Now it looks like the date has been confirmed as Nikon’s website has started a countdown to the official announcement. As per the previous report, it has been confirmed that the announcement will be taking place on the 23rd of August. There will be a live stream of the upcoming event so those who are interested will be able to watch the announcement as it unfolds.
Nikon seems to be putting in a lot of effort to announce the upcoming camera so presumably it will be a huge deal for the company. Nikon’s mirrorless efforts haven’t really been that well-met compared to the likes of Sony, and given that we’re starting to see more photographers hop on board the mirrorless bandwagon, it looks like Nikon has decided to double down on their efforts.
Not much is known about the camera save for the rumors, such as the use of a full-frame sensor and also the introduction of a new Z-mount. Either way we will find out in about a month’s time, so check back with us then for the details.
