    And yes, it's already the 30th anniversary of the first Fujix DSLRs!
    The Fujix DS-505 and 515 were released in 1994, a collaboration between Fujifilm and Nikon

    It is hard to imagine such a collaboration between companies nowadays: both companies names are written on the camera bodies. The closest thing I can think of is Leica and Panasonic, they share many things internally and lenses are named same way but not the cameras.

    Did you know that Fujifilm made Hasselblad H lenses ?

    No I did not , perhaps because it is not written on the lenses :=']
    Many manufacturers ( car, telecom, camera etc) use other manufacturer's parts or sometimes whole equipment but it is interesting to see both brands written on a camera body.

    There was a lot more sharing in the early days of digital.

    But it's true that seeing both names displayed on the same camera is rather original.
