Nikon-Coolpix-SP1100PJ.jpgThe long-rumoured Coolpix S1100PJ projector has now been officially revealed by Nikon. Compact in size but crammed full of top-notch features, it’s looking a very tasty prospect for the travelling photographer-cum-presentation giver!

The Coolpix S1100PJ boasts a 14 lumen pico-projector, 40% brighter than its Coolpix S1000PJ predecessor, which means it should be fairly capable of projecting the 14.1 MP images you’ve snapped in natural to dimly-lit rooms.

Despite packing in a wide-angle 5x optical zoom, a range of retouch features and animation effects, it’s not just about photos and fun with the Nikon Coolpix S1100PJ. A USB connection will allow you to hook the camera up to a Mac or PC, letting you project slideshow presentations or other files straight from your computer.

Tempting then or just a gimmick? There’s certainly a market for camera/projector hybrids, and a portable presentation device never goes a miss in business circles.

Still, you wont have to wait long to find out whether or not it’s worth your cash: the Nikon Coolpix S1100PJ launches on the 16th September, priced £349.99.
