The NV3 is a 7.2 megapixel, 3x optical zoom ultra-slim (0.7 inches thick) camera with a 2.5 inch LCD.  The  camera has a stainless steel, black body and is pretty attractive overall.  Eleven scene modes and plenty of in-camera editing features provide a rich feature set for camera users.  As a media player, the camera can convert MPEG, AVI, MOV, WMV and ASF files to be played on the display.  For audio, the camera can handle MP3 and WAV files.  A super macro mode lets you get as close as 1 cm from your subject
