Here are some rumors on what to expect from the recent Nikon acquisition of RED:
- Future Nikon sensors will be co-developed with RED and mass-produced for lower prices.
- Nikon will start making cinema lenses for Z mount with T stops – I assume the next RED camera will be with Z-mount.
- Nikon will slowly introduce new RED formats and video recording options to Nikon cameras.
- The Nikon Z6III camera announcement may have something to do with the RED acquisition.
- We should expect some kind of a Nikon/RED announcement at the 2024 NAB show next month (maybe the Z6III?).
- Nikon N-RAW will become RED RAW. Adobe just mentioned online that they will no longer make upgrades to Nikon N-RAW because it will be replaced (see the Ado\be developer’s pinned post – click for larger view):
