Description:
For carefree shooting and consistently great
pictures.
Nikon is pleased to announce the introduction of the COOLPIX L18, a quality
compact digital camera that combine high performance with operating ease.
The COOLPIX L18 offers simple operational functionality and are equipped with
Nikon's innovative EXPEED digital image processing concept and a NIKKOR lens.
Dedicated buttons on the top of the body make it easy to switch between shooting
and playback modes. The large 3.0-inch LCD monitor offers a bright image that is
a pleasure to view, even outdoors. The intuitive design assures a solid grip
with a balance of flowing surfaces contrasted by sharp edge lines.
The COOLPIX L18 makes full use of their 8.0 effective megapixels capturing
true-to-life colour and gives users the freedom to crop or produce enlargements.
The precision optics of a 3x Zoom-NIKKOR lens covers a practical range from
35-105mm (35mm format equivalent) to capture everything from group shots to
close-up portraits. Extended light sensitivity as high as ISO 1600 prevents
blurred shots in lower light, or when capturing fast-moving subjects.
The COOLPIX L18 features an "Easy Auto" mode where users can turn on the camera
and shoot without worrying about getting the settings right. Automatically
enabled D-Lighting and Anti-shake AE compensate for lighting and camera
movement, enabling users to shoot great pictures without difficult operation.
Easy auto mode and scene modes for carefree shooting
Easy auto mode makes it easier to turn on the camera and shoot without worrying
about settings. Easy access to 14 different scene modes and three movie modes
also ensures shooting that is tuned to give the best results to match the
moment.
Anti-shake AE for great pictures at great ease
The new COOLPIX L18 model allows photographers to take better images with the
new Anti-shake AE. It detects subject movement and camera shake, and
automatically overcomes blur by adjusting to high shutter speeds and higher ISO
sensitivity.
Three Unique Nikon Image Innovations
The COOLPIX L18 features a selection of three innovative functions that improves
the quality of images within the camera. Face-priority AF automatically finds,
then focuses on people's faces for crisp, clear results time after time.
In-Camera Red-Eye Fix automatically compensates to help eradicate traces of the
annoying red-eye effect that can sometimes be encountered during flash
photography. D-Lighting can be applied to improve underexposed images or shots
taken with too much backlight by automatically creating a copy of the image with
detail added where necessary, but with well-exposed areas left completely
untouched.
ISO 1600 capability for better pictures in lower light
Making it easier to take great-looking pictures in lower lighting conditions, or
to capture fast-moving subjects with outstanding clarity, the COOLPIX L18
accurately measures available light to automatically select the optimal
sensitivity setting for the shot between the range of ISO 64 to as high as ISO
1600.
