Nikon Announced World's First Android Powered Digital Camera - Coolpix S800c, Specs And Features Detailed

(GSM Insider) - Seems like the veteran of camera Nikon going one step earlier than Samsung and launched the world's first Android powered digital. So Samsung isn't the leader of everything related to Android. Today, Nikon announced the Nikon Coolpix S800c.

Lets start with the special features of Nikon Coolpix S800c Android camera. You might ask, can Nikon Coolpix S800c Android camera access to Google Play Store? The answer is yes. You can download apps like Instagram, Google+, Facebook or Twitter and directly share to social networks. This sounds cool!

Here are some of the key features of Nikon Coolpix S800c Android camera:

1. The Android 2.3 and Wi-Fi® support for operation that feels like a smartphone and wireless Internet connection

In addition to superior basic camera performance, the S800c offers the natural operation and communications functions of a smartphone (except the phone function), making it a single product for shooting, viewing, connecting, and enjoying. Nikon proposes new ways of enjoying digital photography with the S800c and the fun it offers with network connections.

Primary functions

- Simple setup and connection

Setup and text input for Internet connection using operations that are similar to those used by Android smartphones is possible. Browse and post to social networking sites (SNS)

- The beautiful still photos and movies recorded with this digital camera, as well as comments, can be posted to social networking sites such as Google+™, Facebook, and Twitter*. Not only is posting to an SNS simple, but browsing them is also smooth and easy.

*Connection to Facebook and/or Twitter requires installation of dedicated apps available on Google Play™.

- Support for Google Play™ and built-in Google™ apps

Users can customize their cameras by downloading favorite apps from Google Play™. This will expand the ways in which users enjoy digital photography. A number of Google apps, including Google+™, YouTube™, Google Maps™, and Gmail™ come preinstalled on the camera.

- Simple image transfer to other smart devices

The camera's Upload to Smart Device app can be used to transfer high-resolution photos and movies to smart devices running the Android or iOS operating system over a wireless connection.

*We plan to release Android and iOS versions of a corresponding app to be used by smart devices.

2. Superior basic performance for shooting of images with superior image quality and definition

It is often very difficult or even impossible to capture decisive moments or telephoto shots with a smartphone. The S800c, however, is always ready for those once-in-a-lifetime images with a level of performance that ensures sharp, blur-free photos. It allows users to easily express themselves in a wide variety of ways as photos with superior image quality and definition can be uploaded directly from the camera to a SNS.

Basic performance

- Equipped with a 10x optical zoom NIKKOR lens with coverage for angles of view for focal lengths from the wide-angle 25 mm to 250 mm (equivalents in 35-mm [135] format), and built-in lens-shift vibration reduction (VR) function

- Backside illumination CMOS sensor with an effective pixel count of 16.0-million pixels enables capture of images exhibiting little noise at the high sensitivities required for night landscapes and pictures taken indoors under dim lighting

- Functions for recording 1920 x 1080p/30-fps full-HD movies with stereo sound (recording of slow-motion movies that play back at 1/2, 1/4, or 1/8 normal playback speed for a dramatic effect, and fast-motion movies that play back at twice normal playback speed for a comical effect is also possible)

3. my Picturetown app for using Nikon's image storage and sharing service, my Picturetown

When the my Picturetown app on Google Play™ is downloaded and installed, images captured with the S800c can be easily uploaded to my Picturetown. In addition, the app can be used to browse uploaded images, or to post a URL to a specific my Picturetown album to Facebook or tweet them on Twitter. It can also be used to view a list of my Picturetown albums, to rearrange albums using drag-and-drop operations, or to change their layout. Since images stored on my Picturetown can be accessed directly from the camera, users can easily view or share them with others, almost as if they were carrying photo albums around with them.

4. GPS function (A-GPS* compatible) for recording position information with images

The high-performance GPS module incorporated into the camera can be used to record position (latitude and longitude) information with photos and movies as they are recorded. When the my Picturetown app is used, the place where these photos and movies were recorded can be displayed on Google Maps™.

*A-GPS, or Assisted GPS, is a system which can increase the startup performance, or time-to-first-fix, of a GPS positioning system by using extended ephemeris (EE) data. The data file used for A-GPS can be updated by downloading the latest file from Nikon's web site.

5. Equipped with a 3.5-inch, approximately 819k-dot widescreen OLED monitor for vivid reproduction of even the finest details

The S800c is equipped with a 3.5-inch, approximately 819k-dot widescreen, OLED touch panel monitor. The high-resolution, widescreen, VGA OLED monitor makes shooting, viewing and sharing photos more enjoyable.

The OLED enables reproduction of deeper, more vivid colors with clear and beautiful blacks in night landscapes, less loss of detail in highlights (blown highlights), and greater contrast.

With a broad color gamut, subjects are vividly reproduced. This broad color gamut enables high-definition display of not only images, but the user interface as well.
