Only one card slot and no grip, what's all that about?

I think Nikon seem to have lost their way.
The last FF Nikon was the D5 very expensive and heavy. I want a FF 24MP D800/810 look alike! I dont like the D750, due to the accessories connector socket, I prefer the 10pin connector.

This is what Nikon need to produce.

How difficult can that be.
They have all the lenses. They can build a Nikon1 V2 on steroids and they have it. In reality they just need to put it in a D810 body and throw away the mirror box system.

I agree that looks a very good camera but there would be a lot of cost with a whole new set of lenses. Many like me have a huge stock of Nikon Glass including £6000 cost 500mm lens!

You wouldnt need new lenses with this camera as the logical design is FF but mirrorless. Therefore the flange to focal plane will be shorter than for current Nikon FX cameras so for FX lenses then a spacer about 5-10mm ring is all that would be required.

So would you be able to use your Nikon lenses with all features?

If Nikon made the new FX mirror less with the same electronics as their mirrored models, it would be be a simple straight thru wiring like that found on automatic extension tubes.

Logically yes.

Yes exactly and there is no reason to change the interface, especially the G lenses which have fully electronic interfaces.

This is why I find it so strange that Nikon do not have a FX sized mirrorless camera.
The Nikon1 series is fine it is just cripple for professional use by the sensor size.
