    Nikon The Nikon APS-C DSLR I'd really like to see ...

    The V1 has a special place in my heart, but the J5 is so much better, in almost every way, but sadly the latter even lacks the means to attach an EVF (a non-functional flash shoe would be a starting point). Both feel very well constructed, and works very well (at least those I have have never...

    Nikon Nikon A / Ricoh GR / Fuji X70 with the RX100 just to confuse things

    One wonders which way the dust gets in, via the front, or via the folding sections?!

    Nikon Nikon A / Ricoh GR / Fuji X70 with the RX100 just to confuse things

    Love my GR, but it suddenly had dust on the sensor (I do not live in a dry, dusty, country), and the price for the cleaning was about 30% of its price, when new. Then I found out that this is a pretty common problem, this dust issue, so I will be wary of buying another compact camera from...

    Nikon Nikon D600

    I bought mine when they came out, at full price, and although it had a bit of the infamous oil spot issues (like so many others - had the shutter exchanged years ago), and although I don't use it much, it has ticked off far more than 10,000 shots by now. Pretty nice camera, in short. Use it a...

    Nikon The Nikon APS-C DSLR I'd really like to see ...

    I got the D3300, which I am impressed by (did not like the D3200, though), and the new version out seems even better. Same size as the D5500, but far cheaper. Very reliable AF, even with very long lenses. But for the rest i use the FX camera, of course, or if it is macro I'm into, the J5 +...

    Nikon Nikon shuts down Nikon 1 System

    You have surely missed an experience! The latest (J5) is, image-wise, almost as good as my modern Nikon FX camera, and that is really awesome. its dynamic range isn't quite as good, naturally, but surprisingly close. According to those in the know, the 70-300CX is design-wise (lots of expensive...

    Nikon Nikon shuts down Nikon 1 System

    It has been very quiet on all Nikon MILC fronts, although the executives say they are fully supporting the N 1 system (and the Photokina Nikon booth had a lot of Nikon 1 gear on display, but zero new items). Lets hope something happens before Nikon fades away (all companies disappear one day)...

    Nikon Nikon shuts down Nikon 1 System

    These DL cameras, if they ever appear on the market in their planned form, are, as presented, an odd bunch. Some have the latest lens coatings, but not all, some are very expensive, some not, and with neither you have a way of clearing out dust from the sensor, or the rear element of the lens...

    Nikon Nikon shuts down Nikon 1 System

    The J5 would transform your photography yet again, I can assure you that, as long as you can manage without a viewfinder. In the family we have three, all obtained at a very fair price in Tokyo, and it is one of the most conventional of the N 1 cameras (buttons and menu-wise), but uses Sony's...

    Nikon Nikon shuts down Nikon 1 System

    Well, at Photokina there was a lot of Nikon 1 stuff, albeit nothing new at all. On the other hand, Nikon executives at Photokina, said that they indeed are considering Nikon 1 as an up and alive line of cameras. So (hopefully) something new will arrive in 2017! In good light the V2 is very...

    Nikon Excellent detailed review of the Nikon V1 and J1

    I wasn't in the market, either, but I bought a V1 to the wife, who instead opted for the OM-D (her loss). Anyway, I must say it has taken me with storm - after just a few weeks it has for all but low light photography replaced my Pentax K-5, that now feels big and cumbersome, and yet it is quite...

    Nikon Nikon V1 review (done for now)

    I agree with Nic that I couldn't think of a single reason to own both a MFT camera, like my wife's soon-to-be-delivered OM-D, and a Nikon 1 camera, but my what things you can do with a V1! Accodring to test sites, like Photozone.de, the kit lenses are among the sharpest there are on the market...

    Nikon Nikon V1 review (done for now)

    I love my V1 (which began as a gift to my wife, who instead opted for the OM-D), but it isn't perfect, in any way. The three Series 1 lenses have been found exceptionally sharp, the tiny flash works surprisingly well, but the arrangement of the buttons is pretty unique: For instance that the...

    Nikon Excellent detailed review of the Nikon V1 and J1

    Quite a few very serious guys have shelved their M9s (sold them, or put them on the back burner) and gotten themselves a NEX-5N, a M Mount adapter, and, preferable with a FDA-EV1S viewfinder, and just loving it! Well, I have no M9, but a NEX-5N, and put my K5 on the shelf, using a K Mount...
