Nikon and Panasonic have plans for Wi-Fi cameras

Nikon and Panasonic are coming out in the next two to three months with Wi-Fi enabled cameras.

The Nikon CoolPix S52c ($299.95) nd Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-TZ50 ($449.95) are 9-megapixel cameras that give users the ability to snap pictures and upload images to web sites like the photo-sharing site, Flickr.com, Google’s photo organizer, Picasa, or maybe a social-networking site, according to Wi-FiPlanet.com.

Nikon’s CoolPix works through Picturetown, the company’s online photo sharing service. With Panasonic’s Lumix, users can get a free year of T-Mobile Wi-Fi service for the camera only, with its purchase, but it works with any home or commercial network.

With the volume of photos that people post to Facebook and MySpace, this is a quick way to share the moment rather than wait to return to your computer.
