Sony was the first major camera maker to completely focus on mirrorless cameras. It got the early mover advantage too and now, has phased out its DSLR camera models. Sony’s success pushed rivals Nikon and Canon into the mirrorless game with Nikon launching the Z6 and Z7 while Canon introducing the R5 and R6 models.
Now, Nikon Japan has marked its very well regarded DX DSLR, the D500 as discontinued.

In July 2019, it was rumoured that

While Nikon hasn’t expressly confirmed the rumors—in fact, they issued a press release this month calling the reports “speculation”—there’s been a downward trend in development and production of the DSLR camera.
