Versatile 15 Scene Modes

Fifteen programmed Scene Modes make it easy to 
capture optimal results in the most diverse shooting 
situations. With the COOLPIX 8800, anyone, even a 
novice photographer, can take great images simply by
choosing the appropriate mode for the next picture.

Landscape

Emphasizing depth-of-field, this mode captures distant scenes sharply and clearly,
for postcard-like landscape pictures.

Portrait

Emphasizes a subject with natural 
skin tones against a soft, pleasing
background.

Close Up

With precise manual focus area selection
and appropriate coloration, this mode
makes detailed subjects stand out from
the background.

Panorama Assist

Allows you to take several side-by-side images, all at the same exposure and white
balance setting, then combine them later using the “Panorama Maker™” photo 
editing software (supplied) to create spectacular wide-vista photos.

PictureProject Software

Nikon is proud to introduce the
next generation of imaging soft-
ware, Nikon PictureProject.

Nikon PictureProject

is a fast and powerful

tool for organizing and working with your
pictures easily and intuitively.
PictureProject will let you transfer your pictures from your camera seamlessly.
You can then edit, remove red-eye, enhance, crop, print, e-mail, post pictures
to the web or create a photo album. You can even publish them to your PDA,
create slideshows with music or stitch together a number of pictures to create
a stunning panorama.
With Nikon PictureProject you can spend more time taking pictures instead of
managing them and then easily store, organize and share your memories.
