Nikon Coolpix 3100 prices and specs
The Coolpix 3100 was released on Feb 18, 2003 and is sold in USA for $269.00.
The Coolpix 3100 belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Nikon Coolpix 3100 is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't make photographs of the same high quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The Nikon Coolpix 3100 can make photos at 3 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.7' (5.312 x 3.984 mm) sensor which means that the model will take photos with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Coolpix 3100 is small. And if you want to capture photos of the professional quality check Nikon D5.
The Nikon Coolpix 3100 has max shutter speed of 1/3000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for shooting action photos of a satisfactory quality. The Nikon Coolpix 3100 can even capture videos but the max resolution is not very high - 640 x 480 max 20 sec.
The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't switch it. The lens provides low 3x optical zoom.
