General
- Brand: Nikon
- Model Number: 26491
- Product Name: Coolpix AW130 16.0-Megapixel Waterproof Digital Camera
- Color: Black
- Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 4608 x 3456 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: 1/1500 - 1 sec.; 1/4000 sec. maximum during high-speed continuous shooting; 4 sec. in fireworks show scene mode (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Minimum Aperture: 4.9 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
- Maximum Aperture: 2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
- Brightness Control: true (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Self Timer: true
- Shooting Modes: Scene auto selector, scene, special effects, smart portrait, auto mode and short movie show (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: true
- Scene Modes: Backlighting, beach, black-and-white copy and more (Exposure modes with predetermined optimal settings for capturing specific scenes. Examples include Landcape, Portrait, and Sports modes.)
- White Balance Modes: Auto, daylight, incandescent, fluorescent, cloudy, flash, preset WB (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
Flash
- Flash Modes: Automatic (The flash feature emits light to increase the brightness of a subject in dimly lit environments. Common modes include Auto and Red-Eye Reduction.)
- Integrated Flash: true
Display
- Display Type: Other
- Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Screen Resolution: Approximately 921,000 dots (Screens come in a range of resolutions (measured in pixels, horizontal x vertical). The higher the resolution, the greater the picture quality.)
- Touch Screen: false (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
- Varying Angle Screen: false (The camera's screen can be flipped out and adjusted to rotate, tilt, and/or swivel.)
Video
- HD Movie Mode Focus: Automatic
Storage
- Number of Memory Card Slots: 1
Compatibility
- Tripod/Monopod Mountable: false (A support function that allows the device to be mounted to monopods and tripods for leveling and stability.)
- Memory Card Compatibility: Secure Digital (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
Features
- Face Detection: true (A function that automatically detects human faces and then sets focus and appropriate exposure to capture them.)
- Smile Mode: true (When enabled, this mode works in conjunction with face detection to automatically take a photo when a smile is detected.)
- Integrated GPS: Yes
- Records Audio: true
Connectivity
- Output(s): USB
- PictBridge Enabled: true (PictBridge allows digital cameras, camcorders and other image capture devices to connect and print directly to photo printers and other output devices without using a computer.)

Good overall camera.
Purchased this camera before a beach vacation in Florida. The wife wanted a water resistant camera that was small enough to fit in her small purse. We did a little research and came up with this camera. I will say it work well. It is small enough to be carried in a purse or cargo pocket of shorts. It delivers on the waterproof and was fully underwater many times in the pool and ocean. No problems. The underwater pics were clear and without much distortion. Color of the pictures were very good for a point and click. I took very good low light pics at sunset. It does have several settings for pre-programmed scenes. We used it on auto detect setting most of the time. My only beef with the camera was some blurring on motion shots but most of these were taken on auto detect mode and not under sports setting. We also purchased a backup battery and additional memory card but only used the backup battery once. Battery life was better then I had expected. Overall worth the investment and would recommend if you are in need of a point and shot in a wet environment.

Good camera with very limited battery life
I bought this camera for a recent one week sailing and snorkelling trip. The camera worked very well in most conditions. There are some issues with the auto white balance especially when using the flash, but nothing too distracting as my purpose was not flash photography. Most of the daylight photos, videos and underwater imagery is pretty good. Took the camera to 10-12 feet depth without any issues. The only disappointing feature is that the battery is tiny (only 1050mAh theoretically). If you use the tele/wide feature, it consumes the tiny battery very rapidly. One recharge lasts only 2-3 hours (about 150 pictures and 10 min video). Also if you store the battery in the camera, it looses the charge at a fairly fast rate. So store the battery out of the camera, when not in use and if you do not have access to recharging. Carrying a spare battery is a must. We were lucky to have recharging ability in our sailboat, else the trip would have been sour. I had a spare battery (same as the original one) and had to recharge both batteries almost everyday. Another negative is that you have to use the camera to charge the battery through the micro-usb. If you do not have a spare battery charger (can be bought separately from a third party), then the camera is occupied to charge your battery. Nikon should have thought of a larger/better battery for the best use of this good little camera. That is why I give it 4 stars.

Spend some time getting comfortable
We bought this camera to take on a cruise. I wanted something waterproof and of course that takes great pictures. This camera does a nice job on both fronts. The menus on the camera are endless so you need to spend some time getting familiar with the camera before you begin using it. If you're looking for a simple point and shoot, this probably isn't it, but probably easier than your SLR (and waterproof to boot). I would purchase it again.
