| It may have been Gilbert, I was under the impression there was still speculation as to whether it was to be a D4S or a D5...

| I think that it was confirmed it would be a D4S rather than a D5 but anything more was speculation. All the rumours that I have heard are saying that the D4S info will be released in mid-February.

| Looking at what's new and whats improved I really cant get excited. Got to say that my D3S, D800 and D600 excite me more! I must be getting old.

| JK, re: getting old So are most of us (grin) Looking at the comparison on the USA nikon site, improvements are minor, as is appropiate with a minor update. Some electronics upgrade (and more economical on power) Some extra features like small-RAW. Regards, Gilbert

Gilbert Sandberg wrote:JK, Thanks Gilbert. I remember I felt the same when Nikon released the F4 as I thought my F3 was a thing of great beauty along with my FM and FE. So i never had a F4. Then when the F5 came out I had a pair of F801s cameras before I got my D1. I guess that my Nikons will stay much the same until a D5 or D400.

| Park Cameras in UK are now taking pre orders for body only £5199. The 16.2 MP has a revamped and improved sensor. The high ISOs image quality are claimed by Nikon to be greatly improved. It's interesting that Nikon have failed to replace the D3X with a D4X with D800 type spec in the larger body?

| NIKON SAID: "Built to keep you ahead of the game with valuable feedback from professional users, everything about the new D4S powers exceptional images at exceptional speed - from an expanded ISO range from 50 to 409,600 (equivalent) and EXPEED 4 image processing, with advances to AF performance which offers improved acquisition and tracking at 11 fps. On Sale from 6th March"

The high ISOs image quality are claimed by Nikon to be greatly improved. I confess I no longer understand the Nikon strategy of tweaking current models at the expense of filling obvious gaps in their range. It's clear there is a market for a pro DX body with all the performance of their top FX model. They seem to think the D7100 is adequate...but it's not. I am not sure the D800 sensor needs to be in a D4 body? It's primarily a tripod based studio/landscape body to capitalise on its detail...and is less likely to need the speed of use or ISO range that traditionally comes with the bigger housing models.

| Graham, re: replace the D3X As far as I know, tha market for the D3x is small. Many people who want the resolution may be satisfied with the D800's less ruggedness etc. compared to a single-digit camera. An other argument may be the slow speed of the D3x, e.i. Nikon developers must have been waiting for faster electronics. My guess: with the latest electronics, and XQD card, a D4X with a sensor like the D800 may be in the cards. Regards, Gilbert

| I agree with that also commercial photographers and advertising photographers needing high quality large files are going to look at digital Hasselblad or larger. I find the D800 is fine for me and I would find it very hard to justify £5000 even if a D4X did come out!

| I was talking to one of the camera sales guys here in Hong Kong and he was complaining about the lack of a new high end 24MP replacement for the D300 e.g. The fabled D400. I feel that Nikon have lost the plot with respect to APS-C as they are only releasing consumer models with this size sensor and only FX sensors for professional range of cameras.

| Having read all of the above , I wonder if that Df is a " warning " of things to come , can n`t wait for Dave Groen to post an ( in depth ) review , incl. how it performs with older Nikkors.

| I saw several Df cameras being toted and in the shops in Hong Kong. I think when I compare my smaller XT1 camera with its APS-C sensor with many advanced features I realise where I would rather be with my daily camera but appreciated the FX format for some shooting. I remain convinced that the D400 is a highly desirable addition to the Nikon range of cameras and that more that 24MP provides too much detail except for studio pack shots or photography of landscape with a view to producing extremely high detail. I might have missed the odd niche or specialist type of photography.
