Enjoy a 40x zoom

A standout feature is the CMOS image sensor with a total resolution of 16.76 megapixels that makes great use of 16MPx. The NIKKOR Lens offers a 40X zoom, which can be expanded to 80x using the Dynamic Fine Zoom. Capture the heart of every action using side zoom control with jump reversal.

Capture all the action at sporting events, take detailed pictures of distant urban landscapes, or of the moon and the night sky. With its proven performance, the NIKKOR lens offers a focal length that’s equivalent to a 22.5mm, wide-angle lens and a 900mm super telephoto lens. This allows for subjects both up-close and far away to be captured without any blurring. The 4-axis Hybrid Vibration Reduction (VR) combines optical and electronic vibration reduction to counteract shaky hands for tripod-steady videos.

Easily capture shots with the retractable monitor

The tilting 3” monitor with 921,000 pixels makes it easy to shoot and take creative compositions. It always provides an accurate preview of what will ultimately be in the photo. The tilted design is very convenient for capturing images or shooting videos from unusual angles. It has a sharp image, quality colours and superb visibility, even when viewed from a slanted angle. The anti-glare, acrylic layer prevents fingerprints and ensures sharp images thanks to its 5 brightness settings that provide perfect visibility, even on sunny days.

Operate the camera with your mobile

With Wi-Fi connectivity and SnapBridge, the camera can be remotely controlled on your smartphone or tablet. Synchronise your pictures with your smartphone and easily share them with friends and family. Also by phone, you can control several camera features or update the time and the device itself.

Easily print out photos

The camera supports the PictBridge standard, which lets you print photos on the printer without using a computer. With PictBridge, it doesn’t matter what kind of printer you want to print your photos on. The printer just has to support PictBridge so that you can seamlessly start printing. Connect the camera to your printer wirelessly using Wi-Fi or a USB cable, and without having to turn on the computer, print out stunning photos in no time and in full quality.

Nikon’s beginnings date back to 1917 in Japan. At first, the company mainly produced lenses - telescopes, binoculars, microscopes and other small, optical equipment. Soon the company expanded its portfolio, producing photographic lenses under the Nikkor brand.

In the field of cameras, particularly among professionals, Nikon quickly gained a reputation as a top manufacturer, which continues today. Its cameras were even included in the equipment of American spacecraft. Nikon designed and produced the legendary Nikon SP 1957, regarded by many as the best camera of all time.
