Nikon D2300
There is a possibility that the D2300 will be the first DSLR-like camera without an optical viewfinder D2300 is a preliminary name and it can change Weight: 290g Announcement in May 2014 That camera is so light when you compare it with a D610 (850grams) it is nearly a third of its weight.

Looking at these details I woudl expect this camera to be only able to accept AFS G style lenses but technically it should be able to do either it just depends on Nikons vision of the camera.

Pffft!!! They should be looking at shutting up the clamouring hordes who want a d400 first! My d200 is dying and I'm going to have to replace it soon. *sulks*

D700?, Judith. Almost as good as a D3 but much lighter and with all the accessories that the D200 could use. I dont know how your lens situation is but if you havent invested in DX lenses heavily it is worth the move up to FX. Got a low use D700 if you are interested and it has the battery grip if you want more battery power.

No it isn't. As I keep telling you, the d700 is too damned heavy for my delicate little arms!! And I like the extra reach of the DX, esp with my new 70'300mm. Sigh....

I hate to say this but the D200 is the same weight as the D300...so in the unlikely event of there ever being a D400, I can't see it being any lighter than what you already have. Incidentally the D700 is only 100g heavier than the D200 ( the D610 is even less!) but as you say...not DX. I think you would be better looking at the D7100 for a better mix of weight and performance. Or wait for the D7200 which may end up being the D400 in D7000 clothing.

Ah well I made the offer. Dont say you didnt get first refusal. I understand the need for DX especially with telephoto lenses. Robert also wants a FX camera so maybe he will be interested but I think he would rather have my D3.

I will probably slim down the cameras but keep the lenses. I am investing more in my lighter and equally good Fuji X series cameras.

Trouble is the d300s isn't that great an improvement re high iso on the d200. I find the light here in the north of Scotland is pretty poor and I'm fed up trying to hand hold at stupid shutter speeds even in the middle of the day sometimes. So, I want a "modern" camera that will last me for ages without needing and upgrade. I'm surprised the D700 is only 100g heavier as anytime I've held one it feels like a much bigger beast.
