Integral projector aside, this Coolpix is still a decent camera in its own right with picture quality on a par with a £200 point-and-shoot snapshot. However, this one retails for £379.99. To be critical, at maximum 28mm wide-angle setting...

The Nikon S1200pj is available in India at a street price of Rs.13,300. If a person is looking out for a camera with manual or semi manual settings then this is not the option for them. This camera has really good features and is basically designed...

The S1200pj's projector is a neat feature, but still we find the asking price too high. Despite being a good camera at heart, it's let down by a little too much variation in brightness in some pictures. We'd rather lose the projector and,...
By CNET UK onNikon's third "pj" labeled Coolpix camera, the S1200pj boasts some impressive features for a compact digicam; with the most obvious being its built-in 20 lumen projector. That's right, a projector is built right into the front of this camera,...
