Easy-going excellence that performs all day long.
Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce the introduction of the
COOLPIX L14, a quality compact digital camera that combines high performance
with operating ease while also providing the staying power of long battery life.
Built on a custom application of Nikon's innovative EXPEED digital image
processing concept and incorporating the precision optics of a NIKKOR lens, The
COOLPIX L14 is built to realize optimum performance and maximum image quality.
The COOLPIX L14 makes full use of its 7.1 effective megapixels of imaging
power to capture true-to-life color with enough fine details that it leaves
plenty of freedom to crop or produce enlargements. This pairs with the precision
optics of a 3x Zoom-NIKKOR lens that covers a practical range from 38-114mm
(35mm equivalent) to ably capture everything from group shots to close-up
portraits.
The COOLPIX L14 offers the worlds longest battery life, maximizing the power
of the supplied Energizer lithium AA-size batteries. Using a standard battery
size that is widely available around the world brings a great advantage in that
it means never worrying about recharging or running out of power. Better still,
the energy efficient design of the COOLPIX L14 allows it to shoot 1,000 photos
on a pair of Energizer lithium AA-size batteries.
Intuitive operation and user-friendly controls ensure error-free command over
the performance features of the COOLPIX L14. Dedicated buttons on the top of the
body make it easy to switch between shooting and playback modes. The large
2.4-inch LCD monitor offers a bright image that is a pleasure to view, even
outdoors. And the no-nonsense design of the body itself assures a solid grip
while pleasing the eyes with an inviting balance of flowing surfaces contrasted
by sharp edge lines.
New Easy Auto mode and scene modes for carefree shooting
Easy Auto mode makes it easier to turn on the camera and shoot without worrying
about settings. Easy access to 15 different scene modes and five movie modes
also ensures shooting that is tuned to give the best results to match the
moment.
Three Unique Nikon Image Innovations
The COOLPIX L14 features a selection of three innovative functions that provide
the ability to actually improve the quality of images within the camera.
Face-priority AF* automatically finds, then focuses on peoples faces for crisp,
clear results time after time. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix automatically compensates
to help eradicate traces of the annoying red-eye effect that can sometimes be
encountered during flash photography. And D-Lighting can be applied to improve
underexposed images or shots taken with too much backlight. D-Lighting
automatically creates a copy of the image with detail added where necessary, but
with well-exposed areas left completely untouched.
Stop-Motion animation for more creative fun
Stop-motion makes it easy to create animated films within the camera. Users can
shoot models, move them, shoot them again and, when done, have the camera
processes the images to deliver professional-looking results using the timing of
preference.
ISO 1000 capability for better pictures in lower light
Making it easier to take great-looking pictures in lower lighting conditions, or
to capture fast moving subjects with outstanding clarity, the COOLPIX L14
accurately measures available light to automatically select the optimal
sensitivity setting for the shot between the range of ISO 64 to as high as ISO
1000.
