Frequently Asked Questions
How deep can the COOLPIX S31 go underwater before risking damage?
The S31 is rated waterproof to 1.5 meters (approximately 5 feet) for up to 60 minutes under JIS/IEC IPX8 conditions. This covers pool use, shallow water play, and rain — it is not rated for snorkeling depth or extended submersion beyond those parameters.
Does the S31 record video with audio, and what format does it use?
The S31 records 720p HD video at 30fps with built-in microphone audio. Video is saved in MOV format. Audio capture is functional for casual family use but is not optimized for quiet environments or windy outdoor conditions.
What memory does the COOLPIX S31 use, and how many photos can it hold?
The S31 uses microSD cards for primary expandable storage, with a small amount of internal memory included for a handful of images. A 32GB microSD card holds thousands of images at 10.1-megapixel resolution depending on compression settings — a card is strongly recommended for any active shooting session.
From what height is the S31 rated shockproof?
The COOLPIX S31 is rated shockproof from drops of up to 1.2 meters (approximately 4 feet) under MIL-STD-810F testing conditions. This covers most accidental table-height and hand-height drops; corner impacts on hard surfaces can exceed the rated threshold.
Is the COOLPIX S31 suitable for young children to use independently?
Yes — the S31 is specifically designed for child-friendly independent use. The interface is simplified, buttons are large and clearly differentiated, and the durable construction handles the rough treatment typical of younger users without requiring protective accessories.
