Nikon Coolpix AW120 prices and specs
The Nikon Coolpix AW120 was released on Feb 7, 2014 and is available in USA for $244.00
The Nikon Coolpix AW120 is a point and shoot camera. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera has different automatic modes but you won't get pictures of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Coolpix AW120 can take pictures at 16 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the camera will make pictures with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has more portable size. But if you want to make pictures of the best quality check Nikon D5.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/4000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which is rather good for shooting action pictures of a satisfactory quality. The lens is fixed and you won't be able to change it. The lens has satisfactory 5x optical zoom.
Also this model has Wi-Fi which means that the photographer can easily transfer pictures to the smartphone or tablet for example. The camera even has built-in GPS that will allow you to pinpoint the location where the pictures were captured. The Nikon Coolpix AW120 battery life will be enough to make approximately 350 pictures.
