Q: QuestionDoes it have the nearby connectivity? I don't think it's GPS, but I'm not sure what it's called.

Q: QuestionCan you adjust this camera for shooting under different lighting conditions? For example, can I use this when shooting in dim conditions, bright conditions such as on a beach and does this camera have a built in flash.

Asked 7 years ago by Lester.

• A:Answer The Nikon COOLPIX W100 digital camera has a variety of modes, settings, and effects to help you create amazing images, even in low light situations. This camera has a number of night style scenes to choose from, such as night scene, fireworks and light trails that allow you take quality images when it's dark out. There is also a backlit scene for when very bright and dark areas are in the same frame, which can create an HDR composite image where loss of details is minimized. For images that need more or less light there is an exposure compensation option in the camera which allows you to adjust the overall brightness level of the image as you take it. This camera also has a built-in flash for times when there is a need for more light.
