D600 Full Frame announced! (not official yet)

[rain5533]

We are having a conversation about vapourware, just wait for the waiting game to begin.

Whoever is right or wrong about it will not get a slice of the profit from Nikon.

Cheers.

No wonder so excited to know each word..
Hope it not longer will appear in your real eye and touch with feel it.

I would have been more interested in the D400. Looks like nikon isn't interested in DX shooters anymore. :-(

Can lah. The Nikon D7000 is still a very competent camera!

Plus, Nikon plugged a brand new 24MP DX sensor into the D3200. I am sure there is still growth for the DX product line.

I am guessing they're finding it difficult to 'shoehorn' a pro-DX into a price bracket in between D7k and 'budget FX'. The lines are blurring...

 

[fmeeran]

I'll settle for a 7d style firmware update increasing cache for d7000. ;-)

 

[rain5533]

Look like the D600 really wanna standby to coming into town..

So far list up the D7000 & D700 has been discounted.

Some say, using DX is for the extra reach. It depends.

This is true only if the pixel in the DX is smaller than your current camera. Say you have D800, the DX in D800 is actually like a cropped D7000 hence not much of 'extra reach' if you shoot on D7000.

For real 'extra reach', you need something like D3200 with very small pixel pitch. Then when you zoom 100% you will see that you have 'reached further'.

How to make use of more DX bodies?

Say in a church wedding I have D800 on a 14-24 mounted somewhere high up. Then D3S on hand with a 70-200. If I have a few more D7000 I can put them at interesting location, then do wireless trigger with the handheld D3S as the master/commander. Whether phottix or pocket wizard.

Of course if you have lots of budget you can go for WIFI and softwares like Capture NX. I have never tried it though.

Are you referring to the article posted on Nikon rumors indicating that the Nikon D7000 is posted as discontinued at Amazon.de?

There is still a lot of questions surrounding that post, and maybe believe it is an error by the Amazon staff, as some of the points in the post in Amazon.de are inconsistent.

Oh, I didn't notice this until now. Do you mean discounted or discontinued? Because if it is the former, then you are right. Both the Nikon D7000 and D700 are available at a street price much lower than their launch prices.

Yaloh still a question. Dunno real or unreal.

In the DX of D7000 really powerful in DX cam and hope it only will replace by D7100 and now still unknown yet..

D800 and D7000 have the same pixel pitch. One costs one third the price of the other. Ergo reach at cheaper price.

Update today news from Nikonrumors
http://nikonrumors.com/2012/08/30/updated-specifications-for-the-nikon-d600.aspx/#more-44016

Look like more real for 99% for anytime pop up the image..

16 bit image processing??

 

[Blur Shadow]

I read that too. Max shutter speed of 1/4000s is odd though. I am used to a max shutter speed of 1/8000s.

 

[NikF601]

Interesting update from Nikonrumor...

I thought the D40 had 1/4000s only

looks like a competent replacement for D700, if it was intended to be one. The specs are quite suitable. Only thing left is the build quality and the ergonomics.

Ergonomics might be a problem since they mentioned "very small and lightweight body". I wonder how small is very small.

if it is D7000-sized, that'd be quite nice. But if they place lots of buttons, dials and switches on the body, there won't be enough real estate for good ergonomics.
oh well. No point thinking too much about it. Photokina is not far away

Now where did I put my flight ticket?

Looking forward to the Photokina announcement on 180912 (Tue).
