Here are the latest Nikon Df news:
After disappointing sales in Europe and the US, Nikon has not given up on their mirrorless solution. New Nikon 1 products are expected to be announced during the 2014 CES show in early January including a new V3 camera. The new Nikon 1 V3 will have a design closer to the Nikon Coolpix P-series (P7800). The rumor is that the accessory port will be removed and replaced with a fully compatible flash hot shoe to compliment the SB-300 ($147). The pop-up flash will also be able to act as a wireless commander.
Just saw this report on Reuters:
“Nikon is down 23.6 percent year-to-date and is the worst underperformer in the Nikkei this year, while the benchmark has rallied nearly 49 percent.”
Nikon had to cut their financial forecasts multiple times in the past few months.
