Nikon V1
10.1 megapixels | 3" screen | CX format sensor
The Nikon V1 enthusiast small sensor mirrorless camera is built around what the company is calling a 'CX' format 10MP CMOS sensor. The camera is part of the company's new Nikon 1 line. The V1 is intended as the higher-end model in the lineup and features a magnesium alloy construction and a 1.4M dot electronic viewfinder. It also has an accessory port allowing the connection of the SB-N5 mini speedlight or GP-N100 GPS unit. It can shoot 1080i60 video and combines both phase detection and contrast detection autofocus. The 1" type sensor (13.2mm x 8.8mm) gives a 2.7x crop.
