I still miss my D300 and 18-20 lens so am watching this page with interest. D800 is working well and producing outstanding quality but bag full of large lenses is heavy to carry on overseas holiday trips. I have looked at the 24-120 f4 as a holiday lens for D800 but the £800 UK retail price is almost what you could get a D7000 and standard lens for! I shall keep my money in the bank for now!

Happy NY to you all!

Hi Graham.
Happy New Year.

The next set of announcements should start to emerge on Monday 7th Jan at the CES show in Las Vegas.

There is much talk of the D7000 replacement and also maybe even a Nikon1 V3 - heavens the V2 has only just been released. I havent heard anything specific about the D400 but 2013 must be the year for it!!

If they do bring out D400 I hope they will not get too silly with 24Mp, 14 MP would be quite enough for a DX camera. Go for first class D800 class auto focus and keep price below £1000 in UK?

dunno on that the d7000 is above that already ,i think they will probably (insert hopefully ) go for 24mp already in use ,newer processor ,51 point af ,faster focus and larger ,quicker buffer .anything less than this you might as well buy a d5200 o.Oo.O

Well all my information from the rumour mill points to a 24MP camera.
It's as densely packed with photosites as the D800 sensor. In fact slightly more so!!

20MP would be more than sufficient in my opinion.  Nikon need to start to differentiate the FX and DX cameras more by keeping the pixel density the same for both sized sensors.  I think this will achieve more sales for them.

In which case I will stick with my trusty D200 with it's inferior 12Mb sensor.  It may be noisy in poor lighting but I don't take many photo's in poor lighting and in any case I rather the coa**e noise of the D200 to the horrid fine gritty noise which seems the norm from the D7000 sensor.

 :hardhat:

I may look round for one of these junk D3's which presuamably will being chucked in skips due to their low pixel density.  My lads scour skips, I will tell them to watch out for D3's...  :devil:

;-)

I'll warn you Robert when I am going to dump my D3 but it wont be any time this year.

I'm actually waiting for the D7000 to go end of life so I can replace my D70 that goes in my underwater housing as I want more than 6MP and it needs to be a small enough body so only a D80, D90, or D7000 will do.  If it doesnt happen soon then I will need to get a D90 camera.
Come on Nikon release the D7000 replacement!

My D3100 is very handy little body, I have used it to record the Marlin rebuild, and some of the images will be finding their way into a National Kit car mag on the 10th Jan but for what I consider serious stuff I still reach for the D200.

I took a couple of hundered pix of infants performing their nativity play just before Christmas in mixed lighting with no flash, using both bodies, most of the best ones are from the D200.
