Here the Df and D800 are identically priced at $3095 body only. D800E is $3335.

Very strange pricing with such big differences around the world.

No split image viewfinder screen so I can use my old MF lenses properly.


Otherwise it is a Nikon so that is OK.


Seems like the aftermarket isn't asleep at the wheel ;~)

I've yet to see one but agree the price in UK is far too high.

I agree.  This camera is at best 'worth' £1750.  For me it should be priced closer to the D610 price (£1355) but with a small premium for the new/old design so about £1600.

This is excellent.
You have to watch it all the way through.

Very funny...and enlightening.

But he touches on one of my concerns about running the Fuji system alongside the Nikon bodies... dissimilar controls.

Having to think, even for a moment, which camera you are using and which dials to turn may slow you down, but it doesnt necessarily slow you down in a manner that improves your pictures....it just distracts you.

If you want to slow yourself down and think more about your photography, put a 50mm lens on ANY on your favourite bodies... and just use that.



I still would like a D3 AND lens reduced to Fuji weight and size. ;-)

I dont find it a problem and sometimes I am running them side by side on the same shoot.
