-Hi, Lori Grunin from CNET [unk] at the Nikon booth on the very noisy and crowded show floor here at CES.
Nikon announced the Nikon 1 S1 here at the show.
It is very similarly designed to the old J1 and it's their entry-level interchangeable lens model with the lower resolution 10 megapixel CX sensor.
It is notable
for the lack of a mode dial and the interface actually looks very similar to the Sony NEX models with the big entry point icons.
It has what I consider one of the really nice features of some of these cameras.
The popup flash can actually be tilted back while shooting to get a nice bounce or just a less harsh flash, and it actually makes it quite a lot more usable.
This isn't the kit lens; it will ship with the 11- to 27.5-millimeter lens
which is a lot more compact at the end of the month and it will cost $499.95.
I'm Lori Grunin and this is the Nikon 1 S1.
