这才是尼康的一贯的作法,承前启后,既照顾老客户的手中已经有的系统,又不断开发新的系统,新老兼顾,让你想放弃尼康都难.尼康下一步开发的重点是相当于135系统的28MM以下的广角头,(在D1X,D100等APS大小CCD上),换言之从9MM-18MM的范围,135系统也更好玩喽.同时有了丰富的头的支持,D100更好买了,毕竟19万日元的价格是很有吸引力度的.

OKJ兄:
E-MAIL收到没有.等待着与您的会面.

终于等到了这个消息了，数码用户又多了一个选责了

SIGMA在制造适合数码相机用的超广角镜头方面很有经验，在已有的15-30基础上稍微改进就成了14-28
所以，我们是否可以猜测这些个即将诞生的“Nikkor”镜头的血统...

俺觉着锐的猜测很有可能……

尼康公司的数码相机的CCD的尺寸为原镜头的焦距的1.5倍,这在使用长焦的时会是件好事，200mmf/2.8一下变成了300mmf2.8，400mmf/5.6变成了600mmf5.6，这出去拍野生动物有多好。（家贼也算）

俺猜它会是光圈小于F2.8的定焦和变焦, 因为NIKON希望靠它们来进一步普及D100,S2, 所以一定
是普通人群消费的起的... 比如13mm/F4, 14-28/3.5-4.5什么的.

由于逐字翻译没有那么多的时间,我把此文的大概意思给大家说一下.
ニコンは、レンズ交換式デジタル一眼レフカメラに対応した広角域のＡＦ(自動焦点)レンズ4本程度を来春をめどに発売する。現在販売しているレンズ交換式デジタル一眼レフカメラは、撮像素子がＡＰＳ(新写真システム)サイズのため、レンズの焦点距離が1.5倍になる難点がある。このため、焦点距離が1.5倍換算でも28ミリ以下になる広角レンズをそろえ、同カメラの販売拡大を狙う。
把最关键的话翻译出来:
NIKON公司为了对应可更换镜头的单反数码照相机,计划于明年春天推出4只广角焦段的AF镜头.现在销售的可换镜头的DC,由于CCD尺寸为APS大小,焦点距离要达到1.5北有点难度,因此,为了实现用焦点距离1.5倍换算,备齐有28MM以下的镜头,扩大现行机的销售.所以....

这是NIKON公司为了配合自己现在销售的CCD为APS尺寸大小的数码照相机而开发出的,大家都知道NIKON的D1X,D100的CCD并不是像胶卷一样的全尺寸,所以传统的头用起来虽说也没有问题,但仔细考虑还是有些影响的.再为了普及到业余爱好中去,同时也是NIKON为了强化自己现行机的销售,加上暂时没有打算走CANON,KODAK的全画幅之路,所以推出了新镜头.如果是全画幅用固有的镜头当然没有问题,但由于全画幅机会导致成本提高,机器的价格就要飙升到70万日元左右,而现行机在20万左右就可以搞定.于是NIKON就采取了,为现行半画幅开发适用镜头的策略.
此文的大概意思就如此.
对D100,D1X的,S2的用户来说是个福音.

14-28/2.8 ? 14-35/2.8 多好

一个懂日文的DX的翻译, 好象NIKON主要是出于两方面的策略:1, 全幅机价格对普通用户过高, (700000
vs 200000) NIKON会把D-SLR降到200000. 2. 满足广角的需要从而用D100进一步扩大市场占有量.
COOL!, 这样用FC的就有超超广角玩了

Nikon is developing 4 wide-angle AF lenses for their D-SLR, with a target sales date in spring next year. The existing Nikon D-SLRs use APS-sized sensor, causing a 1.5X conversion factor in focal length. As a result, it is difficult to achieve a lens wider than 28mm in their existing line-up, causing difficulties in expanding their sales volume.

The special point of a D-SLR over conventional digital cameras is that you can exchange the lens of the camera to suit different condition. There is no problem if the image sensor is of the same size as the 35mm film. However, the existing popular type of APS-size sensor is only about 2/3 of the size of film, causing a 1.5x multiplication of lens focal length. 28mm lens become 42mm, reducing the wide angle effect.

Hence, a camera using full size image sensor has its focal length advantage and also better image quality due to larger pixel size. On the other hand, we expect the price of APS-sized D-SLR to drop to 200,000yen which has an advantage over the full size one which its price of 700,000yen is very high.

As the current D-SLR lineup D1X and D100 are based on APS-size sensor, we need to complete the wide-angle lens problem to ease our customers’ dissatisfaction. Moreover, we wish to broaden our customer base via the popular D100.

Currently, there are 4 companies producing D-SLR with APS-sized sensor. They are Nikon, Canon, Fujifilm and Kodak. Canon and Kodak also have full frame D-SLR.

Although there is high demand in Nikon D-SLR from the professional users, at present the trend is not consolidated. The investment on developing high-end D-SLR is very heavy and the product has to be sold at high price. On the other hand, Nikon consider it is better to meet the demand of users of D-SLR APS-sized sensor such that developing the sales at this front could enhance the profitability.
