The red 1 S1 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 11-27.5mm Lens from Nikon combines a high speed compact mirrorless camera and a wide-angle to short telephoto length zoom lens. The 1 S1 houses a 13.2 x 8.8mm CMOS sensor and the EXPEED 3A Image Processor offering high speed hybrid autofocus and up to 15 frames per second of continuous shooting. The 10.1MP sensor and an ISO range of 100 to 6400 allow for clear, detailed, color-accurate imaging even in low-light conditions. In addition, the 1 S1 features Full HD 1080i video at 60 frames per second. Simultaneous capture allows you to shoot stills while recording video and switch back to video at the touch of a button.

A 3.0" TFT color LCD with 460k-dot resolution provides composition and playback viewing and with Live Image Control you can see the changes you make to settings right on the LCD before you shoot. Best Moment Capture allows you to view live action in Slow View in order to capture the best moment and Motion Snapshot lets you combine a still photo with slow motion video for complete documentation of a moment.

The 1 S1 makes things easy for photographers who are upgrading from point and shoot cameras by offering a simplified user interface, Best Moment Capture and Smart Photo Selector which will automatically select the best image of the 15 frames shot in burst. The 1 S1 also includes a pop-up flash when lighting conditions call for extra lighting.

The 1 S1 is compatible with all 1 NIKKOR lenses and this kit includes the 11-27.5mm f/3.5-5.6 compact zoom lens which is a great lens for day-to-day shooting as it provides a focal length that runs from 30-74mm in the 35mm format. This is a versatile focal range in compact form with a maximum aperture of f/3.5 that allows for low light capture. Its optical design includes aspherical elements and extra-low dispersion glass to reduce aberrations, and its Internal Focusing mechanism means the length of the lens remains the same throughout the focusing range.

The optional WU-1b mobile adapter allows for easy wireless transfer of images from the 1 S1 to your smart phone or tablet and even provides camera remote control from your phone.
