensate for camera shake and subject movement. High ISO 2000 capability gives you sharper results when shooting in low light or capturing fast-moving subjects. This creates new opportunities to take sharper, more natural-looking photos in lower light conditions. And, Nikon's original Best Shot Selector (BSS) automatically takes up to 10 shots while the shutter is pressed and then saves the sharpest image.

Nikon's smart portrait system

The COOLPIX S230 features some great technology to help you get great portraits. Smile Mode automatically releases the shutter when your subject smiles. The camera will detect the subject's smile and will automatically fire the shutter. With Nikon's Blink Proof the camera automatically takes two shots and saves the one in which the subject's eyes are open. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix&trade automatically fixes most instances of red-eye in the camera. You may never see red-eye again. Face-Priority AF is Nikon's face-finding technology that automatically focuses on up to 12 faces in a group portrait. D-Lighting rescues dark or backlit images by improving brightness and detail where needed.

Scene Auto Selector

This handy little feature automatically recognizes the scene in your picture and adjusts the camera settings. Just set the camera to the Scene Auto Selector and the camera changes the settings according to the scene you are photographing, automatically.
