Nikon rumors says Nikon might announce an underwater Nikon at the end of August. The author says he thinks it will just be a point and shoot. He says that the copyright for Nikonos ran out in 2008.

nikon's CD AF are not class leading, and it has way too many pixels, on tiny sensor.

The pany ts3 is almost certainly better in many ways.

Yes, I read about that. If they think that is a nikonos they are nuts.
