Nikon's pocket shooter has an iPhone-like touchscreen, but as a camera, it falls a bit short.
Touch-screen camera with 5x optical zoom.
The touch-screen Nikon Coolpix S60 is certainly sexy, but its images are underwhelming at best.

Nikon Coolpix S60 Review
The Nikon Coolpix S60 is one of the more distinctive compact digital cameras around, with a "wave-surface" design and large 3.5 inch LCD display. Furthermore, the S60 is almost completely controlled via its touch-screen LCD, even including zooming in and out. Other standout features of the Nikon S60 include a 5x zoom lens with Vibration Reduction, Scene Auto Selector for beginners, Smile Timer with blink detection, and and a HDMi output for viewing photos on a HDTV set. The Nikon Coolpix S60 costs around €349 / £299.99 / $349.95.
