New Nikon patent for a 1 Nikkor 10-30mm f/3.5-6.3 VR mirrorless lens



Nikon filed a new patent in Japan for a 1 Nikkor 10-30mm f/3.5-6.3 VR mirrorless lens (for 1″ sensor). There have been several Nikon 1 lens patents in the past few months:

For reference, here is the list of currently available Nikon 1 lenses:

The last Nikon 1 lens was introduced in March, 2014 (together with the V3). I expect new Nikon 1 products to be announced in the upcoming weeks/months – maybe before the PhotoPlus show in NYC that takes place October 22 -24 since Canon will have a new EOS M camera.
