The Kodak EasyShare V1253 (above, $300) shoots 12-megapixel images in wide-screen format (that's 16:9 aspect ratio in geekspeak), so your vacation pics display nicely on your HDTV (dock sold separately; $100). The 8-megapixel Nikon Coolpix S51c ($329) has built-in wi-fi, so you can e-mail snaps right from the camera or beam them to your Flickr account for friends, family and fans to enjoy immediately.
