Nikon Thailand stops production due to flooding.

In light of recent and severe flooding in Thailand, all Nikon production lines have been stopped at the Nikon Thailand Corporation after the evacuation order was issued on October 6th.  This Nikon plant is responsible for manufacturing entry-level and mid-level DSLRs as well as a number of the NIKKOR interchangeable lenses. There are anticipated product shortages on most of the DSLR and NIKKOR Lens products, expect this to affect prices and availability on many of the Nikon products. Thankfully there have been no reported injuries or loss of life of any Nikon employees. We will keep you up to date with more information as this situation unfolds.
