Nikon announced a partnership with lifestyle brand Gaston Luga to produce what it bills as a stylish yet functional weather-resistant camera backpack, but it isn't available to buy. Not directly, anyway.

Merriam-Webster defines “retro” as “fashionably nostalgic or old-fashioned.” With the rise in popularity of shooting on film over the past few years and the extraordinary success of instant cameras among the general populace, I think it is fair to say that retro cameras are likewise lusted after by many.
This week Nikon launched the Zf, a full-frame retro-inspired camera that packs some serious technology and gives us a glimpse into the company's future. But we have some questions about retro design: is it all nostalgia or is there more to it?

Nikon has announced the Zf, a retro-inspired camera that combines the iconic design of Nikon's historic FM2 film camera and the modern technology of acclaimed Nikon Z series mirrorless cameras like the Nikon Z6 II, Z8, and flagship Z9.
