Nikon also denies rumors about purchasing Samsung’s camera division

 

Nikon EU confirmed with “confidence” that the rumors about Nikon purchasing Samsung NX are not true (what I have been saying for almost a week now). Samsung had a similar response last week.

I have never heard Nikon commenting on a rumor before. Ever. Here is a quote from the Spanish website Quesabesde (Google translation):

“Nikon confirms that the rumors are not true.” Such confidence is the answer given by the European division of the company when asked their representatives Quesabesde about the veracity of the information that speak of buying the Samsung NX system. A rumor that takes days hovering over the area and it has all the ingredients to become one of the most intense soap operas remainder of 2015 and early 2016.

“Soap opera” is actually a pretty good description…
