Bluetooth Cameras

Hi All

Ive had Nikon Coolpix cameras since i started with the 775, i now have the 7900. It may not be the best camera in the world, but for point and click and family snaps it does me proud.

But, im now thinking i should change and id like to get one that has Bluetooth, if this is possible? Anything around the £200 to £250 range would be fine, is there such a thing as a bluetooth camera and anyone got any recommendations?

Id love to stay with Nikon, but if not possible i will change

Although I've never used a bluetooth camera, I do know that bluetooth is SLOW.

Copying 100mb of picture is gonna take all night.

I'm not aware of any cameras with Bluetooth. There are cameras with Wifi but you would be better off with a USB card reader imho.

Why do you need bluetooth, to connect to a phone or something? It would be much better to just buy a cheap USB memory card reader (mine cost £5 and reads several formats) if you want to copy to a computer.

The Kodak V610 is the only camera I know of with Bluetooth, and I think the main point of it is 'Easyshare', as Kodak call it, so you can quickly send to mobile phones. It looks pretty cool, gadget wise, but not the cream of the crop quality wise, according to reviews. But generally quite well received
