Copyright Nikon Corporation

Post by nikonnl »

Hi out there!

I digged up my old Nikon D1 and Nikon D1H and made some shots. While looking to the NEF images, made with the D1 in Nikon View NX2 I saw in the Metadata - File info 2 four lines of text: date shot / time zone and date / image quality / copyright: copyright Nikon Corporation 1999. The latter was not shown along Jpeg images. Neither did I see that line when images made with the D1H - in NEF and jpeg - were shown. I've never seen this copyright info on any other Nikon camera.

Did you?

My Nikon D1 may be a prototype given its serial number (5000009). I cannot alter any info in these metadata file, so it must be inserted at the factory, or?

Any comments and experiences are welcome.

regards,

Nico

Nico,
My D1 is something like 13.500 and has the same copyright 1999 line in NEF files.
Visible both in ViewNX/2 and Kuso-exif-viewer.
Note that the next line (in VNX2) is a line called Image Comment (sometimes called the user copyright notice).
Regards, Gilbert
PS I checked some .jpg files (being certain they are direct jpg shots) : no 1999 line.
