Mouais (brevet) :

https://thenewcamera.com/nikon-z-cinema-cameras-to-feature-dual-display-patent-revealed/

"Obviously, not all patents translate into real-world products. At the very same time, the filing is so recent—just a few weeks ago—that it's hard for me to accept the fact that the upcoming Nikon Z Cinema camera on September 10th will have such a feature."

« De toute évidence, tous les brevets ne se traduisent pas par des produits concrets. En même temps, le dépôt est si récent — il y a seulement quelques semaines — qu'il m'est difficile d'accepter l'idée que la future caméra Nikon Z Cinema, prévue pour le 10 septembre, intègre une telle fonctionnalité. »

On verra...
