Nikon Releases New L-Series Coolpix Cameras

Nikon has announced it has overhauled its popular L-series (Coolpix) line of point-and-shoot digital cameras with the release of three new models. The 7.1MP L12 includes Image Stabilization technology called Optical VR (Vibration Reduction), ISO sensitivity up to 1600, and a One-Touch Portrait button, while the 6MP L11 and 5MP L10 include 3x optical zoom Nikkor lenses, and improved ISO sensitivity (800 ISO), and a 2.4-inch LCD monitor. These entry level cameras are designed for casual shooters who want to capture images easily, without the need to fiddle with complicated settings. All new L-Series models feature face-priority auto focus, D-lighting which increases light in shadow areas, and in-camera red-eye correction.

According to Nikon the ‘L’ in L-Series stands for “Life,” and they can be added to your life next month, with camera prices ranging from $120 to $200. All models accept SD media and AA batteries.
