So, when Nikon finally gets around to making a D300 replacement in 2050, I figure it will have to be a "retro-styled" body to look just like the D300. What should they call it?

With the release of the D7s, in 2049, with 1.2million base iso to 5million high iso performance, 325fps, interchangeable 20,40,80,100mp files, i dont know if the D300 remake would even be worth it in 2050. It'd probably have an illuminated 'D300' badge....and thats it.

+1 lol!

I'm right behind you (Soylent Green comes to mind).

That said, it will probably come in the form of something you can wear on your eyes and/or make a call with while you're out walking your lemming.

D300A. The "A" is to honor the most patient man on the planet who waited 50 years for it

It would also have an EVF and fake plastic prism hump with a mirror sound when it fired with a 'pure photography' marketing campaign.

Hey Andre,

That's because your suggestions for the votes don't make sense. If it was a Retro D300, there would not be any "D400" in it's name. It would be a D300df perhaps, or something in that line, not D400...

And for as old as the D300 is now, I am thinking you already have your Retro camera.. it's called the "D300"...

I'd be less than 100, but not in any condition to have an interest in a D400.

Meanwhile, in 2050 there will be a D7999 that still doesn't exceed 6FPS.
