Canon will be announcing the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III today, along with the WFT-E9 file transmitter, which is great for the Canon DSLR shooters.
Nikon, not to be outdone will be announcing a new DSLR, F-mount lens and Z-mount lens ahead of CES.
Nikon will be announcing the following gear:
It’s nice to see a major F mount announcement from Nikon, I hope we see similar development for EF in the future.
Seems like Nikon has understood that the initial price tag of the 70-200mm f2.8 G ED VR II was too high...
Depends on IQ, but it looks like it's marketed as a supertele like the newer 200-400.
How is a 120-300 that costs $10,000 awesome??? That is exactly the kind of lens nobody will buy. I’ll give it this though, it makes the Canon 300 f/2.8 look like a deal.
Looks like they conceded to Canon’s RF 70-200 by pricing it $300 lower. Either the Nikon is not as good, or it’s big and heavy like all the other 70-200’s. I suspect it’s a little bit of both.
Fewer F mount buyers left, so a higher price is required to make a profit maybe? Or they don't want you to buy it and just have it listet to demonstrate that F mount isn't truly dead in paper
Well, the lower weight and small size in the bag is certainly worth the difference to me. However, now it seems , launch price on the Nikon is 2600 which definitely makes the RF the more appealing option if you ask me
Nice shot! And exactly my point. For $3,000 USD you can get the Sigma lens new. I just don’t see how Nikon can justify the $10,000 price point. They’re putting themselves out of business with this pricing.... not to say Canon isn’t doing a little bit of the same.
thank you.
This is this wishful thinking right?
