Any more word on this microscope? I really want a portable microscope, and this looks great, but I’d much rather have one for my D200 than screw around with a Coolpix.

I live in Japan. If you seriously want one, drop me a line. You should still have my email laying around somewhere

perhaps American and eu laws/compliance issues?

What’s the point of only having it available in Japan? I don’t get it.

It depends on the price – let me know if you see it in a store somewhere, I will need the DSLR attachment as well. Thanks.

this is actually the old model – it doesn’t work with DSLR, only Coolpix, but good idea – I will keep an eye on it, I am not sure if they will ship to the US

yeah, and since being there why not to visit Nikon too? and bring some cameras, and also Canon, why not? and a 50″ TV, and a dog-robot…

Or just get one from Amazon.co.jp. They will have an option to view ship abroad, and they have an English language option (although it doesn’t cover everything, but it should suffice). Here’s the link:

Now we know why Nikon calls Macro “Micro”.

we requested one from Nikon’s New Zealand importer, the reply they recieved from Nikon Vision was:

“We regret to inform you that Fabre Photo EX is available only in Japanese market at this time.
International department has no plan to release it to the overseas.”

Can somebody get me one from Japan? Is it available in stores? Will they ship to the US?

I’d still be able to buy it from Japan though, right? That would suck if I couldn’t.
