Passport? Check. Ten-language phrase book? Check. Nikon S9300 camera? Triple-check. Nikon's Coolpix S9300 Digital Camera (Black)
was born to travel--with you. A 16MP CMOS sensor and a sharp 18x Nikkor
25-450mm (equivalent in 35mm format) in a tiny
(2.5x4.3x1.3"/6.2x10.8x3.06cm) and featherweight (7.6 oz/214g) body =
the ultimate compact travel camera. The CMOS sensor gives
you greatly improved low-light performance and reduced noise, and the
25-450mm lens can easily handle any situation you encounter, from ultra
wide-angle landscape to portraits to unapproachable wildlife. Optical VR
image stabilization keeps your photos rock solid, without any shaking
or blurring, even using the longest telephoto settings, or in low-light,
slow shutter speed situations. The high-resolution 921K-dot 3" monitor
is crisp and clear, for composing and reviewing your images. Dazzling
full 1080p HD video with stereo sound will bring your memories back in
pristine condition (you can even take a still photo while shooting
video). And the S9300 knows how to turn even dicey lighting situations
into great images, with modes like Night Landscape, Night Portrait, and
Backlighting HDR. A built-in neutral density filter gives you even
greater latitude in daylight shooting. Built-in GPS records your
shooting locations and tracks the route you take. A map displays your
current location while shooting, plus Points of Interest (POI)
locations--an electronic compass displays the camera's orientation when
the photo was taken and records the location for viewing later on your
computer. 17 Scene modes provide optimal settings for common
photographic subjects. In-camera processing offers you lots of creative
choices without using image-processing software: filter effects like
Nostalgic Sepia; High-Contrast Monochrome; Selective Color; High Key;
Low Key; and Soft Effect; the ability to crop and re-size photos
in-camera; D-Lighting for improving high-contrast scenes; and skin
softening for improved portraits. The EXPEED C2 processor delivers
improved image quality and processing speed. So, wherever you go with
the S9300, there you are--ready to bring back great images, no matter
what the conditions.
