Nikon dashes hopes of camera intro this week

Nikon dashes hopes of camera intro this weekNikon today quashed hopes of a camera press event this week. Speaking with an English company spokesman at the Foto 2008 expo, a Swedish site says the company has no plans for a November 20th announcement. Previous claims of an introduction are now thought to have been spurred on by a Danish press agency incorrectly relying on old material and then propagating the news through mainstream channels.

The announcement was rumored linked to either the long-rumored D3x, a high-resolution version of the 12-megapixel D3 pro SLR, or the revelation of an entirely new medium-format sped known as MX as well as a camera to use it. Nikon has largely abstained from the medium-format market but has yet to offer an update to the D3 since its launch in August 2007. The company in the past has offered an x version of its highest-end pro camera but has so far remained silent with the D3's generation. [viaPhotography Bay]
