By [NR] admin | Published: February 6, 2011

There will be no new DSLR announcement during the Nikon press conferences scheduled for February 9th, 2011.

Nikon Coolpix S8100 compared to Canon S95 and why Nikon needs a serious compact camera

Nikon is preparing a major announcement at the end of August

Expect major announcements during that time frame (my guess: D3s and/or D300s replacement). This is not really surprising, since Nikon likes to make announcements at the end of Summer (the D3, D300, D90, D3100, D7000, many lenses and Coolpix cameras were […]

Update on the Nikon Coolpix P500

By [NR] admin | Published: January 18, 2011

Just a quick update on the rumored Nikon Coolpix P500: in addition to the extra wheel on the lens for faster zooming, the camera will have a 22.5-810mm (x36) zoom and a 12MP back-illuminated CMOS sensor (probably made by Sony). The current P100 model has 10.3MP back-illuminated CMOS sensor and a 26-678mm (x26) zoom.
