Nikon Coolpix P1100

The Coolpix P1100 is equipped with a 125x optical zoom lens that covers an incredible range of focal lengths beginning at the wide-angle 24 mm equivalent and extending to the super-telephoto 3000 mm equivalent (up to 250x zoom is possible when Dynamic Fine Zoom is enabled). As successor to the popular Coolpix P1000 (released in September 2018), a compact digital camera that realised amazing super-telephoto shooting, the Coolpix P1100 offers further improvements in usability.

Just as with the Coolpix P1000, the EXPEED image processing system and high-power zoom NIKKOR lens with outstanding rendering capabilities enable the capture of beautiful images, even with super-telephoto shooting. In addition, Dual Detect Optical VR, which achieves a level of vibration reduction equivalent to center 4.0-stops, effectively suppresses camera shake with hand-held shooting. The Coolpix P1100 makes it easier to enjoy the world of super-telephoto shooting with the ability to capture dynamic images of subjects that are difficult to approach, including birds and celestial bodies. 4K UHD/30p and superlapse movie recording are also supported. Superior operability that pursues ease of use with shooting and support for a wide range of accessories ensure the Coolpix P1100 facilitates diverse imaging expression with super-telephoto shooting.

125x optical zoom for super-telephoto performance that enables shooting at a focal length of up to the 3000 mm equivalent. The Coolpix P1100 is equipped with a 125x optical zoom NIKKOR lens that covers the wide-angle 24-mm to super-telephoto 3000-mm focal lengths. Adoption of super ED and ED lens elements that provide superior chromatic aberration compensation demonstrates outstanding rendering capabilities across the entire zoom range, even with super-telephoto shooting. In addition, Dual Detect Optical VR, which provides a level of compensation equivalent to center 4.0-stops, accurately suppresses the effects of camera shake with super-telephoto hand-held shooting. This enables the capture of sharp and clear images of birds, celestial bodies, and other distant subjects at dynamic angles of view.

Shooting Functions that Support Diverse Imaging Expression

Bird-watching and Moon modes are independent of scene modes, and can be accessed directly using the mode dial. With the Coolpix P1100, the AF-area mode used in Bird-watching mode can now be selected from [Center (spot)], [Center (normal)], or [Center (wide)]. Greater flexibility in framing images and more precise focusing enable the capture of sharper images of birds’ small eyes or their entire bodies that better reflect the user’s intent. In addition, a [Fireworks] option has been added to [Multiple exp. Lighten] scene mode. Users do not have to worry about the blown out highlights that often occur when shooting long exposures and can easily capture impressive clear fireworks scenes in which the brightness of the foreground or the background differs.

Support for 4K UHD/30p Movie Recording

The Coolpix P1100 supports recording of high-definition 4K UHD/30p movies. Users can beautifully record subjects with the power of super-telephoto 3000-mm-equivalent. Frames from movies recorded in 4K UHD format can also be saved as still images to preserve moments that simply can’t be captured with a continuous burst of still-image shooting.

Superior Operability that Makes for more Flexible Enjoyment of Super-telephoto Shooting

Despite coverage of focal lengths up to the super-telephoto 3000 mm equivalent, a weight of approximately 1.410 kg has been achieved, being able to enjoy super-telephoto shooting easier than DSLR and mirrorless camera systems.

Furthermore, the deep grip allows for stable shooting, even with hand-held super-telephoto photography. The camera is equipped with a focus-mode selector that can be used to change the focus mode, even after focus has been acquired, and a control ring that enables the adjustment of settings such as white balance and manual focus.

Support for a Comprehensive Range of Accessories that Enhance Shooting

The Coolpix P1100 is equipped with an accessory shoe and accessory terminal capable of accommodating a wide variety of accessories, such as Speedlights and a dot sight that makes composing images easier with telephoto shooting. Support for Nikon’s extensive lineup of accessories further expands possibilities for imaging expression. In addition, when the optional accessory of ML-L7 Remote Control is connected to the Coolpix P1100 via Bluetooth, the same functions that can be assigned to the camera’s Fn button, for example white balance and AF area mode, can now be assigned to the Fn1/Fn2 buttons on the ML-L7 Remote Control. With the Coolpix P1100, operation of all the buttons on the ML-L7 Remote Control is enabled, further expanding possibilities for remote operation. The ML-L7 is also effective in preventing the effects of camera shake that frequently occur with telephoto shooting and when pressing the shutter-release button for smoother and more accurate shooting.
