Rumors: the long awaited Nikon high-end/premium compact camera coming in early 2016

By [NR] admin | Published: December 16, 2015

There is a very good chance that in addition to the D5 in early 2016 we will finally see the long awaited Nikon compact high-end/premium compact camera. I have been reporting for months now that Nikon is working on a new camera(s) with a large/larger sensor (1″ and/or APS-C). More than one version is also a possibility – as many as three different models could be introduce and they could have different lenses (something like the Sigma dp0-dp4 range of cameras maybe? I am not sure). The new camera(s) will be marketed as “always in your bag” and will be targeted for advanced/semi-professional photographers.

There is also a small chance that this rumor is for a new Nikon 1 camera.

The picture on top is a concept Nikon Coolpix camera designed by Nikolay Komaro.

By [NR] admin | Published: December 14, 2015

I received few more Nikon D5 pictures from Asia. You can now see the third Fn2 button and the back layout of the camera. The Nikon D5 is currently in production in the Sendai manufacturing plant in Japan. I can also now confirm the 20MP sensor I initially reported back in February.
