Re: What do you like/dislike about Nikon?

Definitely a dislike. While they are making money from camera sales their net income continues to decline year after year. Plus their projections for 2015 are less than 2014. I have to assume it will turn around but it\'s also possible a conglomerate like Samsung buys out whatever valuable IP they have.

All conjecture of course, all we can do is wait and see.


Right... The facts that:
- they are profitable and have been for years,
- they have tens of millions of people owning their lenses, most of them happy with their camera performance,
- they manufacture by a pretty wide margin the best bodies in the world and have some of the best lenses with more in the pipe to close the minuscule gap existing with they only real competitor...
- they have releases products with all the technologies they would need to win in the mirrorless segment as well,
- they have contracts with multiple sensor manufacturers, all able to produce sensors superior to those of their only true competitor.

Do you factor in those facts when you write that Nikon is \"unfortunately\" on the verge of bankrupcy?

Cheers,
Bernard
