Nikon 1 J3new

Don’t just watch events unfold—take control of life with this super-fast Nikon 1 interchangeable lens system camera.

When it’s this quick and easy to make beautiful photos and movies, your creativity flows naturally. The stylish Nikon 1 J3 is smaller and faster than ever before, with second-generation technologies that ensure you won’t miss a single moment. Great features like Motion Snapshot and Best Moment Capture will reward you with unique, detailed pictures of your family’s active lives.

The luxurious, aluminum exterior feels even better than it looks, and the way it performs is even more impressive. The exceptionally fast autofocus system, built-in auto pop-up flash and direct access to unique Nikon 1 features via the mode dial make shooting high-quality photos and movies effortless.

     

      Irresistible design: now even smaller and lighter, this extremely compact interchangeable lens system camera has a finely crafted design that looks stunning and feels solid in your hands. The camera comes in five colors: silver, red, white, black, and beige.

      Full speed ahead: the super-high-speed AF CMOS sensor focuses faster and more accurately than ever before. The 14.2-megapixel resolution and high ISO (160 to 6400) enable detailed images in low light.

      EXPEED 3A: Nikon’s next-generation dual-processing engine processes data at incredible speed for unparalleled performance in any situation.

      Advanced hybrid AF (autofocus) system: exceptionally fast autofocus for spot-on pictures, every time—even in low light. The system switches automatically between phase-detection AF and contrast-detect AF, depending on what you’re shooting.

      15 fps continuous shooting with autofocus: enjoy incredibly high-speed continuous shooting with autofocus and capture full-resolution images at up to 15 fps*, or fix focus on one spot and capture full-resolution images at up to 60 fps.**

      Best Moment Capture: always get the best shot. Smart Photo Selector takes up to 20 high-resolution images and recommends up to five of the best. Slow View captures up to 20 continuous shots and simultaneously displays them in slow motion on the LCD screen, so you can select the exact moment you want to keep.

      Motion Snapshot: bring your stills to life in just one click. The camera creates an easy-to-share “living image” by capturing a moment in time as a short, slow-motion movie that ends on a freeze-frame. The newly-added e-VR (electronic Vibration Reduction) feature corrects image blur for even sharper snapshots.

      Live Image Control: the quick, easy way to enhance your photos before you take them. Instinctively adjust settings to freeze action, tweak lighting, or blur backgrounds—you can preview the results in real time on the LCD monitor before you take the shot.

      Creative Mode: apply filters and effects to still images before you shoot, and access PSAM shooting modes for total control. Enhance the mood with Soft Filter, capture sweeping views in Easy Panorama, and enjoy a world that’s always perfectly lit with Night Portrait mode.

      Movie Magic: get the best of both worlds—capture full-resolution photos (aspect ratio 3:2) while filming a Full HD movie. Shoot in Advanced Movie Mode and enjoy smooth autofocus transitions and crystal clear sound. You can use PSAM controls to determine shutter speed and aperture, and even record in extreme slow motion.

      Built-in Auto Pop-up flash: the easy way to get the lighting right. The built-in, compact flash unit automatically pops up to provide enough light to illuminate subjects up to 6 m away from the camera.

      Wireless Mobile Adapter WU-1b: plug it in and send images from your camera straight to your smartphone or tablet.† Easily share moments with friends and family, upload to your favorite social network, or preview images on a larger screen. You can even use the adapter to control the camera remotely via your device.

      Bright 921k-dot, 7.5 cm (3-in.) LCD monitor: with a wide-viewing angle and protective glass, this high-resolution screen lets you see every detail of your photos and movies—indoors or out.

      Intuitive operation: the easy-to-reach mode dial gives you quick access to shooting modes, while the bright LCD screen displays simplified menus with larger icons for easier operation.

      Expandable system: there are plenty of ways to get more out of your Nikon 1 interchangeable lens system camera. Try out the new 1 NIKKOR VR 6.7-13mm f/3.5-5.6 ultra-wide angle lens and the 1 NIKKOR VR 10-100mm f/4-5.6 all-round zoom lens; get a firm, comfortable grasp with the GR-N2100 Grip, and capture the action underwater with the compact, stylish WP-N2 Waterproof Case.

      Nikon 1 Short Movie Creator: automatically creates short films from your photos and movies. The software is incredibly easy-to-use, and comes with a range of preset visual styles. You’ll soon be creating short masterpieces (up to 30 minutes), complete with titles, credits, and background music.
