Nikon Announces V1 and J1 Mirrorless Cameras
So hear they are then. Finally. Nikon has taken a step into the lucrative mirrorless camera market that has so far been dominated by Panasonic, Olympus and Sony. It’s not really been a secret they were on their way, we’ve known about the size of the sensor for some time, but to their credit Nikon plugged the holes in the leaky ship and managed to keep all actual images of the cameras away from the internet prior to launch. Something that has become rarer and rarer in the last couple of years.
