[QUOTE="AC016, post: 532247, member: 9619"] Either way you slice it, they will lose a percentage of lens sales, all mirrorless brands do. I just bought a Canon 50mm F1.8 FDn and an adapter. That's money right out of Fuji's pocket. Even if Nikon did not make a mount, there are numerous companies out there that can make one. Nikon is between a rock and a hard place when it comes to mirrorless. They either make one that eats into their DSLR segment or they make one that sucks and leaves them wondering why they spent all that money on R&D and production. Companies like Fuji and Olympus don't have to worry about such things. They don't have another camera line within their own company to compete with. When Fuji came out with their X series, the S pro cameras were done with and they only had compacts and MF film cameras in their line up. This is why i think that we won't see Nikon come out with something like the X-T1 or the Oly. Just my prediction. [/QUOTE]
