Nikon at 2012 Photokina

  

For the 2012 Photokina show, Nikon is expected to introduce the full frame Nikon D600 DSLR camera and a new Nikkor 1 18.5mm f/1.8 mirrorless lens (50mm equivalent). The official announcement is expected on or around September 13th, 2012. Nikon already announced several compact cameras, including their first Android based Coolpix model. The Nikkor 800mm f/5.6 lens will also be on display at their Photokina booth.

Back in 2009 when I started PhotoRumors.com, my main goal was to support NikonRumor and LeicaRumors with additional news and rumors from other manufacturers. This was the reason I never reported any Nikon and Leica related topics on this blog - I assumed that everybody was already reading my other two websites. Moving forward to 2012: looking at the blog's statistics, I realized that PhotoRumors has grown and now has its own audience. I already received several emails from readers asking me why I don't cover Nikon and Leica products. Starting from today I am planning to report on all major Nikon and Leica related news on PhotoRumors. To better understand my audience, please vote on this poll:

    I voted for “I only read Photorumors”, but to be honest, neither option was good for me.

    I read Nikonrumors because I know you don’t post Nikon rumours on Photorumors, but I’d actually prefer if you just post everything on photorumors so that it’s a one-stop shop for rumours.

    I’m a Nikon guy (well, I was until I started using the Fuji X100), but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to read Canon news or rumours, or Pentax, Sony, or any micro-4/3 rumours as well.

      If I post everything on Photorumors, the blog will be too “crowded”. I personally cannot read more than 1-2 post per blog per day – it gets boring. I will report only major news on PR, for the rest you still have to go to the other two blogs.

    I read both but Photo Rumours 99 percent of the time. I only read NR because it often comes up in my D600 searches.

  • Huggs

    I read all three blogs at least once a day.

      what i am more wondering is the lack of canon stuff here in compare to CR, knowing you are not related to CR, i think there should be more canon rumors on photo rumors.

    I read Nikon Rumors, but Since I got the D800 not so much. There was a time I read it more thn once a day while waiting for the D700 replacement to come out. Howeve, I will say the trolls give me a headache. Way too much B. S. over there to make it fun to read, like it used to be. There is a lot to learn from reading the message boards and the Nikon Rumors site (if you can read past the troll work).

    I check them all each day and get updates via Facebook.

    I never read Leica Rumors – way overpriced in my persona view.

    I don’t have any Canon gear – way under the quality of almost everything else in my personal view.

    So …. NIKON, NIKON, NIKON.

    Screw the rest. :-)
