Update #2: also don’t hold your breath for the Nikon press event in Japan next Tuesday – it will probably be similar to this one.
Update #1: I think Zoltar misunderstood this press release. In this announcement Nikon is talking about two DSLRs – the D3000 and D3s, but those are not new. I also got the time right (almost – I was expecting it @ 12 instead of 11 am, I still think the actual press event @ PMA will be at noon today).
I knew that there will be a press release about two DSLR cameras today from Nikon, but I did not expect them to have a press release about products that were already released! This is the story.
This just got published on Nikon USA press center – I guess there will be no new products. Sorry, I screwed up this time!
