Highllights:
- Will introduce an entry level DSLR (i.e. D50) for first time DSLR buyer (didn't say when).
- It won't be just cheap. It will satisfy those customers' needs.
- We are working on the successor of D100. Please wait for a little more (didn't say how long more).
- The D100 successor is expected to be better than D2X in some area. Just like D70 comparing to D100.
- Nikon should introduce more affordable DX lenses.
- We are askded for PC lenses in DX format. Would like to add it to the product line in future.
- We know there are demands for FF. At the same time, we have archived very high quality results with DX format.
- DX format will remain competitive even 10 years later from now. DSLR doesn't use films. It doesn't need to stick to 135 film size.
- Nikon will capture 40% of world wide DSLR market.
