The rumors about a Coolpix camera with 1″ sensor and a new compact (sub-D3x00) DSLR line are really nothing new, but now I got some more details on those two products:
Nikon D2300
- World’s smallest DSLR camera (small like the Canon Rebel SL1)
- There is a possibility that the D2300 will be the first DSLR-like camera without an optical viewfinder
- D2300 is a preliminary name and it can change
- Weight: 290g
- Announcement in May 2014
- The Nikon D2300 could be the 3rd DSLR camera that will be announced this year (in addition to the D4s and D7200)
Nikon Coolpix P8000
- Announcement in April-May 2014
- 24- 120mm equivalent f/2.0 – 3.0 lens with 3 ED and 1 ASP glass elements
- 1″ inch sensor (first Coolpix with 1″ sensor)
- 3.0″ LCD screen
- P A S M mode
Note that those two cameras are not scheduled to be announced during the CP+ show that starts in Japan this week, but Nikon may still decide to “pre-announce” them just like they did with the D4s. If you have any additional information on those two models (or any other Nikon products), do not hesitate to contact me (anonymously).
