anyone heard of this? it was on nikon rumors, too. but what I heard was, on different source, this would be full frame, similar to D300 with minor difference except there aren't CF door open lever. it also has internal flash like D300 but SB-900 is also in development, i heard.

 

SB-900? Geez, over a decade of awesomeness from my SB-24 went out the window when I "had" to buy the SB-800 for Nikon's iTTL bodies. If the SB-900 intros some new system I'll scream.

 

Interested to hear what rumors are confirmed...

$3k is an awful lot of green for what's rumored!

A decent Live View mode would be cool. Maybe if ISO 200 is smoother than butter and higher ISO's don't hurt my eyes, sync speed is astounding, mirror locks up, yadda yadda...

Does anyone else want to see camera designs with a slide in/out low-pass filter? We're post-processing anyway so why not leave the choice to us?!

 

it is the same sensor as the d3 so high iso should look awesome.

 

With full frame and high ISO performance, I will buy one.

 

one other rumor I heard, that you might consider negative, is it only have one CF slot.

I believe it's design is based on D300. - it shares MB-D10. So it might be capable of live-view though i never use it.

 

did you switch from canon to nikon?

 

I have canon 52mm lens cap and strap hooked onto my nikon FM2 but I always have been nikon user.
