This suggests that not only has Nikon finally let go of their grip on film but that they’re also abandoning the F mount DX system possibly sooner than many had expected as well. The Nikon Japan website tells a much more telling story, though, with a high number of AF-S DX lenses also being listed as discontinued, including many of the popular and higher-end ones like the AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED (also still listed as in stock and available at B&H and Amazon). Retailers such as B&H already list the Nikon D5 as discontinued, although they do still have a few refurb bodies for sale if you want to save a little money vs a new D6. The Nikon D6 has been out for a little while now, and there’s really no reason to continue on with it. But I think more logically, there are just more of them lying around in various warehouses throughout the USA that still haven’t been sold yet.Īlong with the Nikon F6, the Nikon D5 DSLR has also been discontinued, although this one isn’t really much of a surprise. So, maybe it’s just discontinued for Germany and some other parts of Europe. B&H still lists the F6 as available for $2,599, although they say they have none in stock with “More on the way”. Interestingly, the Nikon F6 isn’t listed as discontinued elsewhere in the world yet.
