The Nikon Coolpix S9 Digital Camera is a high-quality compact digital camera that packs 6.0 megapixels of resolution, and a range of easy-to-use functions into a slim, stylish and sophisticated wave-surface body designed to help anyone shoot pictures with greater confidence. At the heart of the Coolpix S9 is a 1/2.5-inch CCD that offers enhanced precision and 6.1-effective megapixel image resolution to capture true-to-life color and deliver sharp, fine detail. It also features a 3x Zoom-Nikkor ED lens with a 38-114mm range (35mm equivalent), which gives users broad compositional freedom to shoot anything from expansive scenery to tight portraits, and features an ingenious "right-angled" design that allows it to operate throughout its entire focal range without ever protruding from the camera's slim body
The Coolpix S9 also makes getting great-looking results in challenging conditions remarkably easy with a handy One-touch portrait button that provides direct access to three unique in-camera Nikon image innovations: Face Priority AF, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix, and Nikon's D-Lighting. Adding to the fun and creativity aspects, the Coolpix S9 offers 15 Scene modes that can produce great-looking shots in a wide range of common conditions, with four of the modes also offering Scene assist for better picture composition.
A generous, 2.5-inch LCD not only allows simple composition, but also enables high-quality playback anywhere as well as supporting smoother menu navigation. Another fun innovation featured in the Coolpix S9 is a Stop-motion movie function which makes it easy for users to create their very own stop-motion animated films by taking a shot of the models they wish to animate, move the models, then shoot again. In common with all members of the Coolpix family, the S9 comes complete with Nikon's unique PictureProject software, offering a broad range of powerful features for image editing, organising and sharing and compatibility with a range of plug-ins, allowing users to extend their capabilities as the Coolpix S9 enhances their photographic confidence and enjoyment.
