Coolpix AW


All Weather Series

The first in Nikon's new AW series of waterproof, shock-proof, cold-resistant compact digital cameras!

INR 16,950

An effective pixel count of 16.0-million pixels and a 5x optical zoom NIKKOR lens with a zoom range beginning at the wide-angle 28 mm (equivalent in 35mm [135] format) for coverage of a broad range of angles of view






  • Nikon's first waterproof, shock-proof and cold-resistant camera
    The AW100 offers durable specifications for shooting in the severe conditions presented with outdoor activities such as swimming and diving, or while hiking or skiing. It is waterproof to approximately 10 meters, shock-proof with a fall of up to approximately 1.5 meters, and can withstand cold air temperatures as low as - 10°C (14°F).











  • Equipped with convenient functions of outdoor shooting:
    1. Action Control
      This feature allows you to apply a variety of camera settings by simply pressing the large action button on the side of the camera and then shaking the camera. Action Control is convenient when gloves worn underwater or while skiing make operating the buttons on the multi selector difficult.

    2. Underwater scene mode When Underwater scene mode is enabled, either manually or automatically in Easy Auto mode, white balance is automatically adjusted using exclusive parameters to prevent unnatural green or blue cast in images captured underwater. In addition, adoption of a backside illumination CMOS image sensor that increases image quality with shooting at high sensitivities, less noise at high sensitivities all the way to the maximum ISO 3200, and a lens-shift + electronic vibration reduction (VR) function support capture of beautiful, blur-free images exhibiting very little noise under the low-light conditions experienced underwater.


    1. GPS (with A-GPS), electronic compass, map display, POI (point of interest) display, log function

      The high-performance GPS and electronic compass built into the camera acquire and record position information with shooting. This information can then be viewed on a world map*1 displayed in the camera monitor. The A-GPS function*2, adopted for the first time with a Nikon digital camera, makes using the GPS feature smoother and simpler.

      The AW100 also offers a log function that can be used to track and record movement with acquisition of position information even while the camera is off. Logs can then be saved and displayed in the camera monitor. POI settings for recording and displaying place names can also be specified.

      These features offer active users who enjoy sports or traveling new ways to enjoy their photos by allowing them to keep a record of their jogging route along with photos they have taken along the way, or to record their movement on an outing while on vacation as a file that can then be viewed using Google Earth™.

      In addition, when photos are uploaded to Nikon's image storage and sharing site, my Picturetown, the photos can be displayed on a map using the application's map view, and photos with position information attached can be shared with others. An update that will enable support for displaying heading information and logs with my Picturetown's map view is planned.
