According to a small bit of information I received, Nikon may not be ready to launch a new successor to the Nikon D300s, also known as Nikon D400. However, they have a Nikon D7100 in the works. The D7100 would be the first Nikon camera using the same digital sensor as the Sony Alpha 77…

Summary-Analysis of Nikon rumors
While Summer heat (in the Northern hemisphere) starts to have a heavy influence on our dreams of holidays and on our ability to think clearly, we are more and more to wonder what Nikon is preparing us: The launch of the Nikon D7000 is now far in the past in mid-2010, the entry-level range is…
Sony A77 & A65 – stolen images
SonyAlphaRumors.com got a nice photo of the upcoming Sony Alpha 77 that is expected to be the successor to the (now) old sony Alpha 700. This is still a rumor coming from a leaked image, but it looks like one of the most accurate information up to now. This is the confirmation of the tilt-and-swivel…

Nikon: Delays on D4, D800
The impact of the earthquake on 11 March in Japan on the Nikon Sendai plant will have significant consequences for the launches of the Nikon D4 and Nikon D800. They were to be launched before Summer to be manufacturer in Sendai. The manufacturing process will not be ready until the production is transferred to Malaysia.…
What is in the Nikon D400?
One of the most expected SLR photo camera of 2011 will certainly be the Nikon D400. I have to admit that the name is not official yet, and is only the product of a reasonable speculation, but the successor to the Nikon D300s could easily hold this name. The D300s is currently the Nikon flagship…
All Nikon in 2009 & 2010
NikonRumors has shaken our little world of Internet digital photography by presenting what could well be Nikon’s marching order for the coming year (and a little more). Hold on! There are a lot of details for a single post on a Czech forum: August 4, 2009 Nikon D3000 Nikon D300s with Full-HD movie 24 fps,…
Nikon next news conferences
Without being able to show the exact contents, we can tell that the next news press conferences organized by Nikon will happen on July 30, and August 4. I wouldn’t believe they are ready to predict Lottery results. So, you can figure out what is coming.
The Nikon D300s is semi-official
It’s on an official Nikon US web site that this image appeared. Supposedly to describe seemingly independent techniques, the article used (this has been changed now) what appeared to be screen copies of the LCD back screen of the Nikon D300s which is still unannounced. Many people expect that under this name (or under the…
Nikon D300s – Maybe
I am so uncertain about this rumour that I will not even copy the details here. Nikon Rumor is telling us that there will be an upgrade to the Nikon D300 under the name of Nikon D300s. Honestly, how would Nikon add HD video to an existing design? That would be the smallest increment to…

Evolution of rumours
Upon a recommendation by Gérard Pandolfo, I have checked the Google Trends for the upcoming Pentax K7D. It is interesting to notice that Japan is clearly the country where most of the attraction for the Pentax K7D appears. While I’m here, let’s notice that the author of a book about the Nikon D400, recently apologized…
New rumours: Nikon D400 & Nikon D750
DigitalRev shows the latest news in terms of rumours about the future SLR cameras from Nikon (to be named, Nikon D400 and Nikon D750). You’d expect more transparency: They gorgeously present them as if they were real products, while it’s only nice colours and pictures for the basest rumours of the moment (the name of…
Nikon D400: April 14th
Everybody says so, everybody repeats it: Nikon will announce its new SLR photo camera, the successor to the D300 in a press event organised on the 14th of April. Let’s try and stay quiet for a week, we’ll see if this is a rumour or a scoop.
Nikon SLR with a tilt LCD
One participant to the forums of Somethingawful otained a full collection of pictures taken in Croatia during the shooting of a commercial where we can see a guy handling an SLR camera. On some images, it is possible to notice that it’s a Nikon and that it has a tilt-and swivel LCD display. If the…

Nikon D400 vs. Canon 500D
Even if the Nikon D400 (successor to the Nikon D300) is supposed to be much more expensive than the Canon 500D (successor to the Canon EOS 450D), Google Trends shows that the public’s interest is significantly higher for the Nikon D400.
NR sees the Nikon D400
A reader from Nikon Rumours claims he has spotted a partial update of the German Nikon web site showing the Nikon D400.

Nikon D400 confirmed in Print

Nikon rumour: Nikon D5000 at PMA09
The nearly-arrived new entry-level SLR camera from Nikon would not be named Nikon D65, but Nikon D5000. This is what seems to become the common consensus. It would be a strong contender with: 12.3 MP (possibly the same sensor that comes with the Nikon D300 and Alpha 700, in its simplified version) No built-in AF…
Nikon D400: Confirmation in the Ads
Currently, Google AdSense is distributing ads that match the exact words “Nikon D400”. Usually, this is not very significant (many small companies try to catch some attention this way), but those are coming from the big names in photo camera distribution: Amazon, B&H, Adorama. If those big guys are now all spending money on the…
