Pros:Tiny and very light. Video quality is very good overall: even the less experienced will be able to make appreciable movies. Excellent color yield. Autofocus fast and accurate. NEF files that can be processed with the same programs and parameters that are used to process Nikon SLR NEFs.
Cons:In my opinion the only real big versus is the size of the sensor, from "only" an inch, which does not allow that "detachment" effect of the subject from the background, even to the longer focal points.
Opinion:Big machine. Lightweight.... Tiny... in fact a compact with slightly protruding optics, but not even more so (I speak of the 10 30 VR). Removed what, in my opinion, is the only real limit of the camera, namely a sensor that you "see" (from the photos) be smaller than that of the APS and the FF (you "see" because it struggles to "detach" the subjects from the background, succeeding a little hard in certain situations ions, and failing to do just in others) otherwise will give you great satisfaction. Nice colors, I would also say a good hold at the high ISO, which certainly will not be the stellar one of Fuji, but still remains satisfactory. Good autofocus, fast, accurate, reliable.... not very far, as performance, from that of an entry level reflex. The real ace of the J1's sleeve is the video department: the movies are really good!!! "You will discover" the beauty of shooting, comfortably and simply, short videos (up to 20 minutes, cmq!) with the utmost "naturalness", without having to set or "set" anything special...
Pros:Lightweight (When you have her neck you do not feel it); rnIn optimal light conditions, masterpieces can be realized; rnAffectofocus is extremely precise thanks to 135 focus areas; rnMenu of really simple and intuitive settings; rnParco narrow objectives but it's all about: [Wide N ° 1 (10mm), Wide Angle 2 (10-30mm), Wide Angle No. 3 (18.5mm f1.8), Zoom (30-110mm), Telephoto Lens (70 -300mm)]; rnVideo Good (1080p 30fps - 720p 60fps) Still More ...
Cons:Not being a FullFrame, in the evening it is not great, but not too "poor"; nothing else; rnVideo in slow motion (1200fps) only and only at 240p, therefore useless; noise over 400 ISO but up to 600 bearable. Video Audio Not Excellent. Lack of an optical viewfinder (but not essential) and lack of a slide.rnrn
Opinion:With this jewel I am really finding it right from the memory that, as mentioned above, the car with the goal turns out to be really lightweight and "portable". Thanks to the Nikon 1 J1 I was able to look at what really is the world of photography, also getting results, in my opinion more than positive. rnBut in the "Counter" he said that in non-optimal light conditions, he can not always satisfy, I can assure that for work, I found myself having to take pictures of night football matches (which in itself are difficult even in the daytime) and the results , although not FullFrame, of course, I'm not sorry, but also a flash, though small, powerful enough. To immortalize the subject, always at night, with the help of a tripod and a lot of patience, will come out of the magic photos.rnrnIN CONCLUSION: You see to get such a machine, also by affording your Reflex FullFrame with a thousand functions can always return useful !! rnrnPS. Beingout of business, you find it used at no cost! I bought it, used, at € 150 with the target 10-30!
Cons:Image quality with brightness not ideal, complicated menus for the target to which it is addressed
Opinion:Found in the super offer I gave to my wife, who was looking for a simple camera that also had a shutter speed to "stop" the subjects of the most complicated .. kindergarten children. The electronic burst in these cases is really easy and a lot of photos are just well managed thanks to this feature of the Nikon 1 series, even if you have to have the patience to remove the hundreds of photos unusable (the other side of the coin of the convenience of gusts). The flaws that I have found are the qualities that decade when the light is not really ideal (the flash fixes a little bit), and the menu which in some ways I found it really unintuitive. It seems that Nikon designers have wanted to include the ability to select the mode A, P, S, M, knowing that 9 out of 10 users they would not even try to understand what they mean to those lettere.rnI in FullHD movies are of good quality and it is possible to realize short videos at high speed up to 1200fps.rnConsiderando Finally, this is the first mirrorless camera from Nikon, my vote is still positive, but seeing the results obtained so far from those who use it almost every day, my wife, who is not a photographer by profession.
Pros:Great video, small and lightweight, the 2.7x crop factor enhances telephoto lenses (eg 500mm = 1350 mm!) And macro lenses (you will get good results only overturning the standard lens). I found the ability to take fantastic pictures (up to 15) to wisdom resolution when shooting video in 1080i at 60fps, with a fast and accurate autofocus, even the considerable slow-motion movie at 400fps. Comfortable the Dust Shield, I can change lenses without fear dust and dirt. Photos usable up to ISO 800. The built-in microphone is more than adequate (for a microphone). Very simple menu, from compact but complete with all the necessary functions, including built-in intervalometer.
Cons:The small size of the sensor makes it slightly noisy, no photo is ever perfectly crisp when scaled to 100%, again because of the size of the sensor CX 2.7x crop factor makes it more difficult to get wide-angle shots. The size of the filter (40.5 mm) made me difficult to find a polarizer, not to mention the ND filter. Missing an attack flash and microphones. E 'need to buy an adapter (2/300 €) to use Nikkor lenses. To change the ISO sensitivity to go down a few levels in the menu, the risk of losing the moment.
Opinion:If (as I did) you buy for the characteristics of its functions (video at 400fps, shots very quickly and in high quality HD video) you can not be disappointed. It 's my first camera when I bought it I did not know what was the ISO, but it gave me a great desire to learn the basics of photography and allowed me to do it very well. It is not a car for everyone, I would say, is perfect for those who want to look out on the world of photography without taking an SLR, but also for those looking for only the best results of any compact without having the bulk of a DSLR.
