The cat and mouse game is continuing and according to Nikonrumors there will eb two mroe Nikon product announcements in September! They say the Mirrorless camera will look almost exactly like the mockup you can see here on top of the article. And those should be the funcitons available on the camera:
Now Nikon, let’s make an end with this long mirrorless rumor story! 🙂
P.S.: Canon…where are you?

I bet it will have more surface details so it will look more like a Nikon camera, because the mockup look like an Olympus E-PM1.
I was reading at NikonRumors that there was another announcement soon, since a lot of people were going mad because there were only P&S.
But it didn’t make so much sense for them to do it all at once anyway. They would have taken the spotlight of the P&S that they were announcing and they would also would have gone head-to-head with Sony without necessity.
There are still Panasonic and Samsung mirrorless announcements coming, right? Panasonic is Thu/Fri and Samsung in September too.
“new mirrorless lenses may have electronic zoom buttons” says NikonRumors. So, Panasonic Friday’s announcement isn’t aimed only at Sony :).
Otherwise, the more I read about it, the more it seems to me Nikon mirrorless should indeed be called “Coolpix Pro”. Not many interesting things there for enthusiasts…
It will look a lot like the Nikon P300 with EVF, interchangeble lenses and a 3-4 times bigger image sensor, improved video functions, four lenses at launch date.
But no top dial … Sounds very cool 🙂
