The lens on the pictures is the 14-24mm 2.8, one of Nikons newest lens which is great on D3 since it's an FX format lens.

The correct pronunciation of Nikon is "Nee-Kon." When Americans say "Nigh-Kon," that is incorrect. But just like when they pronounce Los Angeles as "Los Anjelees" instead of the correct Spanish "Los Ang-he-les," common usage rendered Nigh-Kon as acceptable. Acceptable, but not necessarily correct.

You're right, a2b1 is wrong.
Go to Nikon Japan site and you'll see "Kabushikigaisha Nikon" (株式会社ニコン)。
ニコン = Nikon
Word by word in katakana:
二 = Ni, pronounce like "Knee" but not that long. Think of "nick" but no "ck" at the back.
コ = Ko.
ン = N.
Kon. Hard to find a perfect example, kind of in between "Con" and "Gone", the former let out too much air, and the later kind of too many "G" sound.
So, it's more like "Knekon". It's Japanese, so pronounce it Japanese way. Sounds like neko... (¯3¯)

Well, the Nikon rep in the video is pronouncing it "Nai-kon" so presumably Nikon's USA branch pronounces it this way. And using your examples as a guide, wouldn't Nikon be pronounced "Nee-kon" if the letter I was always pronounced with a long E sound, like in "sushi", rather than "Nick-on", like you state?

what's the lens on the D3, it looks like a super wide zoom. |
