The next three days

By [NR] admin | Published: February 7, 2010

The good news: the 24mm f/1.4 and 16-35mm f/4 VR lenses are coming. The bad news: I don’t have an exact date for this announcement. As far as I know, there is no press conference scheduled for this release next week. The new products can be out as early as tomorrow and as late as [...]

The waiting game

By [NR] admin | Published: February 2, 2010

11:09 pm – I guess that’s it for today. There should be more, in few days. 11:05 pm – Coolpixes announced. 9:52 pm – Nikon Norway again: in the Press Room the new 300mm 2.8 VRII and the teleconverter are listed twice – maybe a placeholder for the upcoming two new lenses? 9:32 pm - A [...]

“In few days”

By [NR] admin | Published: February 1, 2010

After spending almost an hour trying to translate the few cryptic sentences I received, the final word on the lenses release date is “in few days”. We know for sure that Nikon has a press events scheduled in multiple countries on February 3rd, 2010. We also know that the new Coolpixes will be announced on that event. [...]

Correction

By [NR] admin | Published: February 1, 2010

Sorry, I am on the road and those updates are coming from my iPhone. The two new lenses will be released in few days (Google translation sucks). Tomorrow is a “Coolpix day”. As previously expected, Nikon will have two press conferences. Not sure about the exact day. I will know more later.

I think I know

By [NR] admin | Published: January 27, 2010

Nikon will have only one press conference on February 3rd, 2010 (the actual announcement could be on February 2nd, depending on your time zone). I never got any information about a second press conference (like they did last year). It is now also too late to schedule one. This could only mean that Nikon doesn’t [...]

What to expect from Nikon next week

By [NR] admin | Published: October 10, 2009

UPDATE: Nikon Germany and Nikon Sweden websites are/were down today. The “Presse” link has some serious errors on nikon.de & nikon.se. Same on nikon-europe.com. Problems with the new press release(s)? Nikon D3s should be a sure thing. This is a collection of the rumored Nikon D3s specs: ISO 200-12800 New ISO range HI-3 at 102,400 ISO [...]

“Rumor has it… based on a true rumor”

By [NR] admin | Published: September 26, 2009

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 [...]
