The Nikon Coolpix S30 Digital Camera (White) boasts a 10.1 effective MP CCD sensor and EXPEED C2 image processing engine for superior image quality. It's equipped with a 3x optical zoom NIKKOR glass lens with a focal length of 4.1 - 12.3mm (29.1 - 87.3mm 35mm equivalent) for both wide angle and telephoto shots.

Taking portraits is a cinch, and when your subject smiles, the camera automatically captures the image, thanks to the Smart Portrait System. You need not worry about blurry images due to shaky hands, since the electronic VR Image Stabilization system reduces motion blur for sharper, clearer images. Employ Easy Auto mode for those times when you just want to relax and enjoy the moment, letting the camera do the heavy lifting.

Waterproof to a depth of 9.8' (3.0 m) and shock-proof against 2.6' (0.8 m) drops, the S30 is a faithful companion for poolside fun and other outdoor activities. Simple scene modes automatically optimize camera settings for the best results in a given situation or add creative flair to your images. Modes include Point and Shoot, Underwater, Interval Shooting, Highlight Color, Diorama (miniature) Effect, Closeups, Continuous, Food Mode and Soft Focus. Pre-selectable special effects that are fun to use and explore include Soft Focus, Selective Color and Miniature. There are also effects that are applicable after the still shot has been captured, such as Soft, Selective Color, Cross Screen, Fisheye, Miniature, Color options (vivid, black and white, sepia, cyanotype) and more!

The camera is powered by 2x AA batteries (included).
