There are bound to be many happy photographers waking up today to the long-awaited announcement of the D800 and D800E this morning. Yesterday we eagerly attended Nikon’s pre-launch preview event and were lucky enough to get our hands on this very exciting new camera.

On Wednesday 1st February Nikon announced not one, not two, but ten new digital compact cameras to join the well established Coolpix clan! Joining Nikon’s popular Coolpix range are two new P series cameras, four new L series compacts and four new stylish S series cameras.

It’s funny how sometimes a widget turns up just after you felt the need for it. Over Christmas I was staking out our bird table and bemoaning the need to shoot from a ‘hide’ and thinking to myself – wouldn’t it be easier to place the camera out there and shoot from the comfort of my sofa? And Voila! I’ve been lucky enough to have Hahnel’s new Inspire remote knock at my door

If you already use a D3s (or D3) you’ll feel right at home with the D4. It’s like an old friend, but one that’s been to the gym. There are subtle differences in the layout and overall form factor, and in fact it was explained to me that there are only three things shared between the older D3s and the new D4; the physical sensor size, the F mount and the 100% viewfinder coverage. Everything else has been redesigned.

2012 is shaping up to be an exciting year in the world of professional photography, with the announcement of the much anticipated Nikon D4 this morning. We were lucky enough to get a pre-launch preview of Nikon’s brand new flagship Digital SLR Camera.

We are delighted to announce that we’ve teamed up with Nikon UK to sponsor local athlete and Olympics archery hopeful Nicky Hunt. Together, wex photographic and Nikon UK have supplied Nicky with an optical scope worthy of a World Champion!

On the 21st September 2011, Nikon launched their first range of mirror-less Interchangeable Lens Cameras (ILC), the Nikon 1 series, which include the Nikon J1 and the Nikon V1.

After the introduction of the first mirrorless Interchangeable lens camera (ILC) in 2008, its popularity has increased immensely in the photographic market. On Wednesday 21stSeptember 2011, Nikon launched its own range of mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras – The Nikon 1 V1 and Nikon 1 J1!

This week Nikon have announced their latest range of compact cameras. While some are new and improved updates on popular previous models (such as the P7100), some are brand new – like Nikon’s first ever rugged camera: the AW100 which will be available in a fantastic camouflage finish, perfect for the great outdoors!

Today Nikon announced the latest addition to their lens line-up, the DX-format Nikkor 40mm f/2.8 G. This micro lens boasts a true 1:1 reproduction ratio, minimum focusing distance of 0.163m (from focal plain) as well as the large maximum aperture of f2.8, making it a promising Macro lens.
