Nikon 1

Full speed ahead

More than just a new type of

camera, the ever-expanding

Nikon 1 lineup oers a whole new

way to capture the speed of life.

Delivering intelligence and beauty

at world-beating speeds, our small,

fast, and powerful Nikon 1 system

cameras make it easy to vividly

catch the memorable moments in

your nonstop life.

Thanks to Nikon’s next-generation

EXPEED 3A dual image

processor, data is processed

incredibly quickly. Performance

is exceptionally fast, which lets

you shoot amazing images and

Full HD movies in exciting new

ways. Meanwhile, wireless transfer

methods let you share the high-

quality photos you shoot.

The super-high-speed CMOS sensor

boasts a high megapixel count and ISO

light sensitivity for more detailed shots

in low light. Nikon’s advanced hybrid

autofocus system delivers the world’s

shortest release time lag1

, and features

stunningly accurate autofocus tracking for

wide coverage across the frame. Features

like Motion Snapshot and Best Moment

Capture make the most of the camera’s

phenomenal speed and reward you with

unique images of your active life.

On top of these technological advances,

the irresistible Nikon 1 AW1 joins the

range with a waterproof, shockproof,

dustproof, and freeze-proof construction!

With a tough stainless steel front panel,

it looks stunning and feels solid in your

hands, plus you can take it anywhere—

literally.

To complete the new lineup, two new

water- and shockproof 1 NIKKOR AW

lenses have been crafted speciﬁcally

for the Nikon 1 AW1. Meanwhile, the

complete range of 1 NIKKOR lenses

functions perfectly with all Nikon 1

cameras—giving you the power to

record still images and movies without

compromise. The optional FT1 mount

adapter allows you to use NIKKOR D-SLR

lenses, making the Nikon 1 system as

ﬂexible as it is fast.

Nikon 1 AW1

Drop me, plunge me, freeze me, adore me.

Life doesn’t have a replay button. To

catch it, you need a camera that can keep

up. From the epic to the everyday, the

handsome Nikon 1 AW1 can capture

all the action. Whatever Mother Nature

might have in store, this system camera

keeps on performing so you’ll never miss

the moments you don’t want to forget.

Small enough to carry everywhere,

and fast enough to leap into action

in the blink of an eye, the waterproof,

shockproof, dustproof, and freeze-proof

construction means you can capture your

life’s stories in places you wouldn’t dare

bring your old camera. And thanks to

the sophisticated minimalist design,

the Nikon 1 AW1 won’t look out of place

at a chic city event either.

Nikon 1 features like Motion Snapshot

and Best Moment Capture will reward

you with unique images. If movies are

your thing, Advanced Movie Mode lets

you capture stunningly crisp Full HD

footage. The CX-format CMOS sensor

oers a 14.2-megapixel resolution,

and the ISO range goes up to 6400

for beautiful low-light detail.

The astonishingly fast autofocus system

delivers spot-on photos and smooth

movies, no matter what or where you’re

shooting. And when the action really

gets going, there’s no need to stand on

the sidelines and watch: You can capture

the fun from up close with blazingly

fast, continuous, full-resolution shots—all

without worrying about the camera

getting dusty, wet, or knocked out of your

hands. To share your favourites, simply

plug the optional WU-1b Wireless Mobile

Adapter into your camera and send your

photos directly to your smartphone or

tablet.

STRONG AND IRRESISTIBLE

Waterproof

Take the plunge with the Nikon 1 AW1. Simply

attach one of the dedicated waterproof

1 NIKKOR AW lenses, and you can capture

high-quality photos and movies as far down

as 15 m underwater.

Whether you’re scuba diving or out on a

sailing trip, rubber sealing at critical points on

the camera—as well as an O-ring for the lens

mount—protect the system from water and

dust. You’re free to snap the wonders under

the sea, or ﬁlm the leaders in the yacht race,

without a care in the world.
