Nikon 1 Updated 10mm f/2.8 and 10-100mm f/4-5.6 Lens Patents

August 25, 2015 By Eric Reagan

Nikon-1-10-100mm-and-10mm-Lens-Patents

A pair of recently published patent applications reveal updated versions of the Nikon 1 10mm f/2.8 lens and the Nikon 1 10-100mm f/4-5.6 VR lens.

The 10mm f/2.8 patent was filed back in March, while the 10-100mm f/4-5.6 VR lens patent was filed in late April. These are probably a couple of the more popular 1-Series lenses, so a replacement at some point makes sense.

As always, don’t take a patent filing as evidence of an impending announcement. It’s just something to keep on your radar.

You can check out the patents yourself by clicking links below.
