Nikon D850 now in stock (update: sold out)


The Nikon D850 is currently in stock at eBay sold by BuyDig who is an authorized Nikon US dealer (see list).

This is a brand new camera with USA warranty sold for MSRP that comes with free shipping and free accessories. More than 10 pieces were available at the time of this post.

Please note that BuyDig doesn’t have the D850 listed in stock on their online store.

Update: several readers contacted BuyDig and it seems that this listing was submitted by mistake. BuyDig said that they expect their next D850 shipment on September 30th.

Second shipment of Nikon D850 cameras hitting US retailers today


I received several emails from readers that a new batch of Nikon D850 cameras started shipping today in the US (see also the reports on the Nikon D850 Facebook group). I believe the second batch will still not be enough to cover all existing pre-orders.

Check D850 availability: B&H | Adorama | Amazon | BuyDig | BestBuy | Cameta | eBay | WEX | Jessops

Nikon is still expected to announce a replacement for the Coolpix P900 camera

Nikon Coolpix P900 camera

Nikon is still expected to announce a replacement for the Nikon Coolpix P900 superzoom camera. The new model is rumored to have a monster 125x zoom or 24-3000mm equivalent lens (the P900 has 83x zoom).

I do not know if the new model will have RAW support.

The price of the P900 recently went up to $696.95 (it was originally $599.96) – probably as a result of Sony’s $1,700 RX10 IV camera that was announced last week.

The good news is that refurbished Nikon Coolpix P900 cameras are currently selling for $469.95 at Adorama.
