The Nikon digital cameras with non-interchangeable lenses |
Parallel to its range of SLR-type digital camera, Nikon put on the market since 1996 several digital cameras for mass-market and created a new range called Coolpix.
In 2016, Nikon presents premium cameras built around a 1" sensor and called DL. They will never be released.
In December 2022, Nikon announced that it stopped the development of new compact cameras. So that's the end of the coolpix.

Digital cameras being subjected to the law of Moore: doubly performances of the sensors every year and reduction of the selling price. The sales increase quickly and numeric cameras become obsolete quickly.
In 1998, professional CCD is 2 Meg pixel and mass market CCD are near of 1 Meg. Nikon introduces two cameras:
Coolpix 600
has a 1MP 1/2.7" sensor of 1024 X 768 pixels, an objective fixes equiv. 36mm, an optical finder, a monitor ACL of 5cm and a storage of the images on CompactFlash™. One can associate with the principal module, a flash.|

The first two Coolpix cameras are on the market in 1996. The basic model, the Coolpix 100 is really easy to use. |
|

The Coolpix 300 has some of the same features of the previous model: a built-in flash, a fix-focus lens of 6.2 mm (equiv. 45 mm), a 640 by 480 pixels definition with the same 1/3 CCD. This original possibility changes the Coolpix 300 in a numeric notepad. These two cameras had to face a significant competition and were served by a rather high price in spite of their originality |
For US market, Nikon has developed some special releases of Coolpix cameras.
