Just wondering what will happen in 10 or so years after the Nikon D950 is released? Will that be it for Nikon or will there be a D960, D970, D980 etc.? Just throwing it out there.

Respectfully, I don't understand what your real concern is here. What would you like to have happen? As UHH members responded to your previous topic regrading camera upgrades, no one is telling you that you must upgrade. Many of us tend to keep our best functioning cameras for a long time.

I'm very happy with my D810. I was just being curious about future of the FX series of Nikon.

The website "Nikon Rumors" when monitored over time will give you a fair idea as to what's coming up. Keep in mind these are, exactly as the name implies, rumors, but the rumors often include small hints and images gathered by professional members of the trade press. When you put the info together, it can paint a fairly accurate picture.

iIf you worry about Nikon running out of numbers, they already did. They just invent a new numbering system. As you can see they run out of number when they introduced the D90 so then started the 7000 series. They also run out of number when they introduced the D60 so they started the 3000 series. All for more confusion.

In 10 years? We'll have an adapter that allows us to mount a lens directly over our eyes, with a data plug going to a port at the base of our skull for direct import of images into the frontal cortex. That and an internal Borg modification that allows you to view a histogram in the right eye as you compose in the left.

Stranger things have happened.

Nah! I guess after the D850 Nikon doesn't make DSLR any more except the 1 digit series and they still have at least 4 more to go. They will make only mirrorless and thus they start back up with 1 digit for the top of the line, 2 digits and 3 digits for other class with a new letter in front.

There will never be a Nikon D950 Maybe a mD950 could be a 95 megapixel mirrorless and shutterless camera. And there will follow more cameras after that one.

Slow news day in Jersey?

I called Nikon on your behalf. They said they don't give a rat's ass about what you're going to be shooting in ten years.

Go shoot something with what you have now.

Does it matter what they are called? What will be will be. If Nikon is still around, in the future, there will be various innovations / model upgrades. Perhaps there will eventually be GigaPixel sensors the size of a thumbnail, in cameras with thousand shot buffers, which produce images in near total darkness, at ISO 6,753,600 which are as bright, and clear, and noise free, as ISO 100 images in sunlight are now. Time will tell. Back in the early days of digital consumer cameras, most cameras were 0.3MP. Fan Boys went wild over the latest items, and were doubtful when I said that I would wait until there were 8, or 10, MP models at least. The Fan Boys scoffed, and were sure that there would never be such hi-res systems. There would never be a 10MP camera, ever, they said. Now, there are hundreds of 20MP+ models. Incremental upgrades keep the factories busy, and the people employed, and the shareholders making a profit. We could have had 8MP cameras back when most cameras were only 0.3MP, but those 8MP cameras would have cost $30,000.00 each then, and so would not be selling well, and the camera makers would have missed out on all the profits that were to be made from: 0.3MP, 0.5MP, 0.8MP, 1MP, 2MP, 3MP, etc, cameras until the current 24MP, etc, models. We have the great camera tech that we have now because the camera makers survived to bring it to us at reasonable prices...thanks to Incremental Upgrades. Get used to it.

I hope I'm alive and have that problem in 10 years. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to the D850.

With the D750 and D850, it looks like they are leaning toward 100s and 50s. Check back with me in ten years. : )
