More Nikon stuff not many care about
#1
... nor will it be tested here anytime soon:

Announcement of another and hopefully the last DinoSaurLR, the D6 might just be ready for some olympics and for some last sports shooters who didn't grab an α9 or α9 II, if it will be available soon.

Just kidding. Nikon users are as conservative as the brand ... Will be the last DSLR owners standing.

The 120-300/2.8 might be a nice copy of Sigma's 2005 introduced lens, just for double the price and maybe 1 kg less, but the AF-S NIKKOR 120-300MM F/2.8E FL ED SR VR leaves me curious for what the SR stands for. Saurus Rex?

Anyway, these two items are just ongoing projects Nikon is working on.

And then the next made in China cheapo, the 24/1.8 S for hilarious 1000 bucks, I'll take two dozens as dirt cheap as it is. Someone said the big mount would allow for new lens designs, now I slowly get the picture, that "new" doesn't necessarily mean "affordable" or "small". Hell, we already lost a distance scale and no one really complains. The distance is also no longer in EXIF. How will one want to set up these lenses for hyperfocal distances? Not necessary anymore? Just for rangefinders sexy?
