Another Nikon D400 book shows up in Germany

By [NR] admin | Published: February 22, 2010

There was already a Nikon D400 book listed on Amazon Germany a year ago. The publisher came out officially and said that this was a mistake. Few months later they released the same book (same ISBN) with a Nikon D300s name instead. Now we have a new Nikon D400 book listed on Amazon Germany (from […]

Nikon’s PMA press release – nothing new

By [NR] admin | Published: February 21, 2010

Update #2: also don’t hold your breath for the Nikon press event in Japan next Tuesday – it will probably be similar to this one. Update #1: I think Zoltar misunderstood this press release. In this announcement Nikon is talking about two DSLRs – the D3000 and D3s, but those are not new. I also […]

Weird snapshots from the Olympics and PMA
