Nikon new pocket size digital compact camera with 12.2 million pixels and a wide-angle 5× optical zoom NIKKOR lens, it can also shoot HD videos and ISO rating 3200 for low light noise free shooting.
S5100 Primary Features
1. Equipped with five functions that enable capture of beautiful nighttime shots in difficult dimly lit or dark surroundings
(1) Low noise at high sensitivities
Optimization of the new image-processing engine, EXPEED C2, developed in accordance with Nikon’s own image-processing concept, offers support for high sensitivities. Superior noise-reduction processing technology reduces noise and ensures excellent image quality in pictures taken at sensitivities up to ISO 1600 with automatic ISO sensitivity adjustment, and up to ISO 3200 with manual ISO sensitivity specification.
(2) Motion detection
The camera detects camera shake and subject movement with shooting, and automatically compensates by controlling shutter speed and ISO sensitivity.
(3) Lens-shift vibration reduction (VR) function
Blurring caused by camera shake is reduced to a degree equivalent to a three-stop increase in shutter speed.
(4) Flash control
High-sensitivity sync:
Enables bright, natural looking photos with less blur, even in dimly lit or dark surroundings.
Wide-area backlighting identification algorithm:
Reduces the number of unsatisfactory shots taken in backlight situations for more beautiful photos.
(5) Hand-held/tripod night landscape detection function
When shooting night landscapes and other nighttime shots, the camera automatically distinguishes between hand-held shooting and shooting using a tripod, and then adjusts ISO sensitivity and shutter speed accordingly. This is the first Nikon camera equipped with the hand-held/tripod night landscape detection function, which enables capture of nighttime shots with less blur. This function makes it possible to capture beautiful photos, as intended, with shooting of nighttime scenes that, until now, have often been blurred.
With hand-held shooting:
By automatically increasing ISO sensitivity and shutter speed, nighttime shots with less blur are possible.
When a tripod is used:
By automatically decreasing ISO sensitivity and shutter speed, brighter nighttime shots with less noise are possible.
