Nikon Coolpix A Sony RX1 Fuji X-Pro1 size comparison
I received information that the Nikon Coolpix A compact camera (see review) is no longer available to distributers in Germany and will no longer be manufactured. There is a good chance that Nikon may introduce a new model at Photokina if they plan to continue this product line. The Coolpix still sells for the introductory price of $1,096.95, while refurbished models can be found for $769.95 which is still more expensive then its main competitor, the Ricoh GR.
