NASA koopt Nikon-apparatuur voor ruimtemissies
De Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA heeft wat fotospullen nodig, en kiest voor Nikon. Het gaat om een leuke stapel apparatuur waaronder 76 D2XS DSLR-camera's, 27 groothoekzooms, 10 fisheye objectieven en 31 flitsers. Het gaat om een verplichte openbare aanbesteding, maar omdat NASA de apparatuur telkens uit dezelfde batch wil hebben, en ook nog eens op een speciale manier gesmeerd, wordt de bestelling waarschijnlijk rechtstreeks bij Nikon geplaatst.
NASA/JSC has a requirement for multiple digital cameras and camera peripherals. The digital cameras and all camera peripherals must be manufactured from the same lot. NASA has a requirement for 48 Nikon D2XS SLR Digital Cameras. The cameras must be lubricated with Braycote lubricating grease which is approved for spaceflight during the manufacturing process. NASA has a requirement for 28 Nikon D2XS Digital SLR Camera Sets (the Strap Eyelets must be removed without compromising the integrity of the camera encasement, 225 Nikon EN-EL4A Rechargable Batteries, 27 Nikon 12-24MM F4G ED-IF AF-S DX ZOOM-NIKKOR,12 Nikon 10.5MM F2.8G ED-IF AF DX FISH-EYE NIKKOR, 20 Nikon EH-6 AC ADAPTER, 33 Nikon SB800 W/ BRAYCOTE LUBRICANT (EVA)and 31 Nikon SB-800 AF TTL SPEEDLIGHT.
