Overview

The new Nikon AW120 is perfect for capturing shots of everyday life as well as the thrills of your holidays. With the bright lens that gives you clear, blur-free images in any situation including underwater, and the tough exterior that can withstand harsh weather conditions; this camera is made to be adventurous.

Perfect performance, in imperfect situations

Waterproof to a depth of almost 18m and shockproof to survive a 2m drop, the Nikon AW120 is built to withstand the elements. In addition to being dust-proof, the camera is also cold resistant up to -10°c, so there’s nowhere the Nikon AW120 can’t go.

Versatility at its finest

From underwater shots to night landscapes or dimly-lit environments, the wide-angle f/2.8 NIKKOR lens captures the ideal amount of light for a great picture. With a 5x optical zoom (covering 24mm to 120mm equivalent in 35mm format), and a Dynamic Fine Zoom* (approximately 240mm equivalent in 35mm format), it gives you the flexibility to capture faraway objects. The macro shooting mode also allows you to go as close as 1cm to get vivid colours and crisp details in your shots.

* Dynamic Fine Zoom refers to the areas in which the camera can zoom while maintaining resolution from the maximum optical telephoto zoom position.

Tough in appearance. Refined in performance

The 16 megapixel lens, superb image-processing engine EXPEED C2, and backside illumination CMOS sensor all combine to give you bright, stunning and blur-free images. The target finding autofocus (AF) automatically hones in on the subject, while the Pre AF achieves focus even without pressing the shutter-release button halfway. The Pre-AF also activates immediately when a shake is detected, which means you just have to focus on what you want to shoot while the Nikon AW120 takes care of the rest.

Know where you are. Share what you love

The Nikon AW120 comes with built-in GPS, an electronic compass and a world map so you can lose yourself in what you’re doing without losing your way. The GPS also lets you log in the altitude/water depth and keep track of it at regular intervals. 
The built-in Wi-Fi® allows sharing moments instantly with your loved ones. Using the Wireless Mobile Utility App (available for download at the App Store and Google Play), you can turn your smart phone to a remote shooting device, so you can be in the picture, with the vastness of nature as the perfect backdrop.

Relive the rush

Document your travels with Full HD videos. The high-performance Vibration Reduction (VR) function uses lens-shift VR and Electronic VR for shake-free and blur-free shooting. The Record Pause feature of the Nikon AW120 lets you omit any action you don’t need in your movies just by pressing the pause button, and resume recording later with the same movie file. And with the playback editing function, you can snip out any unwanted scene directly on your camera.

Features Explained

Bright lens for brilliant results even underwater

The bright f/2.8 lens with 24 mm* wide-angle, together with the Backside illumination CMOS image sensor, captures quality images in the dark. Bring your subject closer to you with the NIKKOR optical 5x zoom lens, and to capture far distant subjects rely on 10x** Dynamic Fine Zoom with a combination of lens-shift and electronic VR (Vibration Reduction) for stable images even when zoomed in — great whether you’re out to sea or in the city.

*35mm format equivalent. 
**Magnification as calculated from the full-wide end of optical zoom. 

 

Built tough to match your active lifestyle

• Great for outdoors even underwater: Waterproof to a depth of 18 m/59 ft 
• Reliable performance even in harsh environments: Withstands drops from 
heights of up to 2 m/6 ft 6 in. 
• Suitable for winter sports: Withstands temperatures down to -10°C/14°F 

 

 

Shoot while walking with superior image stabilization

5-Axis Hybrid VR enables recording of beautiful and steady Full HD 1080/60i movies even while shooting scenery from a moving vehicle or chasing after a fast-moving subject.

Connect wirelessly to share via Wi-Fi®*

• Share images wirelessly with ease via smart device 
• Remote control of camera from smart device 
• Automatic transfer of images from camera to smart device whenever you take a picture

You can not only charge the battery at high speed but also shoot while charging

Highly efficient Charging AC Adapter and improvements in the camera’s charging system contribute to a major reduction in the time it takes to charge the battery.

 

Technologies to achieve high-quality images

Working in concert to deliver high-quality images even when it’s dark are the Backside illumination CMOS image sensor, NIKKOR lens, and the EXPEED C2 image-processing system.

 

 

Notes: Full HD refers to this camera’s ability to record movies in 1920 x 1080 format. Wi-Fi® and the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED logo are registered trademarks of the Wi-Fi Alliance.
