History of Nikon
In this blog, I would like to start with the camera brand that I love most, Nikon.
Nikon was found in 1917 in Tokyo, Japan, and its original name was Japan Optical Industries Corporation. In 1945, after the WWII the company transformed from a military industry which produce aiming device for the Japan military to a private company that produce camera, microscope, telescope and all kinds of optical products. In 1988, after the company lunched a successful series of cameras, “Nikon”, the company was renamed Nikon Corporation by the camera series’s name.
Right now, Nikon is one of the best camera producer of the world, and it has different series of camera for different special needs, such as “Nikkor” lens for Nikon’s SLR/DSLR, “Nikonos” under water cameras, “Coolpix” DC series, F series 35mm SLR cameras (Most of the models have been stop production), and my favourite–D series DSLR.
Next week: product review of Nikon D60
