Nikon press release on 2010, february 2nd ???

Post by Stany Buyle »

From the website of Michel Lammerse, Dutch professional photographer:
Michel Lammerse wrote:Well I got a mail about the Nikon press release today for the 2nd of February (mentioned due to wrong typing as 3rd before.) . A proven sign that we can expect new things to come. My contact as is with every new release is put officially now into ’silent mode.’ Although I cannot share details,...

My personal expectations, my guesses and my hopes for the upcoming announcement...
D700s ??? (D700 with D3s sensor and video) (my hope...)
D900 ??? (D700 alike body with 20.4Mp sensor and video) (my bet)
17-40 F4 AF-S ??? (my bet)
200mm AF-S VRII micro ??? (my bet)
100-500 AF-S VRII ??? (my hope)
80-400 AF-S VRII ??? (my bet)
24-105 F4 AF-S VRII ??? (my bet)
35mm F2.0 AF-S??? (my guess)
24-70 F2.8 AF-S VRII ??? (my hope, but won't be, yet...)
kindest regards,

Whch means what? :? Significantly improved video ><D300s? :o

I would like the D700 successor to be a D3s "retina" in a D700-alike body. :D More for the same price is welcome of course :D ..., but with "more" I don't mean especially "more" pixels... ;)

Probably NO "new DSLR" announcement of february 2nd???

Post by Stany Buyle »

I have since many years a good contact with somebody who is working for Nikon as a salesman, "that person" visits Nikon dealers in "a country" in Europe.
I phoned with "that person" today in relation the 2nd of february and "that person" said: There will be something new, but no reflex(DSLR)... :cry: :cry: :cry:
I was extremely disappointed hearing this and I sincerely hope that person is completely wrong, and it could be that Nikon Japan keeps their mouth shut, even for their own representants in the different countries worldwide.

That's all I know. What I wrote here above is 100% truth about what that person told me and the information could be totally wrong. Of course I can't mention name, country or even not he/she...
kindest regards,

Stany
