I think that the D400 will be still born as it looks like Nikon is trying to push FX for pro use and DX for it lower level cameras. It would appear that they are not the only ones if the rumours are right as they are suggesting that Canon is doing the same thing.

I think DX cameras still hold quite a few advantages over FX. I miss my D300 and 18-200mm lens when I need one lighter camera and lens when I am shooting video. With FX you do need to carry a lot more kit to get the same lens range and for 90% of the photography most of us do (and I also mean pro photographers) D300 and 18-200mm lens does a very good job!!!

I agree, Graham. DX is the way to go for everything but wide angle shooting. With DX, you get the middle of the lens (fx ones) and that gets away from any imperfections it might have. You save a LOT taking advantage of the 1.5x magnification. No question that FX is best for wide angle. Reality... Probably need both, but not the latest of either ![]() Tom

The advantage of Fx is definitely there with wideangle and landscapes plus in high ISO the interpixel spacing seems to give better/lower noise results. However when you see the results from the D800 at 6400ISO then you start to wonder what the results would be like from a more reasonable 24MP D400 on a DX format. I think they would be just as good. My Fuji XPro1 (18MP, DX) at 3200ISO produces great results.

i get decent results from my d7000 right up to iso3200 as well ,there is noise present in some RAW files at this iso but they always respond well to decent noise software .lets not forget a couple of years ago you could but dream of getting something out at these sort of exposures . and having trod the canon path for a few years i know full well that nikon beats them hands down in high iso shooting conditions ![]() ![]()

Enough bashing me, I doubt a D800 is in the cards for the foreseeable future for me!! My D700's are doing all I ask of them, even if it is far and few between askings??? I did make a run to the Boston Zoo, prompted my a former colleague from my days shooting racing images. One of his regular haunts is the Los Angele's Zoo, and he has been getting some great images there. Unfortunately for me, the Boston Franklin Zoo, is nothing to bother with, more them a lot of bar's fences and wire mesh screens to discourage even snap shot photography.. The Zoo trip was perhaps my first Photo trip is well over a year or so, and I have little to show for the trip.. The attached image was shot through a 4" square Wire Fence and a heave gauge, wire chain-link fence hung a few feet behind it.. 400mm wide open (f4) does wonders but it's still more of a compromise then I was will to waste my time doing!!! ![]() Attachment: Nice Pussy cat-212_9199.JPG (Downloaded 92 times)

I wish even some of my images were as good as that Ray! If that's a poor compromise the roll out the good ones! ![]() Lovely image.
