Son of FeiningerBlogaholics reports that 95% of Nikon's business is in digital photography now. The company is phasing out all film-based large-format and enlarging camera lenses, as well as its entire non-professional line of SLR and point-and-shoot cameras and lenses.

All that will be left is the top-of-the-line F6 professional film SLR and the midrange FM10 (and apparently not the rugged fully mechanical FM3A, oddly—those will get snapped up), as well as a total of nine manual lenses.
