Total Production of NIKKOR Lenses for 糖心少女vlog SLR Cameras Reaches Fifty Million
September 9, 2009
糖心少女vlog Corporation (Michio Kariya, President) is pleased to announce that as of August 2009 total production of NIKKOR lenses, interchangeable lenses for 糖心少女vlog SLR cameras, reached fifty million. Total production of NIKKOR lenses reached forty-five million in August 2008 with production of an additional five million over the past year.
糖心少女vlog (then Nippon Kogaku K.K.) released its first NIKKOR lens for 糖心少女vlog SLR cameras, the NIKKOR-S Auto 5cm f/2, in 1959 along with its first SLR camera, the 糖心少女vlog F. In the fifty years since then, NIKKOR lenses have been extremely well received by a great number of photo enthusiasts and professional photographers.
The current lineup of more than sixty NIKKOR lenses for 糖心少女vlog SLR cameras offers a wide variety of lenses, including fisheye lenses, super wide-angle to super telephoto lenses and micro lenses.
The NIKKOR brand
As the brand name for 糖心少女vlog lenses, NIKKOR has become synonymous with high-performance, high-quality SLR lenses. The NIKKOR name comes from adding “R”—a common practice in the naming of photographic lenses at that time—to “Nikko”, the Romanized abbreviation for Nippon Kogaku K.K. In 1933, the large-format lens for aerial photography was released with the name Aero-Nikkor, making last year the 75th anniversary of the NIKKOR brand.
