Digital Compact Camera COOLPIX S7c/S7/S8

Stylish digital compacts packing higher quality and innovative functionality into surprisingly slim dimensions.

The COOLPIX S7c offers the additional benefit of built-in IEEE 802.11b/g LAN support. With a Wi-Fi antenna set unobtrusively into its stylish body, it supports wireless image transfer that sends pictures to a computer on command, wireless shooting that sends each shot to a computer as soon as it’s taken and wireless printing to PictBridge-compatible printers^*. The COOLPIX S7c is also compatible with Nikon's all-new COOLPIX CONNECT service that lets users take pictures, then send them to friends across the world in mere seconds. What’s more, it’s absolutely free of charge! Just take the shots, select recipients from the in-camera address list and send them straight from the camera’s built-in Wi-Fi antenna to a local wireless network^**.

Making it easier than ever to get great-looking pictures, the COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 each feature a handy One-touch portrait button that acts as a shortcut to three unique Nikon image innovations – with Face-priority AF^*** automatically focusing on people’s faces for satisfyingly sharp portraits, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix allowing photographers to compensate for unwanted red-eye effects in-camera, and D-Lighting rescuing underexposed images or shots taken with too much backlight. Satisfying shooting is made easier still with a choice of 15 Scene modes.

Extending the enjoyment beyond shooting, the COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 offer the in-camera entertainment of Pictmotion – a function that lets users select their favorite images and movies as well as music and visual styles ready for the COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 to combine them automatically in-camera to produce audiovisual shows that can be enjoyed anywhere on the large built-in LCD. Each of the cameras also features a new Stop-motion movie function that lets users create professional-looking animated movies.

Nikon adds to the photographic versatility of the COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 by supplying the COOL-STATION MV-14 with the S8 and the COOL-STATION MV-15 with the COOLPIX S7c and S7. Handy cradles allowing the camera to be simply slipped in, they allow batteries to be recharged without them having to be removed from the camera. They also each feature a USB port and can easily be hooked up to a TV. Also included is a Dock Insert PV-10 with the COOLPIX S8 and a Dock Insert PV-11 with the COOLPIX S7c and S7, which add immediate direct print performance with ImageLink-compatible printers. And, like all COOLPIX cameras, the COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 come complete with Nikon's unique PictureProject software that makes it surprisingly easy to edit, organize and share images and is compatible with a range of available plug-ins for further functionality.

Nikon COOLPIX S7c/S7/S8 Feature Highlights

Vibration Reduction

The COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 feature electronic Vibration Reduction (VR) capability that allows users to overcome the effects of camera shake to produce satisfyingly sharp images. Taking data from a built-in angular velocity sensor, the system applies in-camera image processing to turn blurred images into beautifully sharp results. The COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 also offer new Anti-Shake and High-Sensitivity modes for clearer, more stable images in diverse situations.

Built-in Wi-Fi capability

With a built-in Wi-Fi antenna that complements the overall attraction of the wave-surface design, the COOLPIX S7c offers the freedom and flexibility of Wireless LAN support (IEEE 802.11b/g). With Wireless transfer, it enables photographers to send pictures from memory to a computer on demand. With Wireless shooting, it lets users transfer each image to the computer as soon as it’s shot. Wireless printing sends images straight through the air for printing on a PictBridge-compatible printer^*. And with Nikon's exciting new COOLPIX CONNECT service, users can wirelessly upload pictures to the Nikon COOLPIX CONNECT server^**. Completely free to use, the service enables a total of up to 50MB of images to be sent to the server and stored there for up to two weeks. It also sends an email to each specified recipient with a link to the page, allowing users to invite friends and family members to view the images right away, download them to their own computer or enjoy them as a slideshow.

Pictmotion and Stop-motion movie

Much more than a slideshow, Pictmotion makes it easy to share the joy of photography with others. Offering entertainment in-camera, it allows users to choose up to 30 images or movies, select one of five soundtracks already in the camera or load new ones to match the mood^*, then select a visual style. The camera then produces a show automatically in-camera – with pace and transitions set in harmony with the music and style. There’s also a new Stop-motion movie function that lets users create professional-looking animated movies. Users simply select objects or models they wish to animate, shoot them, move them, then shoot again. The COOLPIX S7c, S7 and S8 then automatically create an impressive animated film in-camera.

• *Via PictureProject for Windows only; each file up to 3 minutes long.

Nikon image innovations

The One-touch portrait button makes it easier than ever to take great-looking photographs by offering direct access to three Nikon image innovations – Face-priority AF^* that automatically finds and focuses on people’s faces in the frame, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix that detects and compensates for the unwanted red-eye effect sometimes encountered with flash, and Nikon's powerful D-Lighting that can improve underexposed images or shots taken with too much backlight by creating a copy of the unsatisfactory shot with light and detail automatically added wherever necessary and well-exposed areas left exactly as they are.

• *Face recognition capability may be limited in some shooting conditions.
