Just wait a few months. The Euro has a good chance of being at par by then.

Did they copy their info from [NR]
Iso is mentioned here back down to 12.800 again.

Compared to this design and layout 1D X is a real beauty.

I know .. just kidding. I don't have $6000 to spend on a body. I would spend it on a super-tele though. But, looks like a sweet upgrade for D3 owners.


By the way .. does this seem legit? :0

What are those buttons next to the AF-on buttons? Look like extra directional pads.


Most likely. The D3's are missing a d-pad when vertical, not sure why it needs the mini one next to the main one though. I guess it makes changing AF points while composing easier, but then I don't see a real need for the large d-pad.

No differentiation between AF-S and AF-C on the focus switch either??


I may be wrong, but it looks like it might have the centre push-button in the AF/MF switch à la D7000. The one thing that really frustrated me about the D700 after using a D7000 was the lack of on-the-fly AF adjustment. With the D7000, you just press the centre button and spin the rear command dial for AF-S, AF-C or AF-A and spin the front command dial for 9, 21, 39 point or 3D tracking.

I presume they've used the D7000 implementation:

switch for AF or M

Push button inside the switch:

Rear dial controls mode: AF-A, AF-C, AF-S
Front dial controls number of points from single, 9 point, 21 point, 39(51) point, 3D, Auto Area.

It is a better way of controlling the mode + point spread IMO, and most I know who've used both for a decent period of time prefer it.

Wow, they really moved the AF-ON button for the vertical grip. The CF door is also a good bit smaller, which makes sense if the XQD rumor is true.

What's with the glut of buttons and dials? Yuck. It seems to be D7000 inspired buttons galore design. What happened to Nikon's simple ergonomics?

d800... d400 where are you?

Hey, you guys, D4 is bigger, heeavier, and costs more than D3s. D3x price is dropping. I think I will for 24MP! 16MP is disappointing. just 2/3!!!?

Doesn't look much different than the D3 series. Why would a Canon user care?

I may just be delusional, but did they remove the focus and metering mode dials?

That Italian designer guy sure does a nice job on those Nikon bodies. Definitely a step up from Canon's industrial stealth bomber brutalism.

I do like the lines on the top front coming off the viewfinder much better on the D4 than on the D3s.
