Nikon Corporation has recently changed its management structure, with the appointment of Muneaki Tokunari as new representative director, president, COO and CFO this month. With the change in personnel comes a change in Nikon's operations, as it looks to collaborate further with other companies.
The company has always taken pride in manufacturing everything 'in-house', setting high standards in quality and efficiency with some of the best mirrorless cameras on the market. However, the changing of the guard also means a change to Nikon's production plans, as it will start outsourcing more of the development of its products.
