Nikon financial results for the year ended March 31, 2023: revenue up 28%, operating profit up 122%


Nikon’s financial results for the year are out (by RC Jenkins). For Imaging, Revenue was up 28%; and Operating Profit was up 122%.

Average revenue from any Nikon product (ILC+lens+compact, Nikon’s FYs, ending in March):

Nikon introduces their latest full-frame mirrorless camera: the Nikon Z8. The camera offers impressive image quality, an advanced autofocus system and high speed. In this blog post we take a closer look at the technical highlights of the Nikon Z8 and show the similarities and differences to the Nikon Z9. The new Nikon Z8 will be available from the end of May.

Smaller and lighter than the flagship Z9, the Z8’s body features a professional-grade weather-sealed housing and the same cold tolerance as Nikon’s top-of-the-line D6 and Z9 models to ensure reliable performance in low temperatures. The Z8 is also Nikon’s first mirrorless camera with two USB-C ports, enabling fast and reliable data transfer during charging.
