Nikon Coolpix S1000pj

Introduction

Introduction

These days, most of the point and shoot look identical both in design as well as features. So a camera that stands apart with an exclusive feature is sure to draw the eyes. Nikon has brought about a fresh change in the scenario with 12-megapixel Nikon Coolpix S1000pj, the world's first digicam to have an onboard projector.

Design

While the S1000pj is shaped like a typical point-and-shoot, it has two lenses on the front of the camera. One is for shooting, the other for the projector. The camera lens has a sliding lid. The rear houses a button layout and 2.7 inch LCD. The brushed metal surface lends a touch of class to the front of the shooter, though its thickness may bother you a little. That's due to the additional projector components in the point-and-shoot. There is a nice and small stand in the package, which props the camera up for projection and a handy remote control.

The Core Feature

The highlight of the S1000pj is the onboard projector. According to specifications, an LED lamp provides the light for the beamer with the brightness is rated at 10 lumens. You can project the image and video generated by Coolpix shooters clearly on the wall in a dark room. It is easy to activate and operate the projector too. The remote control can control the projector as well as activate the camera, which is a best way to click your own pictures.

Camera features

As for the shooting specifications, the S1000pj has a wide-angle, optically stabilized lens with 5x optical zoom. It is a fully automatic camera without much manual control over picture-taking other than flash and exposure compensation. Capture modes include Auto, Smart portrait, Subject tracking and a range of scene options to choose from. Video recording-wise, the Coolpix manages only VGA quality. The camera has very high ISO settings, but, you get to see noise in the higher ISO images. However, the automatic white balance on the Coolpix is very accurate. All put together it gives some brilliant images for sharing.

Cons

It lags behind in video quality.

The final word

This camera will go down well with the tech-savvy as well as the trendy crowds who want to have a camera different from others. It will be real fun to look at you're your holiday pictures and videos on the wall of your living room with your friends.
