More on the red Nikon D3100 camera

It seems that the new red Nikon D3100 will be available for sale only in Europe (GermanySwedenRomania, etc.) and Japan. According to the official German press release, the red D3100 kit will cost 599 EUR and will be available exclusively on amazon.de. The release date is September 22nd (few days earlier for Japan).

Next Nikon announcement is on September 21st. I do not expect anything but the mirrorless system to be introduced on that date. I also do not expect any other announcements in September (no full frame cameras). There will be more new Nikon products introduced later in 2011.

I will be publishing few guests posts in the next few days to kill some time.
