where there’s smoke there’s fire

Most of the products reported on my previous “what to expect” posts are already announced. This is an updated list on what could be coming from Nikon in the next few months:

Nikon DSLR cameras

There are few possibilities here but I do not have any good intel yet:

• Nikon D3300 replacement (announced January 2014 ) – after the Canon T6 announcement, I think a D3300 replacement is even more likely (believe it or not, Nikon and Canon still refresh their products on a very similar schedule)
• Nikon D610 replacement (announced October 2013, but the original D600 was introduced in September 2012)
• Nikon D750 replacement (announced September 2014)
• Nikon D810 replacement (announced June, 2014)

Based on the announcement dates listed above, I think the D610 and D3300 have the best chance of being refreshed next/first.

New Df-like camera is rumored for Nikon’s 100th anniversary in 2017.
