Nikon next announcement (probably Tuesday, February 9th @ midnight)

the afs 35mm is below 550 and it's 1.8
:bsmilie:


jokes aside i think it'll just be another boring press conference.

definitely the price will never be at under 550 SGD for an AFS 1.8 lens :nono:
its 9th Feb. . . what good deal will Nikon come out with?

Can't wait...Will Nikon be announcing more cameras throughout Chinese New Year and the whole month of February?

hmm forgot about that lens, will even the 1.8 85mm be that cheap ??? The AFD version already cost more than that 2nd hand. :think:

Agreed, more fx lens pls... lots of old AFD in dire need of updates.. esp all the primes..

..... say until tied liao.... dunno when nikon is going to update the AFD primes. I gave up waiting and bought the 14-24mm... but that one has problems like the zoom mechanism, + huge.

If you look at the body from the link given, you will realise that the grip is integrated. Bottom of the grip also has the small LCD where you can change the ISO, QUAL, and WB (in the D3 series).

Thus, you are looking at something more than a D700 (IF its a new body), unless of course Nikon has decided that semi-pro bodies should also feature built in grips. To me, it looks like a D3x with a new lens... people said 16-35mm f/4 VR.. along with a 24mm f/1.4.... see how?

from this pic, its a D3 with a 14-24. geez you guys need to stop being so tense.
