Frame the perfect shot
3x wide-angle NIKKOR glass zoom lens gets you closer to the action
Every COOLPIX is designed around a genuine NIKKOR glass lens, the legendary optics that have made Nikon famous. The COOLPIX S32's 3x Zoom NIKKOR lens is great for everything from wide-angle group shots to close-up portraits. Plus, Electronic Vibration Reduction helps keep every video steadier, even if your hands are not.
Superior low-light performance
High-performance CMOS image sensor lets you shoot without a flash

You won't have to interrupt a moment to capture it, and your photos will look more natural and true to your memory. The COOLPIX S32 performs so well in low light situations that, in most cases, using the flash is optional. Of course, when the lighting is extremely poor and you need a flash, it'll be there.
