Even if the camera is entry level and could come under the ultra compact bracket, Nikon never fails to add its ‘special touch’ which can be seen from its superior quality Nikkor lenses used in all cameras. This 8 mp camera with a zoom range of 3.6x will also come up to the level of its predecessors, because of its functions like Smart Portrait System and Digital Image Stabilization.
Design and FunctioningLike its ‘big brother’ the L22, the Nikon Coolpix L21 comes with the same comfy design and sophisticated colours like Plum Red, Midnight Black and Champagne Silver. Though made for entry level enthusiasts of photography, it comes with the same features that make Nikon the easiest choice for anyone. It comes across as user friendly to the core, what with Nikon’s signatory BSS (Best Shot Selector) function that shoots a maximum of 10 consecutive shots and selects only the sharpest and best exposed picture. Then there is Smart Portrait System that comes with modes like Blink Warning and In-camera red-eye removal. This camera responds to ISO rating ranging from 64 to 1600, is compatible with SD and SDHC cards and comes with an internal memory of 19MB.
