Rotate Z 90 degrees and you will see N ;-)

@Roland Karlsson. Bravo. It should be called EVF and not Mirrorless. Mirrorless is a silly name but looks like we are stuck with it. May be one day we will be enlightened.

@LFPCPH. I wouldn't want put Sony lenses on a Nikon body, there is no reason to as Nikon is an optical company and their reputation is built on their lenses which are second to none. Perhaps if you...

There are 100 million Nikon F lenses out there plus lot more from other makers. Nikon have been loyal to their customers by not changing the F mount since 1959- which is something. They could have...

@ewelch

Sorry, my mistake. Pentax was the first autofocus SLR released in 1981. Nikon F3AF was second, released in 1983. Minolta 7000 was the third, released in 1985.

But Nikon D90 was the first...

Looks like some people get annoyed easily. Don't look at things you don't like. Simple.

@rz350. So called "themes" are common to all manufacturers. In mass productions, this things do happen to some small batches.

This article may be of an interest to the Nikon sensor questions.

@Geyzer J. Salgado, Thank you. And to add to the list: Nikon were first to introduce auto-focussing in an SLR. D1 was the first practical and affordable digital SLR. D90 was the first SLR to...

@riknash. Nikon have been making point and shoot (mirrorless) cameras for a long time now. The only difference with this one is that it has a larger sensor and a removable lens mount.
If Nikon can...

@ignphotography; Ha, Ha, I suppose they can be and to some they are. I always thought they were tools, silly me.

I think Nikon 1 was not aiming for pro or advanced photographers but to replace the high-end point-and-shoot camera market which was not doing so well (due to mobile phone camera usage). In that...

For sure, you are not a photographer.

Shall we call it Mirrorless? No, I prefer to call it an EVF.

@ET2012. you are a genius. Currently Nikon has top performing cameras in D5, D850 and D500 with fantastic ergonomics. This is more than a good photographer requires. Cameras are not toys you know.

Canon may have come late to new EVF cameras but they are No. 1 in Japan.

"Mirrorless cameras are NOT just cameras without a mirror - they are cameras where the reflex viewing HAS BEEN REPLACED with a video feed from the sensor."
So why call them "Mirrorless cameras",...

Yxa. All cameras were mirrorless until they put mirrors in it and were called reflex cameras. We all danced with joy. Now they are removing mirrors and we are jumping with joy.

ZZZ. Digital Nikon party started 20 years ago and it is in full swing.
