Nikon announces Coolpix P6000 with GPS

[Admin]

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/images/nikon_p6000.gifNikon has announced its flagship compact, the Coolpix P6000. Built around a 13.5 megapixel, 1/1.72 inch sensor (roughly 0.41 cm2), the camera has a 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 or with the forthcoming Windows version of View NX or Windows Imaging Component compatible applications. The other stand-out feature is the inclusion of built-in GPS logging of the locations at which images were recorded. It is expected to start shipping in Septemer for around $500.

With this, can we thus safely expect to see GPS built-in to most top range dSLRs in the near future? This would be a great addition, especially with how cheap things like TomTom are becoming.
