The image on top shows the Nikon patented optical desing of the 52mm f/0.9 lens (Source: Hi-Lows-Note). It’s very likely the 58mm f/0,95 will have nearly the same design. This is a highly complex design and for sure it’s going to be a very BIG and expensive lens. But still…very exciting and unique! The currently fastest autofocus lens is the Canon 50mm f/1.2.

Nikon will have another press conference on September 25. it might be that they will NOT announce a new product but rather share more details about their new Nikon Z system.
There is a new rumor listing the possible new Nikon gear:
On August 23 Nikon will announce this:
Nikon Z6: high speed, low light model (24MP)
Nikon Z7: high-resolution model (45MP)
Z-Nikkor 24-70mm f/4
Z-Nikkor 50mm f/1.8
Z-Nikkor 35mm f/1.8
A couple of months later Nikon will releases this:
Z-Noct-Nikkor 58mm f/0.95
Particularly the Nikkor 58mm f/0,95 lens will have a great wow factor necessary for Nikon to create big attention on the system The big question is…what will be the price of it?

Bloomberg reports how Nikon and Canon dominancy is threatened by Sony’s new mirrorless camera. For Blooberg analysts the only way for Canon and Nikon to stop Sony is to launch their own mirorrless Full Frame cameras:
Nikon is working on its first full-frame mirrorless camera, with more details of the device due to be announced on Aug. 23.
Canon hasn’t disclosed any concrete plans; they’re “within the scope of development,” a company spokesman said. “The hurdle for Sony is still high,” said Tomonori Igari, an editor at Asahi Camera. “It depends on how much they commit to creating a support structure, and also on Nikon and Canon’s mirrorless strategy.”
Buildyourcamera made a new very advanced paper mockup model of the new Nikon FF mirrorless. Chapeau for the great effort he is putting to create these models!
Hugh Brownstone writes:
Nikon has a once -in-a-generation opportunity to redefine state of the art — actually reset the entire industry — but they have to get past Sony’s a7 III first. This is a unique set of opportunities and challenges, and it is not yet clear if Nikon — or Canon coming in behind them — is up to it.
Here is a rendered and probably not 100% accurate comparison between the new Nikon FF mirrorless and the Fuji GFX. It has to be seen if the new Nikon mount gives us enough room to fit a small medium format sensor inside….what do you think?
