Nikon has announced its latest compact, the Coolpix P6000. It features a 13.5 megapixel shot resolution, 4x zoom starting at a respectably wide-angle – equivalent to 28mm. It also records RAW files in a new NRW format that can be converted in-camera. The other cool feature is the new GPS capability that will automatically geo-tag your photos with the exact location of where you shot that picture. It can record TV-quality movies with sound; directly into your SD/SDHC card. P6000 inherits the design of Nikon’s award-winning P5000 series with further refinements. Its SLR-like grip, for example, is of perfect size, shape and texture for great handling. The ergonomic button layout has been designed considering finger movements during shooting. It uses the light and durable magnesium alloy on the front surface of the body making it look elegant and desirable. It is currently only available in black. It is expected to start shipping in September for around $500. [Dpreview]
