This is probably my last Nikon Z6 recap post – by now there should be enough Z6 information out on the Internet and from now on I will cover only major Z6 related news (for a more detailed Z6/Z7 coverage, like the Facebook page and/or join the Facebook group):
→ First Nikon Z6/Z7 camera leather cases are already available for sale on eBay and Rakuten.
Most of the Black Friday deals are still going on for Cyber Monday (check Adorama, B&H Photo, Amazon, WEX UK for details):
→ Nikon released new firmware update version 1.4 for the Coolpix A900 camera.
→ Harvard researchers found a way to correct chromatic aberrations across all kinds of lenses.

So then I checked the Nikon Japan site and they weren’t there. So while sometimes lenses hang around for years after Nikon stops selling them in Japan, this could still be a sign that they’re discontinued or going to soon be. So then I decided to cross-check every lens, and I found all of the following (in addition to the ones above) are no longer on the Japan website:
Tamron released new firmware updates that will make the following three Tamron lenses compatible with the Nikon Z7 camera and FTZ adapter:
On November 16 Tamron already announced firmware updates for the following three lenses:
The lens firmware can be updated with the separately sold TAP-in Console.
