From the Manufacturer
---------------------
It's small, light and fits snugly in your hands. It's a 35mm
single lens reflex camera with interchangeable lens
capability--and best of all it's a Nikon. It's compact and
lightweight design includes fully automatic focus and exposure
controls, built-in flash and automatic film advance. Because it's
a Nikon, the N55 will give you more possibilities for control and
creativity. This camera was designed with one thing in mind--to
show you how easy and exciting it can be to create beautiful
images.
Compact, Lightweight Entry into the Nikon Total Imaging System
You don't need to be a pro to get a handle on this Nikon 35mm
SLR. It's so compact and lightweight (12.3 oz.) that anyone can
handle it. Features include an ergonomic grip with camera
controls that fall naturally under your fingers. The camera is
built tough with a durable metal lens for optical
integrity...and offers you the rtunity to
interchangeable Nikkor lenses and grow with a camera system that
offers virtually limitless possibilities.
Advanced Program Mode Dial for Creative Options
Set the Mode Dial at "green-for-go" Auto and the N55
automatically sets the exposure, shutter speed and aperture
controls. You can get more creative automatically, too, with the
camera's five Vari-Program scene modes. Each mode optimizes the
camera's settings for the most popular types of photography,
leaving the photographer free to concentrate on the subject. They
include Portrait, Landscape, Close-up, Sports Continuous and
Night Scene.
3-Area Dynamic AF System
To help you capture natural movement, Nikon designed the N55
with its Dynamic AF system with three focus areas that cover a
wide picture-taking field to help insure sharp pictures, even
when the subject is not in the center of the frame. Dynamic AF
Technology uses all three sensors to maintain focus on subjects
that move within the AF sensor area. The N55 selects
corresponding AF sensors and maintains focus at 1.5 frames per
second. Pre-wind film loading ensures the film is already back in
the cassette at the end of the roll.
3D Matrix Metering
This exclusive Nikon metering system measures the entire image,
analyzing details of light and contrast. Referring to an internal
database of over 30,000 scenes from an enormous range of shooting
conditions, the system analyzes the scene to make the ideal
exposure, revealing the beauty and subtlety of color an light
that made you stop and take a . When set to Auto mode, the
N55 makes getting Nikon-quality SLR pictures simple. Look through
the finder and press the shutter release. The N55 handles the
rest.
Auto Pop-up Flash
The N55's automatic, built-in pop-up Speedlight flash is another
feature that helps make it a snap to take the world's greatest
pictures. And it offers more ways to get creative, too. In the
Auto and five Vari-Program modes, the flash pops up when needed,
firing automatically when light is low or the subject is backlit.
A Red-Eye Reduction light is precision timed to contract the
subject's pupils right before shutter release, minimizing red-eye
from the picture. Slow-sync mode allows you to creatively use
flash while allowing background elements and colors to fill in
the frame.
Top Panel LCD Display
An easy-to-see top panel LCD shows you camera setting
information at a glance, including f/stop, shutter speed, flash
mode and more.
Full-Information, Adjustable Viewfinder
Most of the data on the LCD panel also appears in the viewfinder
LCD, for setting adjustments without taking your eye from the
viewfinder. To accommodate near- or far-ed photographers,
the N55 has a built-in diopter adjustment with settings from -1.5
to +0.8.
