Overview
Combining the portability of a compact camera with DSLR performance, now you can take professional shots anytime and anywhere.
Equipped with a large, DX-format 16.2-megapixel CMOS sensor (23.6 x 15.6 mm) and an EXPEED 2 image processing engine, the COOLPIX A features DSLR technology in compact format.
The NIKKOR fixed wide-angle 18.5 mm f/2.8 lens (28mm equivalent) offers high definition from the center to the extreme corners of the image, and a manual focus ring allows you to override auto focus if the mood takes you.
The COOLPIX A also supports 14 bits compressed RAW (NEF) image data, enabling you to adjust pure, unprocessed images in-camera.
The COOLPIX A — The professional choice of compact camera
16.2 megapixel DX-format CMOS image sensor (23.6 x 15.6 mm)
This highly sensitive sensor delivers lifelike images with vivid colors, reduced noise and smooth tonal gradations.
EXPEED 2 image processing engine
The DSLR-standard EXPEED 2 optimizes camera technologies for superior performance and maximum image quality, with minimal energy consumption.
Manual/auto focus
The focusing ring enables manual focus and manual override when in Auto focus mode.
Full HD (1080p) movie recording
In 30, 25 or 24 fps and in stereo, via the built-in stereo microphone.
Large 7.5-cm (3.0-in.) 921k-dot, high-resolution LCD monitor
Makes it easy to view feature menus and a pleasure to review and edit your photos and movies.
Mode dial with manual exposure modes (P/S/A/M) and 2 User modes
To recall your preferred camera settings instantly.
NIKKOR fixed wide-angle 18.5 mm f/2.8 lens (28mm equivalent): offers high definition throughout the entire aperture range and minimizes optical aberrations.
High ISO (100-6400) light sensitivity (manually extendable up to 25600 using the Hi 2 setting): enables faster shutter speeds for finely detailed images with minimal noise.
Wi-Fi compatible: use Wi-Fi to transfer your high-quality images and movies to your smart device* via an optional Wi-Fi dongle (WU-1a).
RAW (NEF) data processing: supports 14 bits compressed RAW (Nikon Electronic Format) image data, enabling you to process and adjust unadulterated images in-camera.
Durable design: boasts a high-quality and tough, yet light, body with a magnesium alloy top cover.
Advanced GUI: employs a graphical user interface (GUI) inherited from Nikon’s D-SLR range.
Active D-Lighting: capture more detail in high-contrast conditions. Select from six different levels to optimize high-contrast images by restoring shadow and highlight details lost in strong light.
Picture Control: allows you to adjust the contrast and color settings (Standard, Neutral, Vivid, Monochrome, Portrait, Landscape, Custom) to match your situation.
Customizable function buttons: two buttons allow you to bypass the menu by creating shortcuts to your favorite camera settings.
Continuous shooting at 4 fps: capture fast-moving action at 4 frames per second.
Retouch menu: enhance your photos on the spot with a wide range of filter effects. Examples include Selective Color, which converts your image to monochrome and then adds a splash of the color of your choice, while Cross Screen adds a starry effect to bright objects.
Optional external optical viewfinder: for those who prefer a traditional viewfinder, this optional attachment (DF-CP1) can be an alternative to the LCD screen. The ‘hot shoe’ can also be used to attach a more powerful External Speedlight flash unit.
Compatible with Optional GPS (GPS-1): allowing you to record the exact location (latitude and longitude) of images as a ‘geotag’.
UR-E24 adaptor ring: enables you to create different effects by attaching lens filters (46mm) or a lens hood (HN-CP18) to reduce peripheral light.
SD card compatible: increase storage capacity by using SD cards (SDHC, SDXC and UHS-I compliant) to save your images and movies.
