Many members on this forum use cameras other than Nikon.
I know that some of us use several different makes.  I personally use  Canon, Nikon, Fuji cameras.  Other use Fuji, Sony and Olympus as well as Nikon.
Therefore we are not an exclusive Nikon only forum.

Should we therefore realign the name of the forum to Digital Camera Group.
The domain name is available and we are due to renew the server hosting and domain name registration in March.

I'd go for the Digital Camera Group. As you say there is so many different cameras that members have now.

I think in addition to rebranding the forum some more considerations as to the sections we have may be worthwhile.
Some of the existing ones are a bit ambiguous and if other camera/lenses are being discussed they need segregating.

At 1st glance, yes !!!....but then again, there are other Digital Camera Forums/ Groups sounding like that , so perhaps a name that sets us somewhat apart from the others ,and maybe slip Nikon in it somehow, as it would be the main objective yeah...could we give it some thought before we take the plunge...

Just to point out that one downside of changing the url is that you then lose any links from other sites where the present url is mentioned, together with the Google search links that will continue to exist in search results.

This may actually lose you footfall as people get 404 errors - site not found.

A way round this is to retain the current url and redirect it to the new one but that incurs the cost of two domain names or just keep the current domain name and rebrand the content only.

I think that that will be a valid way forward as the cost of the domain for another year is reasonably small.

Not a bad shout, even beyond different brands, with the Z lineup, how much longer will DSLRs remain the only thing people search for...?

DSLR is only a means to an end - maybe "Digital Imaging Forum"?

digitalimagingforum.uk is available and free for 1st year with LCN.

I would prefer a *.com as that is easier for people to find especially from USA.
