From the Manufacturer

Whether you're headed out for a night on the town with friends or a quick weekend getaway, you'll want to take the Nikon COOLPIX S100 everywhere you go. Ultra-slim and ultra-chic, it offers the features you want in a camera that fits your style. Its 16.0-MP CMOS sensor lets you shoot vibrant images and Full HD (1080p) movies even in low lighting conditions, and its huge, high-resolution 3.5-inch OLED Touch Screen makes viewing and sharing a breeze. The S100 is the camera to be seen with while you're making the scene.

Take it on all your jaunts

Bold, beautiful, ultra-sleek design

The S100 is the ideal combination of technology and sleek fashion design in one ultra-slim camera. It's incredibly thin—less than 1-inch—so it slips comfortably into your pocket or bag. The beautiful, bright 3.5-inch OLED touch screen offers a touch-control interface and innovative features. Uniquely detailed and available in a number of trendy colors, the S100 is the latest fashion accessory you'll want to add to your tech couture.

Brilliant photos in any light

Exceptional low-light performance

Stop settling for those "too dark" and "out of focus" shots taken on your smartphone. The S100 can handle your photo and movie shooting even in challenging lighting conditions. Its 16.0-MP CMOS sensor provides superb image quality, high speed operation and exceptional low-light performance, and its versatile 5x wide-angle optical Zoom-NIKKOR glass lens (28-140mm equivalent) lets you capture group shots as well as close-ups so you don't miss any action on the dance floor.

Brighten any gathering

Huge 3.5-inch OLED Touch Screen

The S100's bold and vibrant 3.5-inch OLED touch screen puts you in touch with your images. Its large size and extraordinary wide viewing angles make it ideal for sharing your photos and videos with a crowd of friends or composing those cool over-the-head shots. Controlling camera functions, focusing and shooting can be performed with a few touches of your finger, and an easy-to-use graphic interface makes shooting and sharing fun.

Get social with movies

Shoot and share Full HD (1080p) movies

Let your friends show off their dance moves, shoot some great sequence clips and then share them on your favorite social sites—the S100 won't miss a beat. It offers Full HD (1080p) movies in stereo sound with touch operation and optical zoom while recording. And viewing them at home is a snap with a mini HDMI connector that offers easy playback on your HDTV.

Match your creative mood

Easy Panorama and a host of innovative scene modes

Getting those panoramic group shots with all your best buds has never been easier thanks to Nikon's Easy Panorama mode. Just press the shutter and pan the camera—the S100 will take care of the rest. It automatically stitches together each frame to produce a high-resolution panoramic photo. And don't ever be afraid to shoot in the dark. The S100 offers a trio of night scene solutions for just those occasions. Night Portrait, Night Landscape and a Backlight HDR scene mode allow you to take great photos at night.

Take your photos to a new dimension

The S100 features Nikon's new 3D image shooting capability making it easy to create composite images that achieve realistic playback on 3D-capable TVs and computers.
