As a Professional Photographer and NPS member, it's so interesting to visit Nikon Museum!
This 130cm long glass ingot is a symbol of the Nikon Museum. Visitors are permitted to touch it. It is an embodiment of Nikon’s optical material manufacturing technologies.
In this display, you can see about 450 items, from the Nikon Model I to digital SLR cameras and interchangeable lenses. You can also enjoy a "Hands-on Corner", where you can handle SLR film cameras from various generations. In addition, in the "Brochure Library", you can view brochures of Nikon products on a specially designed monitor.
Nikon's first single-lens reflex camera in 1959
Nikon's flagship models, including the F, F2 and F3, have all been favourites of press photographers. Nikon has also developed special models to meet the needs of photojournalism.
This is Nikon F2 with high-speed motor drive (Uses a half mirror and special motor drive to achieve a frame rate of up to 10 frames per second.) in 1978
Nikon F3P - Uses a titanium cover over the pentaprism, with the addition of an accessory shoe, and omits the self-timer. Features improved dust- and rain-resistance. (Digital cameras and the press) 1983
Speedlight SB-24(Automatic balances flash (TT-BL flash) to balance brightness between subject and background)
NikonF4 (The first Nikon's flagship model with autofocus function)
Nikonos RS AF (The world's first underwater autofocus SLR camera, capable of shooting at depths of 100 meters.)
