Nikon Camera With Built In GPS

-
Nikon has come out with a really fascinating up market point and shoot camera. It is called the P6000. It will be officially out in a few weeks, but you can already place an advance order at Amazon.

Technically it is not an SLR, and you cannot change the lenses. But listen to these specifications:

---Built in GPS.
---Optical Vibration Reduction and image stabilization.
---Nikon lens made with ED glass.
---13.5 megapixels.
---Auto ISO 64 to 6400.
---High TV quality movies with sound.
---2.7 inch LCD and an optical viewfinder.
---Manual focus, aperture or shutter priority, manual mode.
---Can shoot in raw mode that Windows recognizes.

This looks like a good camera except that the sensor size is really tiny. Another approach to this is adding a GPS to the D300. This is what I have done and it works great!
