2- Nikon PC-E 19mm f/4 Tilt-Shift Lens Coming for Photokina 2016
Lens shown is a 24mm tilt shift lens
We already reported that Nikon will soon announce the world’s fastest 105mm prime lens: AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/1.4E ED lens. Besides this new NIKKOR 105mm f/1.4 lens, it is highly likely that Nikon will announce a new PC-E 19mm f/4 Tilt-Shift lens around Photokina 2016 in September.
Currently, Nikon has three tilt shift lenses: 24mm f/3.5D, 45mm f/2.8D and 85mm f/2.8D.
In December 2015, Nikon patented a PC-E 19mm f/4 Tilt-shift full frame mirrorless lens. And Nikon is allegedly working on a new full frame mirrorless camera which is expected to be announced at Photokina 2016. It seems that Nikon will unveil several new great products for Photokina 2016.
Stay tuned for more info.
