Jeff-c has spoken

Nobody knows who Jeff-c is, but he has an incredible history of knowing what’s coming next from Nikon. I don’t think he has ever been wrong. He (or she) has a better track record than Thom Hogan (please correct me if I am wrong). This is what he had to say today (source): Nikon was […]
