According to reputed News Mill nikkei.com Nikon will be releasing a Mid-Range FX Mirrorless Before September 30, 2019. Take a look what Nikki Said about Nikon’s upcoming Mirrorless camera
Nikon will introduce a new mid-price mirrorless camera product in fiscal 2019. The same interchangeable lens can be used in the product that corresponds to a sister model such as the high-end model “Z7” launched by the company in the autumn of 2006. It is expected that the price will be in the 100,000 yen range, which is easier for the general consumer to pick up than the leading 200,000 to 400,000 yen model. The aim is to develop the demand of users other than existing enthusiasts.

Great news that Nikon is finally coming out with a lower price FF mirrorless. Let’s hope that Nikon haven’t cut out too many features (e.g. such as remote triggering options better than that awful app) so that it has a feature set similar to APS-Cs at the same price such as the X-T30. Nikon will also need to have suitable priced lenses, such as scaled up AF-P lenses. Surprised we haven’t seen any patents for these.
It would be a good thing as well, if Nikon introduced an adaptor for their new mirrorless cameras that caters for older “screw driven” AF lenses.
