Update:
Thanks for all the translations – the only hint in the interview was about a possible AF-S 50mm f/1.8:
“I transcribed the interview and it is mostly about the new 50 mm 1.4 and DSLR in general.
The reporter asks how come there is no 50 mm 1.8 since the 1.4 is so much more expensive. Johan, the Nikon guy then replied: Good question, but as we say, we have not stopped making products, we will have to see what tomorrow brings.
Then some talk about market-share on compact and DSLR and finally some questions about how the market has reacted to the D90 and if there will be more DSLR with film capabilities in the future.
As Mattias says: Just a hint about a 50 mm 1.8 AFS is what I can get out of the interview.”
I’ve said it many times before – this blog is a collaborative effort from Nikon fans around the world. Today I need some help from our audience in Sweden.
Here is a Photokina interview with Nikon regarding the new Nikon AF-S 50mm f/1.4G lens:
I need some translation please. I have a feeling that this interview may contain some hints about future Nikon products (specifically lenses). You will ask why? I watched the Leica interview from the same series (in English) and they did talk about upcoming Leica products. I could be wrong – unfortunately Google does not provide video translation yet.
Thanks!
