Nikon Corporation Company Profile
Nikon's focus extends far wider than most consumers would believe. Though well-known for its cameras, lenses, and other consumer optical products, Nikon vies with national rival Canon and Netherlands-based ASML Holding to be the world's top producer of photolithography steppers, which is the crucial equipment used to etch circuitry onto semiconductor wafers and LCD panels. The company also makes a range of other products, including eyewear, surveying instruments, microscopes, industrial equipment, and electronic imaging equipment. Founded in 1917, Nikon is part of the huge Mitsubishi "keiretsu", a group of businesses linked by cross-ownership.
