Update: it seems that this iPhone app is for the US market only.
Nikon somehow forgot to officially announce this new iPhone app (available in the app store since October 19th, 2009). This is Nikon’s second iPhone app (the first one was My PictureTown). The app is free and Nikon claims that will constantly update the content, which is a great idea. You can get more details on Nikon USA website.
I think this is suppose to be the official press release (taken from Nikon USA website):
Update #2: Nikon D300s rebate in Germany (this rebate seems to be for whole sale only).
Update: Nikon rebates in France are already official:
In his post from October 26th, Thom Hogan writes about the upcoming Nikon instant rebates program in the US that should be starting any day now. Some rebates may be valid only for a week, others will be “very modest in amount”.

I will stick with my initial report on the next set of Nikon lenses (done before the D3s announcement):
Nikon AF-S 24mm f/1.4 lens: I expect this lens to be announced during the first quarter of 2010. Did not receive a lot of communication on that lens.
Nikon AF-S 85mm f/1.4 lens: based on a previously filed patent I think this lens should be coming soon – I say latest 9 months from now and as soon as December, 2009 unless Nikon filed that patent to throw us off. I had very strong indications that the Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR lens would be released (see this post), but I would never think that Nikon will release a DX lens with the Nikon D3s (actually my exact comment two week ago was “this is still a possibility”).
Nikon AF-S 100-500mm f/4-5.6 IF-ED VR lens: this lens should be released first or second quarter of 2010.
Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED VR: this rumor came from a Japanese forum. I have no other info on this lens.
We may have another Nikon announcement before this year is over.
The rumor is also that Cliff Mautner (click here for his 70-200mm f2.8G ED VRII review) is testing six more new Nikon lenses (source). This is what he wrote on his blog:
“The big box of lenses I just received will be heading back to Japan when I’m finished the campaign shoots, unless I accidentally forget to enclose the new 70-200 VRII with the package (just kidding Soichi-san)!!”
I don’t think he is working on a Nikon campaign for old products, so we will have some new glass coming soon.
PhotographyBay received a tip that Nikon will not be updating the D700, but instead will release a completely new model – Nikon D800 with the following specs:
At that point I do not have any reliable info on that rumor. All sources point that D700 will not be updated anytime soon. Maybe this really means a new D800 that could coexists with the D700.
I would like to think that our complains yesterday were heard 🙂 Here is the link. Mac versions also updated! FYI: Windows 7 will be released on October 22nd.
