Common Features
Magnificent movies. Stunning still images. Capture both at the same time.
With the Nikon 1, you can shoot Full HD movies easily and creatively. And while
shooting a movie, you can capture a high-resolution still image any time by pressing
the shutter-release button—your movie will continue to record seamlessly.
Movie shooting is possible in all modes except Motion Snapshot and best moment
capture. And in advanced movie mode,* you can shoot Full HD movies in any exposure
mode—programmed auto, shutter-priority auto, aperture-priority auto, or manual.
That enables you, for instance, to set minimum aperture and get shallow depth of
field, which is ideal for capturing the emotion in events such as weddings. You can
even shoot Full HD movies at the high shutter speed of 1/1,000—fast enough to
freeze droplets in the spray from a waterfall. And while shooting the movie, you can
capture stills that will be just as sharp.
Once you start using different exposure modes for movies, your imagination will soar.
After you’ve shot your scenes, combine them to make an original movie using Short
Movie Creator or Nikon Movie Editor software.
Use slow motion to look inside a high-speed scene and see much more than your eye can catch alone.
This powerful Nikon 1 feature captures up to 3 seconds of action (2.5 seconds with the S1) at either
400 or 1,200 fps, and plays it back at approximately 30 fps. The resulting slow-motion scene reveals
new perspectives on everything from sports to wildlife to kids at play. The only limit is your imagination.

door to scenes with a variety of close ups and
perspectives. Auto zoom capability allows you to shoot
with greater ease. Perhaps most importantly, the lens is
motor driven so it's super quiet.
