Nikon Coolpix P7100 camera Nikon Coolpix P7100 will not be replaced this time around

Several readers asked me if the Nikon P7100 will be refreshed in the next round of Coolpix announcements. Nikon releases point and shoot cameras twice a year, but the different models are usually refreshed every 12 months. This time around we can expect an update of the cameras announced back in February, 2011: P300, P500, S9100, L120, S6100, S3100, S4100, and L24. Later this year (usually in August) we can see new versions of the cameras announced in August, 2011: P7100, AW100, S1200pj, S8200, S6200, S4150, S6150 and S100.

Expect to see more Coolpix cameras with built-in GPS functionality.

Nikon 1 2000mm f10 Celestron reflex lens Nikon V1 + FT1 adapter + Celestron Reflex 2000mm f/10 = 5400mm

I cannot get enough of those crazy Nikon 1 lens combinations. This setup was sent by Peter Korp and includes Nikon V1 + FT-1 adapter + Nikon T adapter + Celestron reflex 2000mm f/10 which makes this a 5400mm weapon (FX equivalent). Both objects were approximately a mile away. Electronic shutter, self timer at 10 seconds and focus magnification were used to take those two samples - the first one was captured at ISO 100, the second at ISO 800 (click on image for full res version):
