 Nikon’s Coolpix 775
Is a Fun Camera
By Tim Boxer
 IKON’S
neat little package, Coolpix 775, weighing in at 6.5 ounces, easily
fits into your pocket or handbag. The ultra-compact unit packs a 3x
Optical Zoom-Nikkor lens and 2 megapixel CCD. With the Coolpix 775,
you’ll never be without a camera.
It is the first digital camera with a one-touch
button that allows you to upload your images from the camera
directly to the desktop.
This camera makes it extremely easy to share,
email and print pictures, and even create online photo albums. You
connect the camera to the computer with the USB cable, press the
transfer button on the back of the camera, and the photos move to
the desktop.
The comfortable side grip lets you hold the
camera for easy shooting.
If you install the NikonView software that
comes with the camera, you can upload the photos to NikonNet where
you can share them via email or create online photo albums.
With the simple turn of the mode dial, you may
choose from one of seven scenes: party/indoor, backlight, portrait,
night portrait, landscape, beach/snow and sunset. You’ll become a
one-touch pro in no time.
The 3x Optical Zoom-Nikkor lens allows you the
35mm equivalent of a zoom range of 38-115mm.
Besides a USB cable for plug-and-play
simplicity, you also get an 8MB CompactFlash memory card, and a
rechargeable lithium-ion battery with charger.
This is a fun camera, and very handy. But make
no mistake: You’re working with the
superior technology of a Nikon brand so you know you’ll be
getting great shots – with the click of a button.
The camera lists for $399.95 at www.nikonusa.com.
