more DX lenses?:think:
 

Haven't been buying lenses for quite some time. It's time for great Singapore sale :cool:

No no. It's time for the great Nikon profit. 11th is a Friday...hmm.
 

looking at the 85mm 1.4 AFS VRII---hopefully.
 

How I wish a 18-200 F2.8.... oh..... ;p
 

Got new body? Heard something about a 1.25x crop.

That seems silly. IMO 3 different lines of lenses (DX for APS-C (1.5), full-frame/35mm, and 1.25x crop) is a tad too much..
 

well the latest stuff I am looking at from all the weblogs, bbs, noticeboards in the land of the rising sun is that.

1. 15 new lens in development.
2. new AF-S lineup announcement on 11th May
3. D3X launch in May. 16.4mp 10FPS film size sensor
4. D200s

Please take everything with a large serving of salt.

Gah I need some porridge to mild the saltiness of everything.
 

Hmm this thread seem to be stating "wants" instead.

Somebody pls email this link to nikon...:bsmilie:

Heheh... yeah looks like it.

Anyway, more rumours to add

"Apparently Nikon is working on the lens line refresh.... Short term: mostly primes and exotics with AF-S and VR where appropriate, one new DX lens, one new mid-range zoom (apparently 35FF)"

That last one... hmmm does that mean AF-S 24-70mm ?

Please take everything with a large serving of salt.

You mean "get out that huge salt block and start licking ?" :)

salt licking aint enough, try crystalizing yourself.

Well my wishlist, realistically.

All for 35mm format.
AF-S 24-70mm f2.8
AF 35mm f1.4
AF-S 70-200mm f4
 

I hope there is a new D70x.....I love the size and control of this cam but hate the sensor :cry:
 

another rumor/wish:

on Fri 11 May, Nikon will also b holding the Great Nikon Sale with 50% discount. But, vigorous protest was mounted by current Nikon owners who demanded compensation for investing in the wrong horse. Finally, a compromised was reached - 50% discount to current owners of Nikon only. All others will have to pay the regular market prices.

realistic rumours is fine but making one up is just plain waste of time.

Christ if that really happened I'd get two copies of every single current production lens and camera. 1 copy to keep, the other to sell NIB for close to MSRP
 

No perspective control lens?;p
 

15 new lenses? That is a surprise, considering how badly the Thailand factory is struggling to put out enough copies of the 18-200 VR lens worldwide.
 

Maybe 50mm AF-S F/1.4 G? For the D40x.
