Nikon Mirrorless EVIL camera

New Nikon camera registered in Indonesia

A new Nikon camera was registered today at the Indonesian Communications Agency (the camera will be produced in Thailand). My guess is that this is for a new Nikon 1 mirrorless camera (Nikon 1 J6 probably) that will be announced in early 2017. Update: the N1610 will most likely be a DSLR camera since it will be […]

Dpreview interview with Nikon: “we’ll keep doing what we’re doing”

Today Dpreview published their interview with Nikon at Photokina and as the editor mentioned in the comments, Nikon’s answer on the future of the DSLR (and few other questions) appears to be “we’ll keep doing what we’re doing“. Here are few other quotes that just confirm this statement:
