Competition news: New Nikon High End Mirrorless to be on market by Spring 2019

Share

The Japanese TV NHK interview Nikon. And the one news that might be interesting for SAr readers is this: Nikon confirmed their new mirrorless system camera will be on market by Spring 2019. So exactly one year from now.

There are no reliable specs yet but this is most likely a new Full Frame mirrorless system with new mount. And it will directly compete with Sony’s A7-A9 system

Nikoneye.com believes the first camera will be an entry-level FF which is going to compete with the new Sony A7III.

Any thoughts on that?

Lyubo:I just wanted to share an extreme sport video shot on the A7SII in the Austrian Alps during the winter, very often in below freezing level temperatures, and the A7SII handled it without any issues, but looking forward to the A7SIII with improved battery and even more and better slow motion capabilities. https://youtu.be/XlmIzHl15O8

Ben:Except for the drone shots, I shot this entire video on Sony cameras. I used everything from the Sony F55 to my Sony A7RIII. Surprisingly, more than 50% of the shots in the finished video are from the A7RIII. Its improved AF saved my butt and allowed me to pull off gimbal shots that would’ve been unthinkable otherwise. https://youtu.be/8CHXk8gZLZk
