The slim COOLPIX S3000, with a depth of approximately 19 mm, incorporates all of Nikon’s advanced shooting functions in a body size that can be easily carried in a small purse or pouch

An extremely portable, compact and slim 19-mm body
A variety of colour options to suit individual style
An effective pixel count of 12.0 million pixels.
A slimmer body equipped with a wide-angle 4× optical zoom NIKKOR lens

Smart portrait mode for consistently beautiful portraits (Skin softening, Face-priority AF, Smile timer, Blink proof, Blink warning, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix)

Skin softening
Linked to the face-priority function, the camera detects and smoothes skin tones

Face-priority AF
This function enables not only beautiful portraits, but also makes capturing group photos faster and easier

Smile timer
The camera recognizes a face and focuses on that face; when that face smiles, the shutter is automatically released

Blink proof
The camera captures two sequential shots and saves the one in which the subject’s eyes are open

Blink warning
The camera displays a warning message when it detects that the subject may have blinked when the picture was taken

In-Camera Red-Eye Fix
If the camera detects red-eye in the captured image, digital processing is automatically performed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved

Four features that effectively prevent or reduce blur caused by camera shake and subject movement

Electronic vibration reduction (VR)
Digital compensation applied with image processing to images in which the camera detects blur

Support for high sensitivities
The camera supports sensitivities up to ISO 3200 for beautiful pictures taken at an image size of 4000 × 3000 pixels

Motion detection
The camera detects camera shake and subject movement with shooting, and automatically compensates by increasing shutter speed and ISO sensitivity. Blur is reduced to a level equal to a roughly 2-step increase in shutter speed.

Nikon’s own BSS (best shot selector)
The camera automatically shoots up to ten sequential frames and saves the one with the sharpest focus

Scene auto selector mode makes capturing beautiful images worry free

Subject tracking automatically tracks subjects to maintain focus
