Nikon Coolpix S3 prices and specs
The Nikon Coolpix S3 was released on Sep 1, 2005. For now the lowest price for the camera is $42.99
The Nikon Coolpix S3 is a ultracompact camera. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera has different automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Nikon Coolpix S3 can take pictures at 6 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. The Coolpix S3 has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the Coolpix S3 will take pictures with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it is more portable. And if you want to make pictures of the professional quality pay attention to Leica Q (Typ 116).
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/350 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but still the owner of the camera will manage to shoot pictures of moving objects. The Nikon Coolpix S3 can even shoot videos but the max resolution is not very high - 640 x 480.
The lens is built into the Nikon Coolpix S3 and you won't be able to switch it. The lens provides low 3x optical zoom.
