Nikon Press Conferences for July 30 and August 4 – D300s Cometh

Written by Eric on June 18th, 2009 | 3 Comments


Kamera & Bild passed along that Nikon has a couple of press conferences set for July 30 and August 4.  K&B further alludes to the announcements of, not one, but two new DSLRs from Nikon.

We know that rumors of a Nikon D300s have been running rampant lately, so there’s one.  What’s the other?

Some say a Nikon D4000 is in the works to replace the D60, as a non-video DSLR.  Other rumors suggest a D4 or D3s (or some other refreshed version of the D3).  Both rumors make a little sense.

Another possible explanation for the two dates would be a release of a plethora of point and shoot cameras, which seems to happen twice a year, at the first press conference.  All the while, the second press conference is for the Nikon D300s and maybe a handful of lenses.

One thing’s for sure . . . expect plenty of leaks and more rumors between now and July 30.

Anyone else have word on what, when and where?
