Lots of cool new camera announcements coming out of PMA2006 – a big trade show for the digital photography industry. One that caught my eye was the Nikon Coolpix S6:
You all know that I love my Coolpix 5600, and was almost tempted into buying the slim, sleek little S3 when I thought my 5600 had died. But patience appears to have paid off.
The S6 has a 6MP sensor, a huge 3″ LCD (that’s bigger than my Samsung i730 Pocket PC phone!), and built-in 802.11b/g WiFi. No word on how much it will cost (I’d guess around $400), but it’s supposed to be available this month.
I may have just found my next digital camera… However, there’s an updated iteration of a model that I’m always teetering on the edge of getting that’s also clamoring for my attention. More on that soon…

Hi this has nothing to do with tht camera but i just wanted to say me and my friends think you are a legend! ever since in november we saw your psp opening video! we love you here in england!!! you are legendary!
Heh. Thanks! I’m flattered.
I’ve been waiting for the PMA to happen before I buy a new camera, and it looks like it was a good thing. While I’m more interested in DSLRs, my compact camera could use an upgrade too, and having built-in wifi is just too cool a feature not to buy into.
Great find with this camera, I am getting myself one.
