I let the speculation and debate start.

Personally I dont think it is the D400 but more of a Nikon FA-Digital.

FX may stand for film extra (needed).
:lol:

There has been so much on-line speculation about a D400 that I think if one is ever released, almost no-one will be satisfied with with the camera ;~)

I agree it will be so long awaited it will be anti-climactic.

Apparently this rumoured camera will be a Nikon DF.

DF = ? Digital Film ?

The camera info is due for release in November probably 6th Nov.
DF actually stands for Digital Fusion... apparently.  Whatever that is.

Dont know but at a guess I think that the camera will be a Nikon FA with a digital equivalent insert and a TFT on the back that allows use of MF or AF lenses.


The bit I dont understand is that to allow for good manual focus you need to have a split image or fresnel or microprism screen but really focussing could be by EVF or eye.  Which then begs the question what happens to the pentaprism and mirror ?  Removed I guess. 
If that is the case then we have a 'game changer' or paradigm shift camera.
The next D5 (FX) and D500 (DX) will be without a pentaprism and mirror.  

Interesting times ahead.
