Performance and convenience create a more perfect union with this Nikon CoolPix S80 Digital Camera (Gold)--an advanced point and shoot camera with a super high resolution 3.5" OLED display (819,000 dots) with touch screen controls for operating key camera operations just by touching the screen.
Performance is just as advanced as the convenience: start with 14.1MP high resolution and a 5x zoom lens (35mm equivalent 35-175mm) constructed from high quality Nikon ED glass, add a 5-way optical and digital image stabilization system and ISO up to 6400 for fabulous photos in low-light situations, and, oh yeah, don't forget the 720p HD video. Those are just the high points, of course.
There's also the Smart Portrait system with a Smile Timer to catch your subject's smile every time, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix, which does just that, Face-Priority AF that recognizes and optimizes settings for faces in your pictures, Blink Proof that takes 2 quick shots and saves the one with open eyes, and Skin Softening to improve skin tones at 3 different levels.
Naturally, there's a lot more--17 scene modes to automatically adjust settings for specific situations, macro shooting as close as 2.8", and in-camera editing with Quick Retouch, Soft Focus, Selective Color, Fisheye effect, Miniature effect, and many more, all of it nicely packaged in a camera body only .7" thin. Yep, there're 6 yummy colors for the camera, too--if you care about how things look.
