Nikon Intros COOLPIX S1000pj 12-MP Digital Camera With Built-In LED Projector

It's not often that the world of point-and-shoot digital cameras does
something that makes us stand up and take notice. Their innovations
usually fall into the realm of increased image resolution, making the
devices smaller, or adding features that no one really wanted in the
first place like automatic sepia tone control or integrated animal face
detection. Well, Nikon has really done something innovative with their
latest COOLPIX camera, the COOLPIX S1000pj. They have combined a great
digital camera with an LED projector. Now who would have thought?

The Nikon COOLPIX S1000pj is a world first. It combines the great
features found in the COOLPIX line of digital cameras with the ubercool
feature of a built-in LED projector. Let's look at the camera part
first. It sports a 12.1MP resolution camera with 5x digital zoom and
2.7-in LCD screen. It has all of the features one would expect from a
Nikon camera including image stabilization, scene autoselector, and ISO
6400 capability. You can also record movies at 640×480 resolution
and 30fps. Now for the cool part, the projector.

The Nikon COOLPIX S1000pj has a built-in LED projector that is capable
of projecting your images or movies onto any surface (white is
recommended, of course) at up to 40-in wide. Now you don't have to have
all of your friends crowd around your little camera display when you
want to share your pictures with them. The projector sports a 10 Lumens
brightness and will run for about one hour on a battery charge. It also
comes with a projector stand and a wireless remote.

The Nikon COOLPIX S1000pj is available from authorized Nikon retailers
worldwide. It has an MSRP of $429.95 and a level of tech cool that
simply can't be measured. Head on over to www.nikon.com for more info
