It has been a year now since Nikon hinted at an upcoming Nikon full-frame mirrorless camera and the news are somewhat official now, with the launch of a Nikon special event page and its countdown, along with a press release that said absolutely nothing about the upcoming camera (which is why we never bothered publishing it at PL). But we know one thing for sure – the camera is supposed to be released on August 23 of 2018, about a month after the first teaser video came out. Although we don’t have any information from Nikon on the specifications of the camera, some details have been leaked and we do have one major piece of information based on the teaser video – the camera will feature a brand new mount. Many Nikon shooters are anxious to see what this camera is all about and some might be wondering how the new camera system might impact their existing investments and what it might mean in terms of future developments of DSLR cameras and lenses. In this article, I want to go over the upcoming Nikon Mirrorless system and discuss the features I believe Nikon should focus on in order to make it successful.
