As I mentioned previously the Nikon D3s is expected to be announced on October 15th, 2009 and today Nikon France kind of told us the same thing: they have scheduled multiple events during the Paris Expo and if you download the program (pdf file) you will see that they have several “Présentation nouveau reflex” which [...]

I posted that on PhotoRumors already, but since many Nikon fans are expecting an updated 35mm f/1.4 lens from Nikon, here is a Zeiss rumor for you (you will still get only manual focus with a Zeiss lenses, which you can also get with the Nikon 35mm f/1.4 AI-S lens):
In his Leica M9 & Nikon D3x [...]
UPDATE: looking at the translation again – I think it says “replaced with” instead of “replacement and”, so we are talking about one potential new lens here: AF-S 100-500mm f/4-5.6 IF-ED VR
This rumor is about a new lens from Nikon to be released in Spring 2010 (or around PMA):
The current model 80-400 f/4.5-5.6 VR will [...]

D3s
Ok, rumors are flying fast this weekend – now I can say that the Nikon D3s has a 99% release probability. Still waiting on confirmations for the lens(es). Expected announcement date: October 15th, 2009.
As reported previously, some of the Nikon D3s “improvements” will be 14fps and full 1080p HD video.

Based on the stars alignment and the moon phase, I am now 75% confident about a Nikon announcement during the second week of October. Expected is a Nikon D3 refresh (probably called Nikon D3s – not sure yet) and at least a Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED VR lens.
I expect the official press invitations to [...]
I received this tip several days ago and was trying to gather some more information before publishing it online. This is what we have so far:
According to this post on the Japanese site kakaku the user “That’s 235’s” claims that a new Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED VR lens will be release soon. Let’s [...]
