Perhaps nothing signals Nikon's long-term commitment to the 1 System, however, more than its decision to build both cameras around a completely new lens mount and a unique 10MP CMOS sensor. Unlike the rest of the market, which is populated by cameras baked to the same basic 'small body, large sensor' recipe, the 1 System's 1-inch sensor that is small in two ways - both physically and in terms of its resolution.
At The cameras, on the other hand, aren't that small at all. The differences between the J1 and V1 are important - the V1 has a built-in 1. However, despite being the cheaper, simpler model, the J1 has a built-in flash which the V1 lacks. The V1 has a higher resolution rear LCD screen and a mechanical shutter in addition to the electronic shutter found in the J1 , which makes it a better choice for high framerate captures of moving subjects.
Ergonomically though, with the exception of the V1's built-in EVF, both cameras handle in much the same way. Both lack a traditional exposure mode dial, and neither camera offers much in the way of customization.
Both are - in essence - designed for multi-purpose point and shoot operation. We were quite happy with its performance as we had to travel light and quickly shoot whatever that we liked until the beginning of this year — the LCD monitor completely went off both cameras. Repairing it would be expensive and I will continue to use it with the EVF until it too goes off.
This is the main complain of most of my Nikon friends — unreliability of parts and expensive repair. Maybe it only happens in this country. As you may know by now it isn't a problem with the LCD monitor but an over-sensitive eye-sensor that is a bit dusty.
It is a common problem on the V1, mine has it. Clean the eye-sensor and the monitor will retirn to normal functioning. This is the most thorough in depth review of the Nikon 1 system. Wish I had seen it before I bought the V I use my V1 for 2 purposes I bought this when the price really dropped I feel very fortunate that I was able to get one I have another mirrorless camera I did have a nex 6 but sent it back I just did not like the softness of the images Correction : it does not allow full shutter control in video Reportage photographer Giulio Magnifico wants to take people on a journey with him when they look at his photos.

A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products. A hot shoe can be used to attach an external flash, as well as light meters, viewfinders, rangefinders and other attachments.
Resolution is an essential indicator of a screen's image quality, representing the maximum amount of pixels that can be shown on the screen. The resolution is given as a compound value, comprised of horizontal and vertical pixels. A higher screen resolution provides a sharper image, making it easier to review your photos. A system camera has many interchangeable components such as lenses, flashes, and other accessories. System cameras offer greater flexibility than compact cameras.
Pixel density is a measurement of a screen's resolution, expressed as the number of pixels per inch PPI on the screen. A higher pixel density translates into more clarity and sharpness for the images rendered on the screen, thus improving the quality of the viewing experience.
A flash is good for low-light environments, and can sometimes be used as flashlight. The bigger the screen size is, the better the user experience. Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
Optics 1. The larger the sensor the more light the sensor captures yielding in better image quality. The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image. With a higher light sensitivity ISO level , the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash. Fast continuous shooting is useful for catching action shots.
With AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots. A faster maximum shutter speed allows taking pictures of fast moving subjects without blur.
