Nikon Coolpix S70 digital camera - 12 megapixel with touchscreen display

The Nikon Coolpix S70 digital camera introduces Nikon’s newly developed 3.5-inch Clear Colour OLED display with refined touch control that offers a new level of intuitive fingertip shooting control and a variety of exciting playback options. OLED technology delivers the immediately recognisable benefits of vivid colour reproduction, sharp contrast, and absence of afterimages. Nikon combines this with our own innovative Clear Colour Display technology, making the large 3.5-inch OLED stunning. In addition, highly responsive new capacitive touch screen technology adds the benefit of sure and immediate response with the lightest touch of the display’s glass surface.

Advanced new shooting features that leverage the easy fingertip control include Touch Shutter, which, at a single touch, releases the shutter after focus and exposure are locked on the subject. In addition, new on-screen sliders provide touch control over brightness (exposure) and Scene Effect Adjustment.

Touch control also makes viewing and retouching images more efficient. The speed and ease of fingertip scrolling through images is matched only by the fun of using a pinching motion with two fingers to zoom in or out on displayed images, switch between thumbnail and full screen views, and so on.

High-performance imaging capabilities include 12.1 effective megapixels of sharp resolution matched to the compositional freedom of a precision 5x zoom NIKKOR lens that ably covers focal lengths from 28-140mm (35mm format equivalent). Advanced digital image-processing faithfully reproduces fine details and subtle tones, delivers quick response, and maintains image quality and clarity when taking advantage of extended light sensitivity settings as high as ISO 6400.
