Nikkor is the lense for Nikon camera!!!!
No, it's not a case ...( 8 months ago by bengreet)
No, it's not a case of potato, potato. It's a Japanese word and it is pronounced Nick-on. There is no other way to say it. You don't go out for Su-shy...you have sushi. The dude from Karate Kid was Mr Miyagi... not Mr My-a-guy. Think about how you pronounce the letter 'i' in all the Japanese words you can think of: Hiroshima Nagasaki Takahashi Sukiyaki etc... The incorrect pronunciation from Americans drives me mad.

Well, the Nikon rep ...( 6 months ago by goodinavacuum)
Well, the Nikon rep in the video is pronouncing it "Nai-kon" so presumably Nikon's USA branch pronounces it this way. And using your examples as a guide, wouldn't Nikon be pronounced "Nee-kon" if the letter I was always pronounced with a long E sound, like in "sushi", rather than "Nick-on", like you state?
You're right, a2b1 ...( 6 months ago by rollakid)
You're right, a2b1 is wrong. Go to Nikon Japan site and you'll see "Kabushikigaisha Nikon" (株式会社ニコン)。 ニコン = Nikon Word by word in katakana: 二 = Ni, pronounce like "Knee" but not that long. Think of "nick" but no "ck" at the back. コ = Ko. ン = N. Kon. Hard to find a perfect example, kind of in between "Con" and "Gone", the former let out too much air, and the later kind of too many "G" sound. So, it's more like "Knekon". It's Japanese, so pronounce it Japanese way. Sounds like neko... (¯3¯)

The correct ...( 4 months ago by boyblue1171)
The correct pronunciation of Nikon is "Nee-Kon." When Americans say "Nigh-Kon," that is incorrect. But just like when they pronounce Los Angeles as "Los Anjelees" instead of the correct Spanish "Los Ang-he-les," common usage rendered Nigh-Kon as acceptable. Acceptable, but not necessarily correct.

Think about how you pronounce the letter 'i' in all the Japanese words you can think of:
Hiroshima
Nagasaki
Takahashi
Sukiyaki
etc...
The incorrect pronunciation from Americans drives me mad.
KNEE-cone.
Go to Nikon Japan site and you'll see "Kabushikigaisha Nikon" (株式会社ニコン)。
ニコン = Nikon
Word by word in katakana:
二 = Ni, pronounce like "Knee" but not that long. Think of "nick" but no "ck" at the back.
コ = Ko.
ン = N.
Kon. Hard to find a perfect example, kind of in between "Con" and "Gone", the former let out too much air, and the later kind of too many "G" sound.
So, it's more like "Knekon". It's Japanese, so pronounce it Japanese way. Sounds like neko... (¯3¯)
