Nikon announced their Q3 financial results (for the year ending March 2017, direct link to PDF presentation) here are the highlights from the report:
Here is what I think a very good video by Tony Northrup summing up Nikon’s announcements from yesterday and looking into the future of the company:

Nikon just did something I have been predicting for a while – they canceled all three of their DL compact premium cameras because of “profitability concerns” and provided no information on any future development/release in the DL line. Here is the official statement:

In addition to canceling the DL line of premium compact cameras, Nikon also issued several statements describing “extraordinary loss“, “fundamental company-wide restructuring” and a revision of their last financial forecast:


Adorama got a batch of refurbished Nikon D500 cameras and is selling them for $1,599.95 with free expedited shipping ($397 or 20% off from the regular MSRP of $1,996.95). This refurbished D500 camera comes with a 90-day return-to-manufacturer warranty. Limited supply available.

→ The Nikon D750 seems to be out of stock in many stores in Germany and the current wait time is 1-2 months. Really strange development on one of the best selling Nikon cameras (maybe a replacement is coming soon?).

→ New low price for the Nikon D810 (gray market): $1,899.

→ Another strange development – two days ago Nikon Japan introduced a new D5300 kit with the new AF-P 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens (the D5300 was announced in 2013 and is still available for sale).

→ Nikon received the “iF Design Award 2017” for five products.
