the coolpix S01: nikon’s smallest compact digital camera

nikon has recently introduced their smallest compact digital camera, the ‘coolpix s01’. built using a 1/3” type CCD sensor providing 10.1 megapixels of resolution, weighing only 96 grams, the device measures 77 x 51 x 17mm in size (3.1 x 2.1 x 0.7"). in order to dramatically reduce size, nikon has chosen to use a built-in battery system and eliminate its SD memory slot by replacing it with 7.3 GB of internal memory for a slim and minimally cluttered package. by removing all dials and controls, a 2.5" interactive swipe touch-screen display replaces the previous layout for an easy and intutive user experience.
