My guy gets a paycheck from Nikon. Maybe he's a janitor. Maybe he's in charge of specification translation for the US market or maybe he's in charge of service here in LA. Doesn't really matter. ...

LOL. I'm a former yacht broker and pro sailor. I've sailed everything from Swans to Melges, owned classic C&C, J boat and Pearson among others. Do enlighten me to which boat makes a better weekend ...

Nikon will slow F mount development as Z mount gains momentum. Both Nikon and Canon have such great lens coverage at this point, I can't see much issue with slowing production. 3rd party options ...

"You're gonna need a bigger boat." ....His line to Shaw was improvised. I have a set-used early draft of the screenplay and of course it doesn't have most of the iconic lines. Don't even think ...

My cousin is not in Tokyo, but his position still warrants a NDA and his previous NDA was still in effect before going back to work them. What he hints at or outright tells me is pretty limited. ...

Nikon produces film cameras to support those who still shoot film. But stopping DSLRs won't end support for anything. Z mount users will still be able to use F mount glass and no one is getting ...

Ouch!

You could be right and you might be wrong. Rob

LOL! Rob

Let me know when Sony makes a camera as rugged as a D5 or D850 with the same capabilities. So far they don't. Sony has work to do, though I'm sure it meets your needs. They do like their new line ...

I always did. A Z6 will be a fun upgrade. But there will be a shift away from DSLRs than will end in their near total elimination from the marketplace. Just a matter of time. Rob

Yes he did. Pro's use what they want. The Pro Z mount camera will have a deeper buffer, twin card slots and a higher MP count than the D5, but still below the Z7. Companies like Nikon and Canon ...

Absolutely.  I think the D700, D3, D4, D810, D850 and some others will be around for a LONG time. My wife loves her D90. Rob

Source "roughy" comes from a source at Nikon. Rob

Continuation of the previous thread... So here's my timeline....for the death of the DSLR. I'm not guessing on this. While I may be off to varying degrees, this timeline comes from a good source. 2 ...

It's relevant because we're talking about the common resistance we see when new tech starts to climb up and dominate. With a inherent lower center of gravity and far more control over weight ...

And that's perfectly reasonable. But one day soon there will be a 600 MPC car and then 1000 miles on a charge. When Tesla releases their new sports car it will be a final statement on which ...

Yep. It's a developing technology. As a species we have a knack for progressing this way. Battery tech continues to advance at a fast rate. We've far in just 5 years. So I have no idea why anyone ...

While I have yet to buy a Tesla, some of my friends own them. My friend has over 60K on his model S and has seen minimal loss of battery life. He hasn't paid for gas in over two years. We don't ...

Just looking to enjoy the transition. I think you won't be waiting 5 years for that. Silly. I can do it with a Casio. ;-) Being a "beta tester can be a lot of fun. And I can always use more fun! ...
