Looks very interesting an nice small size as a spare body, I like the retro style. Be interested to see reviews but image quality bound to be good. No video is no problem for me and many other photographers.


Good to see you back posting Graham, hopefully well on the way to full recovery.

I suspect one of the obstacle the Df will face is the functionality of the dials. Nostalgia is all very well, but we all become accustomed to new designs and features. I bet Nikon wouldn't sell many bodies if they went truly retro....and removed the LCD from the back!!

The price point is also a tad high. I think just under the 2k mark is more appropriate. But that puts in price conflict with the D610.... which compared to the D800 is also a tad overpriced. In fact there is an FX confusion with these 3 bodies. IMHO.
