The official Nikon announcement should happen tonight around midnight US Eastern time (±1 hour). I expect that some website will leak details earlier. Now is a good time to check your local Nikon website for any visual changes in the design, listings, placement of products, etc.
Another Nikon day in Slovakia on August 25, 2011 with “unique presentation of new products in portfolio“:
Nikon D700 is now back in stock at B&H and Amazon:
The D700 was out of stock for several weeks in all major US online retailers (and many other countries).
Adorama lists on their website that the new Nikon 40mm f/2.8G AF-S DX Micro lens will start shipping on August 25th:
Some sample images taken with that lens showed up online today on this Swiss website.
The Nikon 50mm f/1.8G lens is currently in stock at Amazon and Adorama.
Reportedly the press releases distributed by Nikon in Europe for the 24th included only the new Coolpix point and shoot models. Even the mirrorless camera was not included. There is still a chance that Nikon will send out another press release tomorrow or they may just announce new products directly on their website without notifying the press (if there are other products).
There is still a very good chance for a second announcement in September.
