Despite the poor economy in America, consumer electronics sales are expected to grow significantly in the US this holiday season. Among the top items of holiday, wish lists are computers, phones, and digital cameras.

One of the most interesting digital cameras to hit the market recently is the Nikon Coolpix S60.

The camera features HDMI connectivity and can send slideshows out to a HDTV. Other features include smile Shutter, ISO 3200 capability, auto scene selector, and three image enhancement features. The camera features 10MP resolution and saves to SD cards.
