By [NR] admin | Published: January 11, 2021


Nikon Japan (translated) is now listing the Nikon D3500 and D5600 DSLR cameras as “old products” which historically is an indication that the two models are already or will soon be discontinued.

This opens the door for the already rumored entry level Nikon Z camera (Z30?).
