Nikon today unveiled a number of new point-and-shoots. The models ship this September.

According to PC Mag, there are, "six new models in all, highlights include the slim, sexy S60 with a 3.5-inch touch screen, the Wi-Fi-enabled S610c, and the P6000 a powerful yet portable shooter with built-in GPS capability."



Priced at $249.95, the budget Coolpix S560 camera is designed for extreme ease of use and intended for novice shooters. It's equipped with 15 scene modes to make capturing life simple. The camera features a 10-megapixel sensor, a 2.7 inch LCD screen, a 5x zoom lens, and an ISO setting that goes up to 3200.

The $349.95 Coolpix S60 is available in various colors. The camera offers 10 megapixels, a 5x zoom lens, and HDMI connectivity for outputing images and slideshows to HDTVs, and a 3.5-inch touch screen, which lets you navigate and even perform quick edits on your shots.
Billed by Nikon to be speed demons, the Coolpix S610 and S610c both have 10 megapixel image sensors, 3.6x zoom lenses offering a wide 28mm view on its wide end, and a swift promised start-up time of 0.7 seconds. The S610c has built in Wi-Fi capability. With it you'll be able to e-mail pictures to friends and family directly from the camera, or just upload them to Nikon's my PictureTown online storage and photo-sharing service. Expect the S610 and S610c to run for $279.95 and $329.95, respectively.

Nikon's S710 has a sharp 14.5-megapixel sensor and a 3.6x zoom lens with optical image stabilization. One of the camera's amazing features is an extremely sensitive ISO settings ranging up to 12800--something not even seen on some DSLRs. Compose your shots using the S710's 3-inch LCD screen for just $379.95.

For enthusiasts, Nikon has introduced the $499.95 Coolpix P6000. The 13.5-megapixel camera offers seems to be direct competition to Canon's G9. The device has RAW file capture, pop-up flash, and an optical viewfinder. You can also attach external flash units to the camera for more flexible lighting control. Even more amazing is the GPS capability, which lets photographers "geotag" the exact position, time, and date of their shots. Strange though is the Ethernet port instead of Wi-Fi capabilities.
