The Nikon Coolpix 995 is a 3.1 megapixel digital camera announced by the Nikon Corporation in April 2001 (introduced in July). The body is in two halves, with a swivel joint between them, so that the LCD screen can be angled for easy viewfinding. Settings are shown on a second display on the top panel. The power/mode switch is around the shutter release; zooming is controlled by two buttons which fall under the right thumb. Focus and exposure can be automatic, but there is manual override; above the zoom buttons is a wheel for manually adjusting these settings.

The 995 is an upgraded Coolpix 990, adding a flip-up flash (to reduce red-eye; the 990 flash was very close to the lens), a faster shutter (1/2300), noise reduction and support for a more sophisticated, rechargeable battery instead of the 990's AA cells. The case has a plastic shell, in place of the 990's alloy castings. Retained from the 990 are the control layout and the tiny, flimsy USB connector.
