Noct: Nikon subrand for FF MILCs?

They seem to have put a lot of effort in getting this right from the
start. I'll probably won't get me one but am truly exited to see how this
will push the envelope for MILCs! :-))

Given how far behind they are in mirrorless they can't afford to screw
this up. But a separate brand? Makes no sense to me. The Nikon brand
is knows world wide, so why not leverage that name? Unless it's just a
product line name.

A sub brand is not a separate brand. iPhone is Apples sub brand for
feature telephones, just like Xperia is Sonys for smart phones...

Nikonos, Nikkormat and Nikkor are other Nikon subs, so it's not like it's
new to them...
