p.1 #2 · The D3X is finally selling for less than retail.
This economy coupled with the ridiculous price of the D3X, its no wonder that they are not selling many of those. I am still waiting to see if Nikon offers any rebate on them. I know it will not be soon, but it should be sometime.

Cameta was selling this camera for around $7K on fleabay. Cameta has a great reputation there and they are an authorized Nikon USA dealer, BTW. You can get $200 cashback through live.com and you would pay only $6,800.00.... But I am waiting for the D700x though .

Another $800 and I'll probably talk myself into a second body. Well worth the price if you ask me!
A D700x would be an interesting companion for it though - a nice lightweight camera with the same sensor. Great for hikes (I'm not looking forward to the D3x while backpacking)...

I like the option of being able to add a battery grip on a fairly small camera body and not built-in permanently ala D700. I don't need the firing speed of the D3x and I would like to keep the battery/charger the same. Why Nikon didn't put in the sensor cleaning system in the D3x is beyond me though.... .

you know i sort of was wondering about that too. but then i thought again in that it only works on minor issues of dust and on the D3 thats one less potential systematic failure

i wouldn't call the d700 lightweight. hopefully the cameras have reached their pinnacle of mass, and the next bunch will start a downward trend in weight loss.
