I received some additional information that the six new Viltrox AF full-frame lenses for Nikon Z-mount will be officially announced in July. The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.8 Z lens could come earlier, but this is still not confirmed.
Viltrox recently showed six new autofocus mirrorless lenses for Nikon Z-mount at the China International Photographic Equipment and Technology Fair (China P&E) in Beijing, China:
Following up on my previous post, I feel comfortable enough to confirm that Nikon will have a new product(s) announcement next week, on or around June 2-3. I am expecting a new APS-C camera (retro?), and new mirrorless lenses like the Nikkor Z 100-400mm S and Nikkor Z macro. If the APS-C mirrorless becomes a reality, we should get also some new DX mirrorless lenses. I am still not 100% sure of the exact list of new products, so please stay tuned for more details and if you have any additional information, please contact me anxiously here.
Today Nikon released two new firmware updates for the Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm lens ($297) and A1000 camera (already discontinued):
I have been reporting for a while that Nikon will announce a new APS-C based mirrorless camera. Back in February I mentioned that the official announcement is expected in the first half of 2021. We also have fresh rumors that Nikon could announce new products in the first week of June. Now the interesting part – the new Nikon APS-C mirrorless camera could be retro inspired:
There is a Nikon event scheduled in Aisa for the first week of June. I am still not sure if this will be an official new product announcement or an internal Nikon event about upcoming products that will be introduced later. Stay tuned for more details.
