Compact DSLR system for fast-action capture
The Nikon 1 S1 pairs a 10.1 MP super high-speed AF CMOS sensor with an 11-27.5mm VR 1 NIKKOR lens in a khaki body. It shoots at 15 fps with continuous autofocus and records Full HD video. A 3.2 inch LCD provides live view and playback. The system targets photographers who need responsive shooting in a lightweight interchangeable-lens camera.
Upgrade from fixed-lens compacts or smartphones
Buyers moving up from basic point-and-shoot cameras or phone cameras gain true lens interchangeability and phase-detection autofocus speed. The jump is worth it when you regularly shoot fast-moving subjects and need 15 fps sequences with focus tracking. It does not suit buyers who want more storage or builders who need a second card slot for instant backup.
Limits of the Nikon 1 mount and sensor format
The 1 NIKKOR lens range is smaller than larger DSLR systems, restricting telephoto and ultra-wide options. The 10.1 MP resolution limits cropping headroom and large-print detail compared to higher-resolution sensors. Electronic vibration reduction helps handheld stability but cannot match optical stabilisation in longer focal lengths. Wi-Fi requires the optional WU-1b adapter, which is not included.

Questions about this item
Which lens mount does the 11-27.5mm VR lens use to attach to the Nikon 1 S1 body?
The lens uses the Nikon 1 mount, which is the native bayonet for the Nikon 1 S1 mirrorless camera.
What is the correct order for attaching the 11-27.5mm VR lens and inserting the battery so the camera recognises the lens?
Insert a charged battery first, then align the white mounting index on the lens with the mark on the body and twist until it clicks; the camera will not detect the lens if the battery is added afterwards.
How often should the 11-27.5mm VR lens contacts and the 3.2-inch LCD be cleaned to maintain reliable autofocus and image review?
Clean the lens contacts with a dry microfibre cloth whenever they look dirty, and wipe the 3.2-inch LCD gently with a screen-safe cloth every few weeks to keep autofocus communication and image review clear.
