It's too bad that this Nikon I has a mismatch back. Does anybody has the 609683 and looking for its original back?!!

How many Nikon 1's are now accounted for in the hands of collectors/museums etc - is there a list of surviving numbers from 60921 to first of the
M609's

Hi Melway62;
Chris Sap (Belgium) is conducting research on the Nikon 1. He gave a great presentation at Con-11 in Vancouver last month. By the time he hosts Con-12 in Brusells in 2010...he hopes to have a far greater wealth of information on the Nikon 1, and is encouraging members to submit any photos and information of their own Nikon 1's. Cheers, Mike |

Thanks for that Mike - the Aussie Nikon 1 sold for $11,332.00 AUD and was bought by another camera seller in Sydney.
Would love to try and make it Brusells in 2010 but it's a long long way from Australia. Peter |

Hi Peter;
Yes, I was following that auction and was prepared to go up to $10,000 AUD. I had to draw the line. All said and done, even with the mismatched back....that was still a great deal. That rare 5cm/f3.5 Nikkor-Q was what excited me...more than the camera. Brussels is also a long way for me from Victoria, Canada (west coast), however I've opened up a special "Con-12" bank account and will put in $100.00 per month in preparation. Like the convention in Vienna, Austria, the Brussels, Belgium convention will probably be as good. Chris and Hans will make it work, you can be assurred of that! Cheers, Mike |
