The slim and attractive way to bring your subjects closer
Nikon design goes beyond slim contours and sophisticated operation by engineering a precision wide-angle 10x zoom, NIKKOR ED glass lens into the thinnest camera in its class.^* With wide through super-telephoto coverage, the creative freedom afforded by this new lens forms a perfect blend with the other creative features of the COOLPIX S8000.
^{* Among compact digital cameras equipped with optical vibration reduction and optical 10x zoom lens as of December 29, 2009 (according to research conducted by Nikon Corporation).}

Four advanced image stabilization features ensure sharper results
Advanced flash control combines with lens shift VR image stabilization, advanced Motion Detection, and ISO 3200 capability at any image size up to its maximum (4320 x 3240), to help ensure consistently sharp results.

Creative Slider is the fun new way to express your creative side
Creative Slider places a rich variety of creative effects at your disposal when shooting in Auto Mode. Adjust brightness, saturation and colour tone using the handy Rotary Multi Selector, all while watching a real-time preview on the 7.6 cm (3-in.) LCD monitor.

High-Definition movie recording
A dedicated Movie button makes it easy to record up to 1.5 hours* of beautiful 720p HD movie with stereo sound and low noise, even in poor lighting.
^{*Recording stops automatically after 29 minutes. This figure is based on in-house testing standards and stated for recording at 25°C with a fully charged EN-EL12 battery. Actual results may vary greatly depending on factors that include differences in ambient temperature, and the amount of zoom and autofocus operations used.}
