Compared to the L14 the COOLPIX L15 adds VR and
an 8.0 megapixel sensor. Its lens equates to a 35-105mm zoom range and it has a
larger 2.8" 230,000 dot LCD (so more of the same, a subtly different price and
another piece of shelf space owned). The camera will be in UK shops from Sept
2007 priced at £129.99
Nikon Coolpix L15 : The Nikon Coolpix L
series is designed to fit seamlessly into your life, with their slender size,
easy to use design and value pricing. Yet these cameras deliver equally
high-quality images. Alike the other new Coolpix models the Nikon Coolpix L15
shows off a new and innovative EXPEED digital image processing concept, which
enables the same fast response and high-quality images as the Style and
Performance Series. The flagship of the Life-series, the Nikon L15, is available
in stylish silver or black. Taking great pictures with the VR equipped Nikon
Coolpix L15 is simple, as this camera is slender, lightweight (91 x 61 x 29.5mm,
125g without battery or SD memory card) and easy to hold with its ergonomic
handgrip.
Nikon is pleased to announce the introduction
of the COOLPIX L15, a quality compact digital camera that combines high
performance with operating ease and the support of advanced features, including
optical lens shift VR (Vibration Reduction) image stabilisation. Built on a
custom application of Nikon's innovative EXPEED digital image processing concept
and incorporating the precision optics of a NIKKOR lens, the COOLPIX L15 is
built to realise optimum performance and maximum image quality.
Offering the full imaging potential of 8.0
effective megapixels, the COOLPIX L15 captures true-to-life colour with enough
fine details to leave plenty of creative freedom to crop or produce beautiful
enlargements. The precision optics of a 3x Zoom-NIKKOR lens covers the highly
practical range of 35-105mm (35mm equivalent) ensuring capture of various
scenes, from panoramic vistas to close-up portraits.
Optical lens shift VR image stabilisation counteracts the effects of camera
shake in lower light or when shooting unsteady subjects to help achieve sharper
results. Active full time, VR also stabilises images displayed on the 2.8-inch
high-resolution LCD monitor for easier framing and more reassured shooting.
Intuitive operation and dedicated controls
ensure faultless command over the performance features of the COOLPIX L15. This
includes the dedicated buttons on the top of the body for switching between
shooting and playback modes. The expansive 2.8-inch high-resolution LCD monitor
offers a bright and large image that makes it a pleasure to view, even out in
the sun. And the no-nonsense design of the body itself assures a solid grip
combined with the inviting balance of flowing surfaces contrasted by sharp edge
lines. The COOLPIX L15 will be available in three body colours*:
Silver, Black and Pink.
*Colour availability may vary
according to region.
Note: Specifications, design, product name,
standard accessories, and release schedule may differ by country or area.

and Commitment
Nikon is celebrating ten years of Coolpix cameras, which have brought Nikon’s
world-class optics, expertise in digital imaging and outstanding image quality
into the hands of millions of consumers. Building on these achievements, Nikon

Nikon L15 digital compact camera - Design
and Optics
“With this new Coolpix line-up, Nikon is offering consumers premium quality
cameras that are so sleek and beautiful that people will want to carry them
everywhere, yet powerful to take greatest pictures. For example, Coolpix S700,
the new flagship of the Coolpix series. This camera offers an amazing 12.1
megapixels of resolution in the world’s smallest and high response camera body,”
said Martina Beckmann, Manager Communications at Nikon Europe BV. “With their
stylish and functional design, outstanding NIKKOR optics, Nikon’s original
EXPEED image processing system, Nikon’s well-engineered vibration reduction (VR)
technology and other Coolpix premium features, there is truly a Coolpix camera
for everyone.”
Nikon L15 camera - Vibration Reduction
Despite its compact size and weight, the Nikon
L15 packs many features that enhance the picture-taking experience. The Nikon
Coolpix L15 camera offers 8 Megapixels of resolution for high-detail images with
true-to-life colour, a 3X optical Zoom-NIKKOR lens that provides the equivalent
of 35-105mm on a 35mm camera, along with Nikon’s exclusive Optical Lens Shift
Vibration Reduction (VR) technology which provides the equivalent of a faster
shutter speed and minimizes the effect of camera shake.
Nikon Coolpix L15 compact camera - Operation and LCD screen
For consumers just concerned with taking great
photos, the Nikon Coolpix L15 includes Easy Auto mode, which lets you just turn
the camera on and shoot without worrying about settings. What’s also making the
Nikon Coolpix L15 easy to operate is its large, bright 2.8-inch LCD screen for
framing your photos, along with separate Shooting and Playback controls.
Nikon COOLPIX L15 Feature Highlights
Proven optical lens shift VR image
stabilisation
Field proven technology originally developed for interchangeable lenses used in
Nikon SLR camera systems, optical lens shift VR image stabilisation provides the
ability to shoot at shutter speeds as much as three steps slower without
blurring the image, whilst also producing a smoother image when shooting.
New Easy Auto mode and scene modes for
carefree shooting
Easy Auto mode makes it easier to turn on the camera and shoot without worrying
about settings. Easy access to 15 different scene modes and three movie modes
also ensures shooting that is tuned to give the best results to match the
moment.
Three Unique Nikon Image Innovations
The COOLPIX L15 features a selection of three innovative functions that provide
the ability to actually improve the quality of images within the camera.
Face-priority AF* automatically finds, then focuses
on people’s faces for crisp, clear results time after time. In-Camera Red-Eye
Fix automatically compensates to help eradicate traces of the annoying red-eye
effect that can sometimes be encountered during flash photography. And
D-Lighting can be applied to improve underexposed images or shots taken with too
much backlight. D-Lighting automatically creates a copy of the image with detail
added where necessary, but with well-exposed areas left completely untouched.
*Face recognition capability may be limited in some shooting
conditions.
AA-size batteries for carefree
shooting, anywhere
The COOLPIX L15 runs on AA-size batteries, a standard battery size available in
virtually every corner of the world. This means carefree shooting anywhere, free
of any worries about running out of power or needing to recharge when that
special moment arises.
ISO 1000 capability for better pictures
in lower light
Making it easier to take great-looking pictures in lower lighting conditions, or
to capture fast moving subjects with outstanding clarity, the COOLPIX L15
accurately measures available light to automatically select the optimal
sensitivity setting for the shot between the range of ISO 64 to as high as ISO
1000.
