Back to what we do best – Nikon rumors. This was sent in by a reader:

I know we’ve all heard this a 1000x but I was at my local camera store on Saturday and asked them if the Nikon rep had mentioned any new releases from Nikon. The salesman told me that the rep told him that Nikon had the updated 80-400mm VR coming soon. When I asked how soon was soon, he said the rep didn’t mention any release date.

FYI the current Nikon 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D was released back in 2000.

I will start giving probability % on each of the rumors I post – I find this to be a better system and many readers have asked for it. This number will reflect the reliability of the source, the number of times I have received this rumors, some common sense and my personal gut feeling, which should improve over time. Each of the percentage groups will be included as a tag for easy access and filtering.
