New black Nikon Zf camera?

By [NR] admin | Published: June 7, 2022

I received this picture of a black Nikon Zf camera from an anonymous source – I am not sure if such a camera is really coming, or this is just a very good photoshop job:


What do you think? Real or fake?

Update – the camera is fake. Here is another version of it:

Nikon is rumored to announce a new Nikon Z30 APS-C mirrorless camera soon

By [NR] admin | Published: June 6, 2022





In my previous post, I promised some more information on the rumored Nikon Z30 APS-S mirrorless camera:

  • The Nikon Z50 is approaching the end of life – it was announced back in October 2019 and is currently up to $200 off.
  • The new Nikon Z30 APS-C mirrorless camera is rumored to be announced soon, possibly in June (could come together with the Nikkor Z 400mm f/4.5 lens, but I am not sure since I do not have an exact release date yet).
  • The new camera should be called Nikon Z30 (a very low chance to be called Z70).
  • I was told that Nikon is done with the 24MP sensors for both APS-C and full-frame and all future cameras will have larger sensors.
  • New high-end Nikkor Z APS-C mirrorless lenses will also be announced at some point. Those lenses are not part of the current Z roadmap. Maybe we will see high-performance S-line DX-based Nikkor Z lenses?
  • Here are some crazy specs that will probably never happen (got them from a new anonymous source): possible 8k video, 36-46MP sensor, mechanical shutter, IBIS… not happening.

Many of you have probably already noticed that APS-C cameras are coming back to life after being abandoned by many manufacturers for years:

Breaking: Nikon to announce a new Nikkor Z 400mm f/4.5 mirrorless lens very soon

By [NR] admin | Published: June 6, 2022



Nikon is rumored to announce a new Nikkor Z 400mm f/4.5 lens very soon.

The official announcement is expected this month (June), but I do not have an exact date yet.

The new lens was described as 400mm f/4.5 to me, but there is a very low chance that the actual aperture will be f/4 (Nikon already had a 400mm f/4.5 lens in the past).

The new 400mm Z lens will be very compact as you can see from the latest roadmap above: 23cm in length, and 1,250g in weight – almost the same size as the Nikkor Z 70-200mm f/2.8 (21,98cm, 1,360g) and Nikkor Z 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 (22.2cm, 1,435g) lenses.
