The Nikon Coolpix S230 Digital Camera provides images with up to 10.0 megapixels of resolution and incorporates a 3x Zoom-NIKKOR glass lens in a surprisingly slim camera body that is quality crafted in aluminum, and delivers high performance and ease-of-operation in a package that you can easily carry around with you at all times.

For incredibly sharp, blur-free images, Nikon's 4-way VR Image Stabilization technology utilizes sensor-shift Optical Image Stabilization, along with the camera's high sensitivity equivalent of ISO 2000, Motion Detection, and the exclusive Best Shot Selector (BSS), to ensure that your photos will always look great - regardless of lighting conditions or subject movement. And Nikon's Smart Portrait System ensures beautiful portrait and people shots by combining Nikon's innovative smile mode, In-Camera Red-Eye Fix, D-Lighting, and Face Priority AF technologies. Furthermore, the S230 includes Nikon's Coolpix Software Suite for organizing, editing and sharing your photos.
