A high-performance 30x (up to 60x*1 with Dynamic Fine Zoom) optical zoom NIKKOR lens
The S9900 is equipped with a high-power 30x optical zoom NIKKOR lens that covers the wide-angle 25 mm to super-telephoto 750 mm angles of view (equivalent focal lengths in 35mm [135] format). In addition to Dynamic Fine Zoom, which enables 60x*1 zoom with which resolution is preserved in the digital zoom range, the camera also supports powerful macro photography of subjects as close as approximately
What's more, zoom photography with which blur is controlled is made possible with a high-performance vibration reduction (VR) function (for still images) that combines lens-shift and electronic vibration reduction for camera shake compensation equivalent to a 4.0-stop*2 increase in shutter speed.
High-performance AF that enables fast and accurate focusing
The S9900 is equipped with Pre-focus AF, with which the camera focuses automatically in situations such as when camera movement is detected, immediately after a face is recognized, and immediately after a subject's face is lost. More certain shooting is also possible with quick focusing on the intended subject in approximately 0.14 s* at the maximum wide-angle position and approximately 0.62 s* at the maximum telephoto position.
An elegant design well suited to a camera
A functional design well suited to a camera has been achieved with adoption of an elastomer on the camera body that looks and feels like leather, and provides an elegant appearance and supports a firm and steady hold on the camera with shooting. The S9900 is also equipped with a variety of features that make full-scale photography fun and easy, including a command dial effective for applying flexible program, aperture, and shutter speed settings, and eyelets on both sides of the camera that enable attachment of neck straps. The S9900 will be available in two chic colors: black and titanium silver.
