the photo is a fake, here is the link to the original photo:

You know its a fake when the image is really grainy. Why would anyone submit a photo that grainy. Even if the photo was taken by a camera phone, camera phones quality are pretty decent these days.

Here’s the solution! Sorry guys but the picture is fake, like most of you already figured out. Still it was fun to read your comments! Five more days and we’ll get the real stuff!!

P.S. It looks exactly like a D70 camera strap (remember those? yeah, some of you do ). if this person really had a D700, it wouldnt have taken so much effort to shoot it showing the extra ’0′, or shooting it with your FX lenses ;P

He has a sigma 10-20mm lens in the background, if youre using an top secret uber-awesome FX sensor camera, why would you shoot it with a DX lens in the background?

Thom Hogan’s confirming Nikon’s announcement next week. Only no details yet:

” More Next Week
June 25–It appears that Nikon will announce the first in a series of new product rollouts next week. I’ll obviously have full details and an analysis, as usual. But there will be a more than Nikon’s news posted on this site next week. Stay tuned…”

Ole Thorsen, who posts frequently in DPr says it's not the 18-200, end of first rubber ring is different.

The “7″ in D700 on the strap is far too crooked to be real.

Look like a D300 with Photoshop relooking but the D70 sling does not mention D70 on it but only Nikon! Photoshop as well

It’s a D200, the lower socket cover is photoshoped, the strap is from a D70, and the D700 is photoshopped

Yeah. I'm pretty sure that it is real. It shares the same traits as the Chinese student's brochure images.

The one thing that bothers me is the DX lens on it and the DX lens behind it.

Why is this so?

I think it's real. David Chin shot a D300 at same angle and it was put on top of it with an animation by saminda. Check here, observe that the D700 is taller, the prism top is curved and whole camera is larger vertically (IMO the D700 is farther form view point than D300 in these images).

No, caps and sockets aside, I still think the picure is a fake. I'll go a step further than you and point out that, as is, it couldn't be a D200, since it has two sockets like the D300 where the D200 has only one.

However, if this is a photo of the soon-to-be released D700, and this person has access to it, let them take a clean, focused, noise free photo. Whow knows, maybe they could use a flash to illuminate the camera, even a decent desk lamp or any other light source that would allow for a decent image. I would think he/she would be able to and would want to provide such a photo if they weren't trying to hide something with this noisy and detail-lacking image. Like I said, I hope that the D700 is real, but I don't think that this is a picture of one.

Give me a decent photo of the D700 that doesn't look like it was taken by a three year old in a dimly lit room, and I will give it more consideration, but until then, I say fake.
