Fixed screen

Nikon Coolpix P330 has a 3.0" Fixed screen with 921k dot resolution.

BSI-CMOS Sensor

Nikon Coolpix P330 features a 12.2 megapixel 1/1.7-inch BSI-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 7.44 x 5.58 mm and a total area of 41.5 mm². Its native ISO range is 100 - 12,800.

The camera has BSI-CMOS sensor, short for Backside Illuminated Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor sensor. In traditional CMOS sensors, the wiring and circuitry are located on the front side of the sensor, which can block some of the incoming light. BSI technology flips this design by placing the photosensitive elements (pixels) on the backside of the sensor, allowing more light to reach the pixels. This significantly enhances light sensitivity and improves low-light performance. BSI-CMOS sensors are particularly effective in low-light conditions, as they can capture more light, resulting in brighter and less noisy images. This makes them well-suited for indoor and night photography. BSI-CMOS sensors deliver a higher SNR and reduced cross-talk.

Camera can take pictures up to 4000 x 3000 resolution.

Image Stabilization

The camera has an image stabilization.

Built-in GPS

Nikon Coolpix P330 has a built-in GPS (Global Positioning System) technology which allows you to automatically tag the location where you took your photos.
