Screen

Nikon Coolpix L110 and Nikon Coolpix L820 have 3.0" Fixed screens with 460k dot and 921k dot resolutions respectively.

Nikon Coolpix L110 features a 12.1 megapixel 1/2.3-inch CCD sensor with dimensions of 6.17 x 4.55 mm and a total area of 28.1 mm². Its native ISO range is 80 - 1,600 and expands to 80 - 6,400 in boosted mode. Nikon Coolpix L820 features a 16 megapixel 1/2.3-inch BSI-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 6.16 x 4.62 mm and a total area of 21.3 mm². Its native ISO range is 125 - 3,200.

Nikon Coolpix L820 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.

Nikon Coolpix L110 is equipped with Expeed C2 processor and can take pictures up to 4000 x 3000 resolution.
