September 3rd again (updated)

Update: there was a press conference in France on Sept. 3rd, but there were no new products announced.
We reported this rumor back in July and I* am still getting more emails about a possible Nikon announcement on September 3rd – few comments under different posts also suggest the same:
“I can tell you for sure, there will be an announcement on September the 3rd. I swear, but can’t tell you more… NDA. Something big.”
Those messages are NOT from our regular/reliable sources. The good part is that we just have to wait 3 more days to find out. Again, we do not feel confident about this date – this, however may change in the next 2 days. Stay tuned!
* – I decided to start using “I” instead of “we”, since the number of people behind NR seems to be a concern to some readers.


Update: Nikon is NOT on the list of exhibitors at this year IFA (Consumer Electronics Unlimited) show which is currently ongoing in Berlin (Aug 27 – Sept 3). This would be also a weird place to announce any PRO Nikon equipment (CONSUMER show). It’s just the date (Sept. 3rd) that is bothering me.
