There are countless posts in various forums about this camera. Most have nothing good to say the device for the sensor to greingen size, change settings from the menu and so I will resist it to me to respond to these points. Anyone who buys a camera has to be clear about what he wants to do with the device. They should be able to do for me: I am not a professional, that I do not deserve the device my livelihood. I take pictures because I had it fun, what to do. The photos need only to please me, I do not intend to publish them. I printed with a Canon Pixma out on a maximum size of A4. The pictures should be sharp, wirklichkeistgerteu without optical aberrations of the optical system used. The camera must have left a high impression, meticulously crafted and constructed technically sound. Do not alternate between various settings to and fro, things like art filters I can not use. In order to shorten it: All that meets the Nikon 1 V1 perfectly from my perspective. Who has similar demands on a camera, which I can only recommend the V1, especially since it is being offered at reduced prices. On the subject of sensor size, I can not help but a few details. This is the most called criticism on the forums. In details such as image circles, focal lengths, magnification, dynamic I will not go into in this context. Only so much: The sensor converts light into electrical signals, we are talking about digital technology. The larger the area of the sensor, the more it can generate signals to make an image formed. If it is small, the signals must be amplified. With the gain may cause problems if there is the so-called noise. This can result in images in pixels that just do not belong in some places down. The better is an amplifier, the less error in the gain, there is. Nikon used obviously excellent amplifier, something else I have of "Nippon (Zeiss) Ikon" not expected. Something else Nikon can not afford it. I have read a lot of posts about this camera, most were damning. However, it was clearly evident that most of the commentators never had the camera in hand and do not know basically what they actually make a judgment. This is something I refer to as unqualified.
I prefer a star from the screen because the camera could be pivotal. But need not necessarily be so, the viewfinder is excellent.
