Nikon D50 Digital Camera

Whatever you shoot there is a Digital Vari Program that sets up the camera for the best exposure. Just select the mode dial and the D50 takes care of the rest. It's small, it's light, it fits snugly in your hands and it delivers clear, sharp results that allow you to take your image onto your computer and explore extra creative possibilities. The D50 Kit includes the all-new AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED lens that has been optically designed for use with Nikon digital SLR sensors. 135 equivalent of 27-82.5mm zoom range.

The 6.1 megapixel DX CCD image sensor produces exceptionally vivid and detailed high-resolution images – ideal for enlargements.
The kit lens(es) of the D50 have a Silent Wave Motor incorporated into the lens. This focuses the lens soundlessly.
Continuous shooting at 2.5 frames per second combined with shutter speeds of up to 1/4000 sec and Flash Sync Speed of 1/500 sec.
The high-energy rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery EN-EL3 delivers the power to shoot up to 2,000 images on a single charge and is supplied with a new and smaller battery charger MH-18a.
A large, bright 2-inch LCD screen makes it easy to preview images and also displays an easy-to-understand, colour-coded menu. A handy 'Help' button brings up a straightforward explanation of the features.
7 Digital Vari-Program Modes that automatically optimize the camera settings to produce great results in any condition. Selections include Auto, Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Close-up, Night Portrait and the new Child Mode which enhances the colour of young skin tones. There’s also a full manual mode for users who want to stay in complete creative control.
Ensures accurate and optimum exposure control in all types of lighting conditions. Its new technology detects highlights and shadows and compensates for them to prevent under or over exposure.
An advanced 5-area autofocus system with predictive focus tracking and Lock-on™ delivers greater precision and improved focus tracking to clearly capture the action. The automatic AF-assist illuminator helps to maintain focus in low-light conditions.
Images can be printed without a computer, quickly and easily to any PictBridge compatible printer.
