Nikon Unveils V1 and J1 Mirrorless Cameras: 10.1MP CMOS, 1080p ...

Mirrorless Cameras are digital cameras that merge the picture quality and versatility of professional Digital Single-Lens Reflex cameras (DSLRs ) with the portability of the popular "point and shoot" digital camera. These ki nds of cameras are distinct from other digital cameras in the marketplace as a system is contained which adjusts the lens effortlessly similar to the more speci alized cameras and as such they are referred to as Mirrorless Interchangeable Le ns Digital Cameras. Mirrorless Cameras, like any other Digital Camera, are powered by Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Batteries. The main advantage of this type of batteries is that they can last very long, but they also take long to recharge. If you have only one battery, it effectively means that can't use your camera until it's charged. Unfortunately, these batteries often have a special shape and voltage, which makes it impossible to replace them with the standard Alkaline batteries you can find in the shops.

Mirrorless Cameras are digital cameras that mix the picture quality and adaptability of professional Digital Single-Lens Reflex cameras (DSLRs) with the mobility of the extensively used "level and shoot" digital camera. These types of cameras are unlike different digital cameras out there as a mechanism is contained that adjusts the lens effortlessly like the extra specialised cameras and as a consequence they're termed as Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Digital Cameras. Mirrorless Cameras replaced the optical viewfinder with an digital one. Nonetheless, some models haven't obtained a viewfinder in any respect, to cut back prices and bulk. Personally, I do not want to rely solely on the LCD show to take my footage, subsequently I'd advocate buying a digital digicam that consists of a viewfinder, or buy a separate one straight away.

Nikon Rumors has gotten its arms on what it thinks are fairly legit specs for Nikon's upcoming mirrorless line . In line with their options, the primary two cameras might be known as the V1 and J1. The V1 could be the bigger-end mannequin, with a extreme-resolution EVF and a multi-accent port. The J1 can have a constructed-in flash as a substitute of the port. Each will likely be 10.1 megapixels with three-inch LCD screens, and can possible be appropriate with a model new line of lenses, the CX system. Nikon has additionally introduced a new class of Nikkor lenses to suit the cameras "1-mount," the first new lens mount launched for the explanation that introduction of the F-mount in 1959, says Nikon. To coincide with the launch of the model new system, Nikon will launch four 1-mount lenses.

Lens adapters have been available for many years, although they never worked too well. This extra distance they added on to a lens implied that the lens would be placed too far away from the camera body, and would not focus at infinity. However because these new type of cameras don?t contain mirror boxes, their lenses are placed much nearer to the image sensor. Therefore adapters, place DSLR lenses more distance away, the very reason they function so well mounted on these small cameras. The lens system for the new cameras is rumored to be labeled CX, a cousin of DX (on lower-cost DSLRs) and FX (for full-frame cameras) that should have a 2.7X crop factor. Four lenses are expected that would include a 10mm f2.8 pancake lens (27mm equivalent), a 10-30mm (27-81mm) f3.5-5.6 for standard zooming, a 10-100mm (27-270mm) f4.5-5.6 all-purpose lens, and a 30-110mm (81-297mm) telephoto. An F-mount adapter is expected to bring traditional lenses into the equation.

Mirrorless lens cameras are mainly speculated to be a bridge between the full sized digital camera and digital digital camera, and a few of the extra compact and less developed cameras. The market for these particular cameras have seen growth over the earlier few years with someplace in the range of 80 p.c since 2009. One more lens system. And in a large variety of colours. Will not it be nearly not possible to promote a pink lens? Is the transfer from a compact camera to this that vital? I don't think I perceive this move. The 1Nikkor lens system uses applied sciences such as the Silent Stepping Monitor and VR II picture stabilization for minimizing digicam shake effects. Purporting to supply a lens for every occasion, the digicam package comprises a acolor-matched 1 Nikkor VR 10-30mm f/3.5-5.6 lens, 1 Nikkor VR 30-110mm f/3.eight-5.6 lens, 1 Nikkor 10mm f/2.8 pancake lens and 1 Nikkor VR 10-100mm f/4.5-5.6 lens.

The system will be titled the "1 system" and feature a model new "CX" picture sensor and mount (to go along with the company's DX and FX full-measurement DSLR cameras). Nikon will offer two fashions at first: the J1 and the V1. The cameras will sport 1/1.7-inch CMOS sensors, far smaller than what is obtainable in the mirrorless Micro Four Thirds and Sony NEX cameras. The 1 system will use a hybrid part and distinction detection auto focus, switching from a 73-level phase-detect mode into distinction detection with AF illuminator in low gentle conditions. These cameras may have a native ISO vary of 100-3200 with a Hello setting out there for a 6400 equivalent.

The J1 is equipped with a 3.0-inch, roughly 460k-dot TFT LCD monitor with broad-viewing angle, and the V1 affords a 3.0-inch, roughly 921k-dot TFT LCD monitor. The monitors constructed into each cameras make essentially essentially the most of an air-gapless development with which the protecting glass and LCD panel are built-in for a thinner design and elevated visibility outdoors. The J1 is able to 10 frames per second (fps) burst shooting with adaptive AF lively, however with the autofocus locked down the J1 can snap pictures at as much as 60 fps - which takes the crown for the world's quickest steady taking footage speed. An individual may additionally permit the digicam to determine on top-of-the-line body from pictures shot and recorded in the camera's pre-cache based on elements like exposure, focus and superior facial recognition by activating the Good Picture Selector mode. If the digital camera's choice isn't to your liking, you will have the chance to choose a favorite from 5 of the perfect frames from the characteristic's image store.

The V1 camera also facilities Nikon's new Multi-Accessory Port for attaching options such as a new SB-N5 compress speedlight, or a GP-N100 GPS module. For those creation movies, a V1 has a stereo microphone submit for veteran peculiarity audio. The Nikon V1 mirrorless interchangeable lens camera is differentiated by its built-in EVF, offering 1440k-dots of resolution as an alternative to the 921k-dot 3.0-inch LCD. Unlike the J1, it won't offer a built-in flash. Instead, an accessory port will accept external flash units. The V1 and J1 will both capture 12 bit NEF RAW files. Designed with the purist in mind, the 1 V1 is offered in white or black.
