Nikon Coolpix S7c Digital Camera (7.1MP, 3x optical Zoom-Nikkor ED lens) 3.0" LCDProduct Description

Nikon has already introduced its Coolpix S6 digital camera thatandrsquo;s considered a andlsquo;mustandrsquo; for all the photography amateurs! Following the concept of this indispensable small technological jewel, Nikon has conceived a worthy successor- the Coolpix S7c, a real powerhouse of technological innovations.  The Coolpix S7c has everything to pleasantly surprize you and meet even the stringiest demands of the user!  It has the same ultra-compact and seductive design of its predecessor. The S7c also incorporates the Wi-Fi wireless network system and optimized capacities. Once more, Nikon has not made any compromises with respect to the aesthetic and technical aspects of the S7c.  It has a powerful 3x -Nikkor ED lens (equivalent to 35-105 mm in 24x36 format) in a camera that is hardly 21 mm thick. In addition, its CCD sensor has more than 7 million pixels.  The new generation Wi-Fi technology enables the S7c to wirelessly and directly transfer the images through emails. The Pictmotion function, first time introduced in the S6, has been further improved upon which in turn improves the image quality further.  The absence of the view-finder in the S7c is largely compensated by the giant, diagonal 3andrdquo;, lit, anti-reflect ACL monitor that gives you ideal visibility while aiming.  Amongst the numerous features of the S7c, there is a Vibration Reduction system that gives optimal clarity to all picture shooting modes and a stabilized image in slow closing speed, a rotating scroller that has intuitive and quick ergonomy, a D mode lighting and numerous preprogrammed modes. What you get is splendid result irrespective of the condition in which the shot is taken!  It comes with a reception station that recharges and ensures a quick digital camera content transfer from the digital camera to television screen.  High on both- aesthetic and performance, the Coolpix S7c is a complete and par excellence digital camera.

Manufacturer's Description
A slim, sophisticated digital compact camera, the COOLPIX S7c packs good looks and great performance into compact dimensions, while offering the advantage of vibration reduction and innovations for in-camera image improvement.Combining 7.1 effective megapixels of imaging performance with a 35-105mm (35mm equivalent) Zoom-Nikkor ED lens, the COOLPIX S7c can capture everything from wide-open landscapes to tight portraits with outstanding clarity and true-to-life color. And because it features a large, bright 3.0-inch LCD monitor with an unusually wide 170-degree viewing angle, it realizes smoother composition and high-quality playback anywhere. What's more, the camera offers e-VR and other Vibration Reduction capabilities that can compensate for camera shake and unsteady subjects to realize sharper, clearer results. Anti-shake mode can automatically activate e-VR and BSS that selects the sharpest image from up to ten sequential shots, while also setting the optimal ISO for steady results. High-Sensitivity mode also makes the most of the camera's exceptionally high light sensitivity by choosing the optimal setting up to ISO 1600 for the shooting of fast-moving subjects or clearer results in lower light.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 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 features 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 offers 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 to combine them automatically in-camera to produce audiovisual shows that can be enjoyed anywhere on the large built-in LCD. The camera 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 by supplying the COOL-STATION MV-15 with the camera. 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. It also features a USB port and can easily be hooked up to a TV. Also included is a Dock Insert PV-11, which adds immediate direct print performance with ImageLink-compatible printers. And, like all COOLPIX cameras, the COOLPIX S7c comes 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 s7c -Wi Fi5
I really like this camera. It is pocket size, excellent photos and with wifi. I had no difficulty connecting to WiFi, and sending photos to both my computer and to friends via email. Wifi is really great technology. To connect to wifi, it is relatively simple if you known your network information. This information is available on the internet or via your internet provider.

Nikon S7C5
The Nikon S7c is slightly larger than a credit card. This diminutive size means it fits easily into a pocket or bag. The large LCD screen is great. Once you know where everything is just point and shoot for stunning images from the Nikkor lens. This would be a perfect camera to take holiday snaps with, also ideal for concerts. It does have Wi-Fi but this is not a feature i have much use for as the USB cable works fine for me. The S7c has a quality feel about it and i would buy another if anything happened to my current one. No SD card included with the camera though you'll have to buy one separately. I use a 1GB card in mine without any problems.

Impossible to connect2
I bought this camera because I have a nice experience with Nikon products and needed a small camera with WiFi connection. The camera is fair, although I'd prefer more control and less auto settings. Turn on time is better than most other small cameras I've tried but the grip is poor. But the real turn-off is the difficulty to get it to connect via WiFi. I'm reasonably well versed in technology and rarely can't accomplish something, but this one really got me. The manual is laughable and even to get a regular USB transfer took me lots of time to find that you have to change a preference. The bottom line is it's a fair light camera with a great LCD, but if the WiFi connection is important to you, look elsewhere.
