Key Features

Newly developed, super high-speed AF CMOS sensor

The newly developed CMOS sensor, with an effective pixel count of 10.1 megapixels, is the world's first image sensor created that implements phase-detection AF.

Motion Snapshot

Starting with a clean slate, we reexamined the potential of imaging and discovered globally unique way of preserving your memories with something different from just a photograph or a movie.

Fastest AF x Most Focus Points in the World

First, we present the world's fastest autofocus.The phase-detection AF, embedded in the newly developed sensor, will track and capture fast-moving subjects in sharp, crystal-clear focus.

IMAGE QUALITY

ACTIVE D-LIGHTING

Get one step closer to beauty as you see it.

If you could capture minute details of light and shadow in high contrast environment, you would have more opportunities to capture remarkable images without disappointing.
Nikon's Active D-Lighting optimizes the balance of high contrast scenes to restore details often lost under strong lighting, allowing you to capture scenes with optimal results.
Matrix metering settings enable you to adjust the exposure to produce natural results for every situation and every subject. By controlling overexposure and preserving subtle features of underexposed areas, Active D-Lighting will create well-balanced results.

PICTURE CONTROL

Demonstrate your photographic expertise by creating customized images

You cannot only capture your special moments, but you can also transform the look and feel of your images, just as you imagine them. Picture Control is Nikon's unique system that enables you to flexibly control and adjust the image settings to suit your preferences. You can choose from among 6 different settings: Vivid, Monochrome, Neutral, Standard, Landscape, and Portrait. With these settings, you can sharpen an image by emphasizing the silhouette, or create a more vivid image by adjusting the saturation.
With ViewNX 2, you can also fine-tune your images even after they have been shot to match exactly what you envision. With simple settings and operation, Nikon's Picture Control will let you transform your images effortlessly and give you greater creative freedom.

FULL HD MOVIE

Capture the best movie and the best shot without missing a single moment

To date, you had to choose between shooting movies or photographs to capture a special moment. With the Nikon 1 , you can now shoot high-resolution still images, while shooting high-quality, full HD movies (1080/60i) simultaneously. The rich power of expression and multiple view angles of the 1 NIKKOR lens allow you to express yourself even more creatively through still images and movies. Even while you are shooting a movie, if you press the shutter-release button, you can capture high-resolution still images without interruption and without changing the mode dial. Whether it is photographs or movies, you no longer have to choose. Both can be yours with the Nikon 1

SLOW MOTION MOVIE

Discover subtle details you could not catch with the naked eye

By controlling the lapse of time, we have discovered a way to expose new fragments in time. With the Slow Motion Movie function of the Nikon 1 , you can delay the lapse of time in your scene, revealing layers of fun and excitement that were previously undetectable by the naked eye. For example, using the Slow Motion Movie function at 400fps you can capture each flap of a bird's wings and at 1,200fps you can capture every spark of a fireworks display. With this camera's Slow Motion Movie, you can make new discoveries everywhere you look.
