Nikon Working on High-end Mirrorless and Medium Format Cameras

Nikon Mirrorless

During an interview to Yahoo Japan Nikon executives said that they will bring multiple mirrorless camera at an early stage. The things to be noted that after extraordinary loss news, this is the first good news we are getting itself from Nikon, more details below…

1. “Bringing in multiple mirroless camera at an early stage”

The line was quoted during the interview, after suffering from heavy loss Nikon is finally realizing it’s mistakes. Nikon is still not making any serious mirrorless solutions for professionals, seasonal  or entry level Photographers. However we are the only website who told you Nikon is planning to expand it’s Nikon 1 series Mirrorless camera and soon we will see FF and APS-C Mirrorless from Nikon.

2. Medium and High-End DSLRs

Nikon executives also told during the interview that future Nikon will concentrate on their resources on medium and high-end in DSLR cameras and lenses and mirrorless camera.

Nikon Announce a camera, High-End DPAF Sensor based mirrorless camera in near future. As you can look at the patent we have published here and it clrealy indicates that Nikon is also working on same Dual-pixels CMOS AF tech as of Canon.

What will happen to the current schedule announcement of cameras?

The other things to be noted is Nikon camera business has been re-constructing from inside to out, that clearly indicates that the future of announcement and development is going to be rescheduled. That may create some level of disappointment among Nikon users due to the delay in the regular update cycle of DSLRs.

As we all know that Nikon  D750,  Nikon D610 and Nikon D810 camera overdue for an update. So, be it will be interesting to see how you can handle the entire situation.

PS: The article has been update and some basic corrections are made [27 Feb 2017].

Nikon Patent - BSI CMOS Sensor with Dual Pixel AF

Fig-1-Nikon-patnet

Before we begin I must admit it it’s very hard to understand a patent literature,  but after analyzing the entire document we concluded that Nikon working on a BSI CMOS AF Sensor. The sensor won’t have dead Phase AF pixels as the other Hybrid sensor have, instead of that it working principle looks same as Canon’s Dual-pixel CMOS AF sensor.

Nikon Dual Pixel AF Sensor ?

Till now only Canon was only company who was using dual pixel CMOS AF Technology. But when we have seen the new Nikon latest patent where two sub pixels involved in acquiring AF, that clearly indicates Canon isn’t alone and Nikon will soon bring a new class of Hybrid Sensors for it’s DSLRs and Mirrorless cameras in near future.

Patent Details:

BACKSIDE ILLUMINATION IMAGE
SENSOR AND IMAGE-CAPTURING DEVICE
Applicant: NIKON CORPORATION, Tokyo (JP)
Appl. No.: 15/260,994
Filed Date: Sep. 9, 2016
Pub. Date: Dec. 29, 2016

Nikon-new-sensor-tech

But now after looking at the patent we have got its look like Nikon is also interested in working on the same dual pixel CMOS sensor Technology.

Details from the patent document

A backside illumination image sensor that includes a semiconductor substrate with a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements and a read circuit formed on a front surface side of the semiconductor substrate, and captures an image by outputting, via the read circuit, electrical signals generated as incident light having reached a back surface side of the semiconductor substrate is received at the photoelectric conversion elements includes: a light shielding film formed on a side where incident light enters the photoelectric conversion elements, with an opening formed therein in correspondence to each photoelectric conversion element; and an on-chip lens formed at a position set apart from the light shielding film by a predetermined distance in correspondence to each photoelectric conversion element. The light shielding film and an exit pupil plane of the image forming optical system achieve a conjugate relation to each other with regard to the on-chip lens.

Details from the patent document clearly indicates that Nikon is working on a BSI CMOS sensor that will have two sub pixels that will do AF by calculating the amount of lens drive Between the two autofocus point.

The image above of the patent you will get a clear indication that Nikon will do the same as Canon has done in many of its full frame and aps-c DPAF sensor camera. we are the first website to show you the details of the patent till now it is also possible that even Canon doesn’t know about this technology that Nikon working on.

If you can get the newest version of 100-400mm lens then it will be one of the best Canon lens ever purchased by you. Please don’t get the older version of 100-400mm lens since lens was announced in September 1998 and you can imagine the lens is using 19 year old optical formula and AF system. The Canon 77D is using advance generation of Dual-pixel CMOS AF system and 45 Point AF module of Canon 80D.  So don’t get a 10 year old lens hence it may result slow AF operation and weak resolving power.

Fuji X80 Rumors

Fuji X80 coming rumor

According to latest rumors Fuji is planning to replace the year old X70 pro compact camera with Fuji X80. The Specification of the camera isn’t know yet but the camera is expected to be announced sometime in mid of 2017.

We expect Fuji will add the same X-Trans III sensor inside upcoming Fuji X80 camera (100F also have the same sensor). Will the announcement of X80 will bring down the sales of X100F ?. I don’t think so, it’s just like trim down version of the X100F camera. The X80 will sure attract new consumer base to Fujifilm, since under $1K range Fuji if giving out APS-C Size X-Trans sensor based compact camera whereas other companies remains limited to 1″ sensor only.
