Nikon has announced its flagship compact, the classically compact Nikon Coolpix P6000 combines 13.5 effective megapixels with a 4x wide-angle optical Zoom-Nikkor ED glass lens for stunning prints as large as 20×30 inches.
Using Nikon’s EXPEED image processor and Image stabilization, the Nikon Coolpix P6000 also records RAW files in a new NRW format that can be converted in-camera or with the forthcoming Windows version of View NX or Windows Imaging Component compatible applications.

A stand-out feature is the inclusion of built-in GPS logging of the locations at which images were recorded which combined with its Wired LAN port provides geo-tagging capability to upload your pictures to Nikon’s my Picturetown photo storage and sharing service.

Mother’s Day upcoming!

The perfect gift? A Nikon Coolpix S51! Your mother will like its sleek design and the Magenta (or call it pinky, if you like) nuance.

She will like too the advanced features that make it easier to take beautiful photos and to share them with friends and family!
The Nikon Coolpix S51 includes Pictmotion, which allows users to create audiovisual shows anywhere by simply selecting favorite images and movies and adding music and visual styles.

The Nikon Coolpix S51sports a 3.0-inch LCD monitor that offers a bright and large image that eases composition and viewing, even out in the sun.

Not to mention, she’ll never miss a shot with optical lens shift VR image stabilization.

You’ll like it’s Nikon quality (and now comes with a 22% saving offer!).Moth

The new Nikon Coolpix P80, a new addition to its successful COOLPIX P series range, a great 10 Megapixel camera!

Designed for active photo enthusiasts with an interest in fine detail, this camera features a class-leading compact body size and a zoom lens that ranges from wide-angle to super telephoto (27-486mm equivalent in 35mm [135] format).

The Nikon Coolpix P80 sports optical VR Image Stabilization minimizes the effect of camera shake, for sharper images, and a bright 2.7-inch high-resolution LCD and electronic viewfinder to make composing and sharing pictures easier than ever.

In addition to this, the Nikon Coolpix P80 also offers manual control of exposure (shutter and aperture) and a high sensitivity rating of up to ISO 6400 for use in low light conditions. The exceptionally powerful zoom lens is capable of focusing on subjects that are as close as 1 cm, and image-shift Vibration Reduction technology stabilises the image sensor to combat camera shake.

Shutter Priority and Manual Exposure Modes give you personal control over camera operation. A new Sports Continuous Mode lets you capture up to 30 frames at up to an amazing 13 FPS!

We were wondering what was missing from PMA 2008 pre-announcements: Nikon!
Here comes the new Nikon D60, supposedly replaces the well-known Nikon D40X, features 10.2 MP and introduces a new anti-dust system, active d-lighting, a stop-motion recording mode and Expeed branding.
Active d-lighting helps in the area where most DSLRs this year will compete on: extended dynamic range.
The stop-motion feature - welding together single frames into a movie - is a first-ever feature as far as we know in a DSLR.

At least three new lenses: a 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR, the Micro Nikkor 60mm f/2.8G ED for die-hard macro enthusiast and the PC-E Nikkor 24mm f/3.5D ED offering both tilt and shift movement.

Still have to sort out the number of new Coolpix cameras upcoming; the most prominent may be the P60, a 36-180mm-superzoom compact with optical viewfinder (a rarity) that replaces the Nikon Coolpix P50 losing somehow on the optical side at wide-angle (from 28mm up to 36mm).
The P60 features M exposure mode provides full control over both the aperture and shutter speed settings.

Check the Coolpix L16/L18 for budget-savy users, the S210 (8 MP), S520 (8 MP) and S550 (10 MP).
More details coming up!
