p.8 #1 · Nikon D700 ...

I really wonder why the Chinese always get first dibs. Anyone with a D300 or D3 manual, can you look where it's printed/made? Does it say China (PRC, Taiwan ROC etc) or Japan?

If it says Japan, then why is this 'rumor' not from a Japanese forum?

I have an EOS 450D manual right here with me it says, "Printed in Japan."

Speculating is one thing. Love a good rumour. What is disturbing is things like selling off your camera because of a new camera rumour. Or telling staff they don't know what they're talking about and nearly getting into a fight about it.

Good point. Conceiving a new cap cover design would really be a big step in if those images are fake.

Personally I would find it easier to do a 3d model of a D300 then mess with that rather than photoshop a fake. So when everyone says Photoshop jobs, it's probably easier (if you've had experience) to model the thing and render it.

This really has nothing to do with my own speculations on the matter of real/fake. All I'm saying is, 3d modeling programs make it so easy to manipulate existing models to the point of it seeming perfect. Because on the computer, it is. It's not just photoshop anymore kids.

Even a dSLR is a Single Lens Reflex camera, it just isn't a FILM SLR!

Now we know the date...

Hey, I'm still waiting for KM's imminent upgrade to the 7D. I understand it's in the containers and crossing the Pacific now!

KM no longer exists. Although, KR does.
