Nikon announces its 100th anniversary, which happens in July, there is definitely a reason for rejoicing among the camera makers’ fans. And to mark its first century in the business, Nikon will be releasing not just commemorative trinkets but also special 100th Anniversary editions of its cameras, lenses, and even its binoculars.

On the camera side, you have the 100h Anniversary Editions of the D5 DSLR and the D500. The D5 is still Nikon’s flagship premium camera and is one of the cameras that had the distinction of going to outer space.

The Nikon D500, on the other hand, is the company’s first camera to feature its SnapBridge technology. Now a common feature on its modern digital cameras, SnapBridge allows for the easy transfer of photos and videos from camera to mobile device.

If you’re a Nikon fan, you might want to throw in a 100th Anniversary Edition NIKKOR lens as well. The special 2017 batch includes the NIKKOR 70-200E and the Triple F2.8 Zoom Lens Set.

But if you’re more of the collecting type, there also commemorative items coming. At the top of that list, and probably price, is crystal reproduction of the Nikon Model I, created by Swarovski. A pin collection of Nikon’s most popular products will also be available.

 

Details of the availability, and hopefully pricing, will be revealed sometime in June. Nikon’s anniversary celebration will take place on July 25, 2017.
