Google found Nikon D700x, D800 entries on nikonusa.com

Halcyon Habit from www.halcyonhabit.com sent me this interesting info: if you Google d700x site:www.nikonusa.com you will get two results (this search is looking for D700x keywords in all nikonusa.com pages):

nikon d700x nikonusa.com  Google found Nikon D700x, D800 entries on nikonusa.com

This could mean that at some point of time Nikon USA had the following link online:

The last post on the “I am Nikon” campaign

Update: IamNikon.com is now live.

iamnikon logo The last post on the I am Nikon campaign

“Nikon is launching a pan-European advertising campaign, called “I am Nikon”, which aims to connect the brand’s heritage of professionalism, authenticity and innovation to an audience of aspiring photographers. The campaign will appear throughout Europe and South Africa, with the first TV ad airing on UK television over the Easter weekend from 2 to 5 April 2010 on ITV, Channel Four and Channel Five.”

Read the whole article @ MarketingWeek. This campaign was created by by Jung von Matt/Spree advertising agency (the company that registered some of the IamNikon domain names). IamNikon.com still redirects to the default Nikon Europe site. No new products were announced today.

Update: The last card from France of course says “I am Nikon”. It contained also a second flyer about the new campaign (thanks Romain Heuillard for the pictures):

  • Nikon D700 is no longer available through the Army, Air Force Exchange System (AAFES) – the camera is no longer listed as available (Nikon equipment purchased through AAFES is shipped directly from Nikon). We had similar reports in the past – see here, here and here. In addition, Best Buy company computers are showing a mid-August date as end-of-life for the Nikon D700 (not sure how this works, but this could mean that they would have to return unsold stock and couldn’t sell the product after that date).

Card #1: “I am looking at the world”

Update: a maybe better translation of this card would be “I am an eye on the world” or “I am a way to look at the world”.

Card #1 “Je suis un regard sure le monde” which should translate to “I am looking at the world” (thanks for the translation Mistral). This is it – the last card on Monday will probably say “I am Nikon”.

Card #2: “I am Neil Armstrong”

Nobody got this one right – card #2 is “I am Neil Armstrong” in reference to Neil Armstrong, the first person to land on the moon (thanks Romain Heuillard for the pictures). A nice reminder for the fact that NASA is using Nikon equipment.

One more, hopefully final, update on the instant Nikon rebate program: there are few entries on Adorama that allows you combine one DSLR body with two lenses (24-70 & 70-200):

Here is a complete list of rebates from B&H and Adorama:

B&H (listed by lens):

Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 VRII:

Nikkor 24-70 f/2.8:

Nikkor 24-120 f/3.5-5.6 VR:

Nikkor 18-200 DX VRII:

Here is another way to get to the different rebates options them: click on each of the models from the list below and then navigate to the “available kits” link for all the possible options:

Adorama (listed by DSLR):

Nikon D3000 combos:

Nikon D5000 combos:

Nikon D90 combos:

Nikon D300s combos:

Nikon D700 combos:

Nikon D3s combos:

Nikon D3x combos:

To be sure you get the final discounted price, please add the items to the shopping cart.

Those are instant rebates, not mail-in rebates.

As far as I know, Amazon is not taking part of those instant Nikon rebates.

OneCall.com seems to have some of the rebates listed.

The instant rebate program from Nikon ends on March 27th, 2010.

Canon got their own rebates – one week after Nikon :)
