Here's a brief look, in video form, of some of the features and functionality of Nikon's latest camera. It's got everything you'd expect from a premium COOLPIX model, with the surprising addition of a miniature projector.

There's also the more standard 12-megapixel sensor, 2.7-inch LCD, 5x optical zoom and video recording capabilities, as well as the usual bevy of face/blink/smile/red-eye detection features.

Is it a gimmick, or is it going to be a revolution in what we expect from a compact camera? Click play on the video above to find out what we thought.
