Nikon has revealed its next pro DSLR, the Nikon D6.
The new camera belongs to the extension of Nikon’s successful D-series DSLRs, which are particularly popular among sports photographers for their shutter speed and reliability, and Nikon claims it as “its most advanced digital SLR yet.”
For now, that’s the only thing Nikon disclosed about the upcoming D6 right now, beyond the photo above which ensures it’ll appear identical to the D5 (and the D4) from the front. Alongside the D6’s development, Nikon also disclosed that a new ultra-fast telephoto zoom lens is under progress, the AF-S Nikkor 120-300mm f/2.8E FL ED SR VR.
Nikon followed the past practice, the full D5 announcement came amid a couple of months after the confirmation of its development, and the same destiny was shared by the D4S before it.
Nikonians wouldn’t have to wait too long to find out more, but sports photographers are probably weighing their wings for their Tokyo Olympics at the moment.
