Right now you are looking at the new Nikon.
This is the Coolpix S630.
Now, this is the top of the line digital camera in the new S series,
and it has so many features. Starting off with a 12 Megapixel camera.
You have a 7x optical zoom, with a NIKKOR glass lens,
so you can shoot with a wide angle at 37mm,
or also a 260 super telephoto lens as well.
You have the EXPEED processor, which is their new processor.
So you're going to get super and incredible quality images.
You're going to get a faster response, and really natural looking pictures.
You have four-way vibration reduction image stabilization,
I know it sounds like a long phrase, but we're going to break that down for you
when we take a closer look at the camera.
You also have a 2.7 inch high resolution LCD screen.
You have scene auto selector.
You have sports continuous mode, that's a new mode on this camera,
face detection, up to 12 faces.
You have red-eye fix already built into the camera.
Smile mode. You also have this new thing
called blink proof mode, which we'll show you later,
you have D-lighting, which is going to improve the brightness in dark images.
44 MB of internal memory, but also you have SD and SDHC capabilities,
so you can have all the pictures you need.
18 scene modes, including panorama mode,
you also got movie mode on here, and that's at resolution 640 X 480,
or if you want a smaller movie you also have 320 X 240.
And, last but definitely not least, you have a rechargeable battery,
so don't have to worry about getting those AAs in here.
Okay, so let's take a closer look around the camera.
Again, you have your NIKKOR glass lens,
you have a 7x optical zoom, which we're going to show you now,
put this power back on, we were in standby mode,
okay, so we're going to go tight,
it's a nice looking zoom. Really really great if your shooting objects far away.
Okay, so you have your power on and off button right here.
Again your wide and your tight for your zoom up here.
Turn it around, you have a nice little spot, right here,
it's a groove for your thumb, so you can really hold this camera,
get a firm grip on it easily. You have a play back button.
Your mode selection button. Now you have your selector wheel right here.
It actually spins. And you have a dedicated flash button here.
Or, dedicated timer, here's your flash,
and down below is your macro mode. You also have your trash/delete button,
and your menu button. Turning over to the side, right here,
open you up, and hidden in this port
can you see it? There we go.
There is your USB port to plug into your PC.
And, underneath you'll see you have your tri-pod holder, right here,
and open this slot up for your rechargeable battery,
and this is where your SD or SDHC card goes.
Okay? So there you have it. So there's your little tour.
Now, I'm sure your wondering, how do I get to all these features?
Show me around the camera.
And that is exactly what I'm going to do right now.
Okay, so I'm going to turn it over so you can see what's going on.
And, we'll go and I'll show you all the different shooting modes,
and you can get to your shooting modes by clicking this green button right here.
So you have auto mode. So auto mode the camera is going to do
a lot of the work for you. You don't have to worry about setting,
you know, different exposures, or anything like that.
So if you use your wheel you can go down.
Now this is scene auto selector. Okay? Scene auto selector, right here,
with the heart above it, and the camera is going to change
the settings automatically according to the scene.
Now, you can also set the scene yourself. You have 18 different scene modes;
portrait, landscape, fireworks, cuisine,
and you can see them all as we scroll through right now.
And, if you get to this shape right here, this is the panorama assist,
if you want a 360 view, what it does is takes a bunch of different shots,
and it pastes them together so you have this full, you know,
landscape view of wherever you are.
It's definitely a panorama. You know.
Remember we had to make panoramas in middle school?
I remember that. Umm, okay,
so you have voice recording righ there.
So, let's say you take a shot and there's a special memory
you want to remember with that shot, you can just enlist your voice recording.
Okay, so we'll go back up. Scrolling down,
you can choose between smile mode, right here,
I'm sure you've seen smile mode before.
Basically what you do is you hold the camera out,
and I'm going to show you right now, I'm going to select it,
you hold the camera out in front of you
and it automatically detects when you're smiling and it takes the picture.
Okay, we have to zoom out first. There we go.
Alright, can you see? Okay?
Alright it's going to take two.
Okay, now, you're probably wondering why it took two.
Because when you're in smile mode you automatically have this new feature
called blink proof built in. So the camera is going to take two pictures
and it's going to save the best one, where your eyes aren't closed.
It's blink proof. It's a cool feature.
Okay, so let's get out of here. If you zoom back in, there you go,
you hit your mode selection button again, and we're in smile mode,
but if we want to get out of smile mode we can be in sport continuous mode.
And what this mode does is it shoots 11 frames per second,
and it's for fast action. Alright?
So if you are at a sporting event, and you don't want to miss the shot
definitely, you know, use sport continuous mode
and you wont have a problem.
Again, high ISO. You have ISO capabilities on this thing
up to 6400. That's the highest I've seen
in a point and shoot camera. It's essential if you're shooting in low light.
And it will really really come in handy.
Okay, so let's get out of here.
Okay, now we're going to scroll down to movie mode.
Now you have two options here,
you can set your resolution to 640 X 480
or if you want a smaller movie you've got that 320 X 240 option as well,
for uploading to Facebook or YouTube.
And, of you go into your menu, like so,
you'll see you have even more options.
And, again you'll see this electronic VR,
which stands for vibration reduction.
Now, let me just take a second and tell you what vibration reduction is.
because this camera comes with four-way vibration reduction.
First of all, it's going to compensate for shaky hands
by moving the image sensor. Okay. So you don't have to worry about that.
Second of all, you have high ISO capabilities,
that's the 6400, okay,
that's also going to help prevent blurry images.
You also have this thing called best shot selector,
what best shot selector does is it takes, automatically, it takes 10 shots
in a row, and it will save the sharpest image. Okay.
So you have those three things. And last but not least,
you have motion detection.
What motion detection does is it's going to adjust your shutter speed
according to the moving object in the frame.
So, those four things make up
your four-way vibration reduction image stabilization.
Alright, it's really, bottom line, it's going to help you get
crystal clear shots.
Okay, so, moving on, now that you now what VR stands for,
we're going to get out of movie mode,
by clicking menu, and we're going to go into play back mode.
So when you're in playback mode you can scroll through your images,
there's one I took earlier, another one I took earlier,
and if you hit menu, you have a couple different options,
quick retouch, if you go into quick retouch
it will show you, you know, what you can do in a matter of one click.
The camera automatically detects what needs to be improved with the photo
and it does it itself.
Alright, so we're going to go back,
D-lighting, okay, we told you about this earlier.
Let's go back. D-lighting,
now, what D-lighting does is it's going to improve the brightness in dark images.
You can also print your images, you can create a slide-show.
You can rotate your image, you can resize your image.
Again, you can set a voice memo, voice recording,
copy your image, and you're back up to the top.
Now, like I said, this is a top of the line camera.
It's part of the new S series that Nikon came out with.
And, it's really got incredible features on here.
You're not going to take a bad picture with this camera.
It's a great Nikon, and you have that NIKKOR lens.
And, the lens is very important to get incredible quality,
crystal clear images. And that's exactly what you're going to get with this camera.
Okay, so that's all we have right now.
This is the Nikon Coolpix. This is the S630.
Hope you enjoy it, and we'll see you next time.
