Nikon “BIG” poll

By [NR] admin | October 1, 2008
Polls have been pretty accurate in the past.
Do you think the Japanese Nikon ads are real and represent what’s next?

    Of COURSE these Nikon ads are fake… the faker even left “nikonrumors.com” in the ad! I don’t think Nikon would be so sloppy.

    Sorry but how dumb are you? Nikonrumors obviously put that in afterwards!

    The original add was in Rangefinder Magazine, so maybe it should be specified that we talk about the new photos of off-prints..

    In the first AD the sensor is rectangular instead a square shape according to the rumors. so i Think is a fake!

    I don’t know what that “big” thing will be, but I’m sure that the sensor photo was a bad photoshop work!
    Along with the third flange the shopper removed also the diaphragm lever!
    The AF motor can be removed but the auto diaphragm lever must stay or the new big-ground-breaking Nikon will work in stopdown…

    Unless it uses the aperture system in the new PC-E lenses (which, coincidently, are the right size)

    The thing that got me was the third flange. I barely voted no, because of the possibility of a locking pin, but I voted no

    I’m pretty sure that author of the “ads” reads nikonrumours and simply does it for fun. According to the comments of Japanese speaking guys the ads don’t even come from Japan.

    Nikon medium format (MX) analysis

    Many readers think that those Nikon medium format ads are fake (even though the poll says otherwise). I would agree if it wasn’t for ad #3 and the ad #1. Each one of the remaining ads could be created based on existing Nikon product images and a good knowledge of PS, but the viewfinder in ad #3 looks real to me. Can someone think of a camera that has similar shaped viewfinder? This seems to be difficult to fake (but not impossible). The other problem I have is the red triangle on the handle of the first ad – the …
