  Sure shooting, even in challenging lighting situations

  The COOLPIX S8100 enables you to capture beautiful handheld portraits at night. In Night Portrait mode, the camera first shoots a rapid sequence of exposures at shutter speeds fast enough to capture the background cleanly followed by an additional exposure using the flash to capture your subject. The exposures are then merged into a single composite image, producing a beautiful image of both your subject and the background. It achieves this by combining the image-stabilizing advantages of lens shift VR with the ability of its new backside Illumination CMOS image sensor to rapidly expose and merge a series of shots.

New CMOS sensor helps you capture those special instants.

Quick response and high-speed shooting

The COOLPIX S8100 keeps you ahead of the action with its ultra-fast start-up time, high-speed AF operation, and quick shot-to-shot turnaround. It also gives you the chance to shoot five consecutive images at a rapid 10 fps (approx.) at maximum size (4000 x 3000). Other high-speed options include Continuous Mode and the Pre-shooting Cache.
