Thanks for pointing out this article. It really is a must read for the serious Nikon shooter. Very troubling for those of us looking for the latest and greatest from Nikon.Take a look at Thom Hogan s post of May 25th. Here is a guy that has followed Nikon essentially for a living. He divides the business into a consumer and serious units. Most of the consumer side is produced in asia ....most of the serious product is produce in Japan.
Both sides of he business have problems. The consumer side just doesn t have competitive products and but has decent availability of product. The serious side has some best in class products yet can t deliver and is experiencing quality control issues.
