Nikon Poster Shows Sixty Years of Camera Evolution in One Image

Nikon Poster Featured

While planning to originally write up an article about an infographic sent to Nikon Rumors that showed every camera created by Nikon from 1948 to 2005, we came across an even more thorough collection of Nikon cameras in the form of a poster, created by none other than Nikon itself.

Available as a physical poster as well as a large JPEG, this image from Nikon documents every camera the company has made: from the original Nikon 1, which was released in 1948, to the Nikon D700 released in 2008. Rangefinders, underwater cameras, SLRs and point-and-shoots are all documented, showing just how interesting some designs came to be.

Take a look at the complete poster by clicking here; we’d love to hear which of these cameras you’ve owned over the years. And lest you think we’ve forgotten about you Canon folk, click here to see Canon’s “One Step Closer to the Dream” poster. Though not as comprehensive, it shows every SLR and rangefinder the company has made from its inception in the 1930s all the way up to 2010 and the T2i (550D).
