Nikon D5 leaked online, new Leica SL firmware coming on Monday…

By PR admin | Published: December 12, 2015

I will soon have a poll to determine if the majority of PhotoRumors.com readers are also visiting NikonRumors and LeicaRumors. I need this information in order to know if I should cover more of those brands here on this blog. I do not want to repeat the same posts for readers who visit all three of my websites, but I also do not want to miss any major news for visitors who only frequent PhotoRumors. What do you think? Should I cover here on PhotoRumors the major Nikon and Leica related stories?
