One awaited it for June... it will be introduced on July 22: it is the substitute of current Nikon D1H. " D2 " will aim the reporters clearly!
For the moment, it is an open secret:
the presentations " under the table " already started in the photo retailers and to the persons in charge for the central merchandizings but, as of the next week, Nikon will put the turbo one with more deprived presentations and of greater amplitude, but always under embargo.
But it is on next 22 July which the new numerical reflex camera professional Nikon will take really its take-off since it is on this date that famous D2 " will be revealed " about which one speaks on all the forums since months.
In fact, Nikon did not have any more the choice and was to go quickly: vis-a-vis the EOS 10D and in excellent Eos-1 DIGITAL, its sales stagnate and owe their relatively good level only with the dubious delivery periods of Gun and with the strong reserve of its users vis-a-vis a change of mounting, always painful. Because, on the ground, neither D100 nor the D1H and D1X make the weight vis-a-vis the Canon models.
Advertisement of " D2 " (provisional name of war!) is thus strategic and will allow Nikon to go back on rail, considering this apparatus will be only the first of a long series. Nikon puts the package besides and will not be satisfied to present a version alone of the substitute of the D1H: the apparatus will be surrounded by quantity of peripherals whose, obviously, the objectives awaited so much, necessary to cover the format of sensor " cuts APS ".
For the moment, the urgency consisted in reassuring the professionals. The new numerical reflex camera Nikon will thus make its first weapons at the time of the Championships of the world of athletics. Right now, we located several cases between the hands of professionals who play, to some extent, the beta-testers...
This new numerical reflex camera aims the professionals clearly and will be characterized by so short latency times which it will be difficult to measure them, of the gusts with a rate (8 i/s in full resolution), a spectacular number of images (buffer high capacity) and a transfer time of the data towards the storage mediums considerably improved.
*** the INNOVATION
If you read our édito last month, in which we reproach the numerical apparatuses for missing imagination, you will smile: the new numerical reflex camera Nikon is able to communicate with outside without wire! More need for wire to the leg, therefore, to even transfer the images towards a computer, with the help of the passage by an application software, to control the remote apparatus!
To the example of the microprocessing, which communicates via the Wi-Fi networks, Nikon brings its personal key in photograph while launching the principle of the remote piloting of the cameras, whose certain elements will be able to behave like distant peripherals, communicating and exchanging their data without wire.
(Kodak and Ricoh had already carried out tests in this direction, as regards automatic sending of images, but with less pushed and more arranged solutions).
*** OBJECTIVE:
Nikon will present, around this apparatus, a whole environment of professional accessories and, obviously, objectives.
In this connection, let us reassure the users who could have believed the rumours of change of mounting: NIKON DOES NOT CHANGE MOUNTING and remains faithful to its sensor " cuts APS ". Therefore, not of full format 24x36 as regards the sensor but, despite everything, an astute solution for the amateurs of broad framing. One will return there.
The sensors used on the new numerical reflex cameras Nikon preserve the same size that the old ones and Nikon remains faithful to its promise: the coefficient of realignment of x1,5 is maintained.
After the 12-24mm, interesting solution of waiting but which presents neither the opening hoped by the pros, nor the beach of focal distances wished by the amateurs, Nikon must thus supplement its range of objcetifs special for numerical photograph.
We await in particular a 9mm f/2,8, essential to the reporters accustomed to work with the 19mm. But we await also new Af-s zooms. To follow!
*** THE RESOLUTION:
It is not époustouflante and Nikon will not play hunting for the pixels, being satisfied with a basic resolution of 4 Mpix, " dopable ". On the other hand, new Nikon-D will have of an excellent sensitivity and a signal processing to make fade of desire the quibblers of " the numerical " noise.
You remember what had arrived at D1: Nikon " had astutely cut out " its pixels in the direction height and had thus doubled the practical resolution. Does Eh well one start again the same operation, but in the other direction? and one thus doubles still the resolution (except for a hair).
In fact, all the efforts were related to speed and Nikon from now on will communicate on the fact that the quality of the images is not only business of pixels. One will speak again of sensitivity, of background noise and one will see that these elements, managed well, are better than a large package of pixels in bulk!
Some experimental cases turn already, between the hands of photographers more or less held with the secrecy. Several hundreds of Nikon D will be released from here the end of August for the Championships of athletics, but the Nikon innovations will not arrive on the market before the autumn.
*** THE PRICE
Since the first publication of this information, you were several hundreds to ask us for the price. One cannot give it for the moment bus Nikon did not communicate on this apparatus and it would be thus premature to draw from the plans on comet.
You do not wait however miracles: its tariff will be resolutely professional... but nevertheless lower than that of Eos-1 DIGITAL which is, in fact, its only true competitor although the personality of the two apparatuses is very, very different:
- new Nikon is typically an apparatus of report, much more at ease on the ground of the report that on that of the studio;
- Gun will be able to continue to propose the resolution of its case pro and the advantages of the full format 24x36.
*** AND QUID OF D200?
The question is on all the lips: and if there were, in addition to the case pro, D200 for " the large amateur "? It is obvious that it arrives!
But its effective marketing will not start before a few months and the career of D100 will have thus to be prolonged until spring 2004, date on which it will leave the scene after a career whose longevity constitutes almost a record!
By then, one can envisage new falls of price: D100 is negotiated dèjà very well and, as the problems of delivery of its Canon rival reabsorb, the tariff of D100 melts!
Considering the launchings planned for the re-entry, in particular with the competition of the substitute of Minolta Dimâge 7hi and the exit of numerical Pentax, Nikon will have to use all the weapons in its possession to remain competitive. That which the rumour calls " D200 " will be able then to be born and to take the relai.
The smartest readers will have noticed a small " inconsistency " in our information. For example, we speak about " D2 ", but not about D2H nor of D2X... However, there still, the rumour is right, but is mistaken simply in initials!
Not question for Nikon step by step of replacing the D1H by a D2H and the D1X by a D2X! The confusion which exists between the models is already significant and Nikon will want to differentiate its future apparatuses.
The model about which we currently speak as about " D2 " will open the ball but one has to expect to see the future numerical Nikon range restructuring itself around more logical names:
- D1, D3 and D5 for the professional range;
- D100, D300... and why not D500 for the series amateur!
Of course, it is only futurology and all that us enmene until in 2005... but it is allowed to dream, not?
With very soon for more precise details!
(Foot-note; do not dream: our photograph represents D1!)
