Nikon introduceert D50 (en meer DSLR's in nabije toekomst)
Nikon is planning to release a new range of digital SLR cameras, including a model called the D50, the company said Thursday.
Word of the D50's impending launch first emerged when it was discovered that a copy of the user's manual for the camera had been uploaded onto one of the company's Web sites. The manual was soon taken down.
"The user manual was uploaded in error and we can't tell you when the official announcement about the D50 will be made," said Susumu Enomoto, a spokesman for Nikon. However, he noted that the existence of a user manual for the D50 suggests the camera will go on sale in the not-too-distant future.
Nikon would not reveal any of the D50's specifications and features. But the D50 is one of several new digital SLR models that the company is planning to release following the success of the popular D70 model that went on sale in March 2004, Enomoto said.
"We are now developing a full range of new models from the top-end to popularly-priced models, but we can't say anything more now," he said. Nikon claims to have sold about 1 million D70s globally between March 2004 and this February, and this figure accounts for about 40 percent of the worldwide digital SLR market during that period, the company said.
