The last teaser vid for the Nikon is out and it looks like a pretty solid / fun to use camera, but then that is the marketing dept's job. Had a fleeting thought about using the $$$ I have been saving for a fast UWA for one of these things then remembered the MSRP. A Used D700 + old AI lens I already own would probably do the trick for a 1/3 the cost image-wise with less of the retro appeal and a mirror. http://www.slrlounge.com/body-elements-revealed-nikons-latest-pure-photography-teaser<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/7CfeddhQGHU?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> The ISO dial or whatever it is looks pretty nice but not $3K nice. One day.

I do wish it was 16mp rather then 12. A minor niggle, but would be nice. That's really the only upgrade I'd like, I think. Everything else works great for me.

I've printed 2'x3' images from my D700's files with no signs of softness or pixelation.

YeahThe Sigma 120-300/2.8 is looking pretty good, albeit expensive
"Gonna go into the woods and see what I can photograph." crunch, crunch, crunch. Bill's the only creature in the entire forest who didn't hear him coming.  The 'leaked' photos of the Nikon are out and it's a little more goobered up than I was hoping, but wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers. http://www.slrlounge.com/leaked-images-new-nikon-df-cameraThe dedicated ISO and shutter dials are pretty sweet.
no go for me at $2750, per the amazon leak. oh well. maybe back to lusting after an xpro1 with the 23 1.4, if it ever ships...
