Earlier we have posted that Nikon isn’t attending the CES 2018 event. But, Thanks to Thom Hogan and Doug Who told us that Nikon is attending the CES 2018 Event.
Why the confusion was occurred ? Since, Nikon isn’t listed any “official” CES press conference schedule, and that’s why we thought Nikon isn’t attending. But, they are coming and as Thom said “Companies don’t always list their press conferences there because they want to limit the press to their own specific contacts, not the broader CES ones. Thus, you can’t even say that Nikon won’t have a new product at CES. Indeed, it’s likely that they will (e.g. Coolpix P900 followup).”
At the moment we don’t know what actually coming at CES show, May be Nikon P1000 🙂 Well, Nikon have lot’s of announcement overdue, that includes Nikon D650, Nikon P1000, Nikon D760 and Nikon D5s. So, we have to wait and watch.
Well its not a rumor, its a prediction by Veteran photographer / Youtuber Tony Northup. He also did perfect predicitons in the past and so this time we Can’t ignore him.
According to him Canon will announce a Fullframe Mirrorless camera by having name M3 with same sensor as of Canon EOS 5D Mark IV camera and 4K (cropped as canon usually do).
At first Canon will announce 3 to 4 lenses for its FF Mirrorless camera along with a adapter for Canon DSLR lenses. The price of the upcoming camera is rumored to be somewhere around $3.4K.
