Well not a 9-10 FPS d400, but it's probably as close as it'll get. I'll take a couple.

looks like the spec could fill the gap between if they replace the d7000 with a d400...

I'm anxious to see if they've improved the noise performance of this sensor. I just purchased a d5100 a couple of weeks ago and it's a pretty sweet little camera.

They've significantly upgraded the d5200 AF module. The d5100 uses the multi-cam 1000 AF module. IIRC, the d7000 uses the multi-cam 4800 module. Wow, that's a pretty significant upgrade, IMO. I am going to track the reviews on this one very closely.

Why oh why can't Nikon put such a sensor in a better body, such as D400?

ATTN. NIKON - Forget the D5200 and gives us our D400. We have been more than patient.

The specs make it seem very close to the D7000- only things that aren't present are a battery grip (5100 didn't have a native one) and a second command dial. The 39 AF points and the 5fps were all features found on the D7000.

I'm with lou f- with the improved capability of the 5200 it makes sense that a D300s/7000 replacement would be pretty close to a Pro DX body.
