I'm in shock. Didn't expect the rumor sites to be correct, and this is exactly the spec'd camera at a better price point than I complained about when the D3X came out at 8k. Would love to get my hands on the "E" version...I just can't afford it.

Just got email from Nikon for priority preordering. They ask you to give them your deal name ASAP.

if the camera suits your needs it seems really well priced. might as well buy it from the site sponsors as i would not expect any discounts given the aggressive msrp. the d4, not so much, i think that camera is quite overpriced relative to the d800...

I can't believe this, it shoots 18 different format sizes

FX format (36 x 24): 7,360 x 4,912 (L), 5,520 x 3,680 (M), 3,680 x 2,456 (S)
1.2x (30 x 20): 6,144 x 4,080 (L), 4,608 x 3,056 (M), 3,072 x 2,040 (S)
DX format (24 x 16): 4,800 x 3,200 (L), 3,600 x 2,400 (M), 2,400 x 1,600 (S)
5:4 (30 x 24): 6,144 x 4,912 (L), 4,608 x 3,680 (M), 3,072 x 2,456 (S)
FX-format photographs taken in movie live view*: 6,720 x 3,776 (L), 5,040 x 2,832 (M), 3,360 x 1,888 (S)
DX-format photographs taken in movie live view*: 4,800 x 2,704 (L), 3,600 x 2,024 (M), 2,400 x 1,352 (S)

AT least Nikon left the Tripod socket alone...that would have been a deal breaker...still
"1/4 in. (ISO 1222)"

Yes, but I assume that is only for members of the Nikon Pro Service and only full time working pros can join that. I did and it was not easy.

If you pre-order from Adorama and use ebates.com you can get 2% off

B&H used to be on ebates but I have not seen them there lately...

By purchasing from the links above Fred Miranda get's a small purcentage of the sale, by posting on this thread to go elsewhere is kind of rude! If you want to use the site, support the site.

I believe wjmeyer inadvertently suggested what he felt was a better bargain. Lets not get carried away here with what rudeness is.

My apologies for sure, I meant no ill intent toward Fred's awesome site nor do I want to detract from anyone supporting his site. I've been a member here for many years and have never meant anything rude. I know that Fred moderates this forum and I would not be offended at all if he decides to remove my post.

I understood that D800 can produce the following raw files:
36 MP FX (3:2)
5:4 full-res (30 MP)
1.2X crop (full-res), 25 MP
DX (with DX lenses), 15 MP

Is it correct?

How hard is it going to be to get one when they are released? If I haven't preordered one yet, am I screwed?
