Your World In One.
Nikon 1 <One>
Twenty years ago, the first digital camera was introduced.
Since then, photographs and videos have become dramatically more accessible.
The world of photography and cinematography has evolved from one
that offered people the creative freedom to shoot images or videos they desire,
to one that explores new ways of enjoying their unique digital creations.
To meet today's expectations for imaging, we, at Nikon started once again
from scratch, from zero. We took a completely fresh look at digital cameras
to create the one camera that would satisfy all needs.
We have combined the most advanced functions with operability
that is both simple and universally intuitive. We have balanced excellent portability
with unparalleled image quality. We are not only offering the freedom
to shoot high-quality still and moving images, but also an entirely new way
of visual expression that combines the best of imaging with music.
What’s more, we have overcome the challenges and limitations of
the past to create a game-changing, uniquely different camera.
We introduce the new, advanced camera with interchangeable lenses,
Nikon 1 <One>. Nikon 1 <One> will give you greater creative freedom
and bring to life the joy and excitement you experience.

Still
Your memories come back to life
with photographs, movies, and music
Starting with a clean slate, we reexamined the potential of imaging and discovered a globally unique way
of preserving your memories with something different from just a photograph or a movie. When you press
the shutter-release button with the "Motion Snapshot" mode, the desired moment will be captured as a still
image and also as a movie vignette. The movie vignette will play back in dramatic, 2.5x slow motion to
an original BGM. From fleeting changes in expression to adorable, endearing gestures, or the ambience
of the landscape gently swaying in the wind – you can capture all of these moments more vi vidly and
emotionally through visual expression and with music. What's more, the still images are captured in
high resolution, so you can print them out in beautiful picture quality. The Motion Snapshot has
brought to life new photographic, cinematic expression perfect for capturing your precious moments.
MOTION SNAPSHOT

The world's shortest shooting time lag (as determined by Nikon performance tests ). Measured when using the single-point AF mode and the shortest focal length of a standard zoom lens (1 NIKKOR VR 10 -30mm f/3.5-5.6). As of September 5, 2011.

You can choose any of 73 focus points when using the single -point AF mode from user settings.
We offer two of the world's best features to let you capture special moments
faithfully. First, we present the world's fastest autofocus. The phase-detection AF,
embedded
in the newly developed sensor, will track and capture fast-moving subjects in sharp, crystal-clear focus. Second, we offer the most focus
points in t
he world. The focal plane phase-detection AF with effectively positioned 73 points recognizes the moving subject as a plane to ensure that
images are captured clearly. Because of the Advanced hybrid AF system, the camera will automatically select the contrast-detect AF mode in poorly
lit areas to expand the area covered by the autofocus. With the camera's remarkably quick and smooth AF, you can capture scenes you never knew existed.
Capture the action you never knew existed with the new,
incredibly fast, and seamless autofocus
