Can't see that there's anything wrong with these cameras other than an MP upgrade (if even that was necessary)? D3 went to D3X .... In a recession people don't have the bucks to buy new cameras at higher prices so sales will be lean. Therefore just upgrade what Nikon has and offer greater 'value for money' to maintain sales at some sort of acceptable level and consolidate. My guess is that Nikon users want new lenses above new cameras and would be more enticed into buying a better or additional lens for their arsenal.

I agree with Thom Hogan: its price will go up a bit. At that point, one D400 will cost the same as two D300's or one D300 with a thou' in lenses, flashes, or whatever. I don't care about video, Live View isn't very important, and the D300's sensor makes plenty big enlargements and is sensitive enough for my needs. With the economy still being somewhere between awful and horrible by then, I don't expect the D400 to sell all that well. Waiting for the D500 will really make a lot of sense.

Hoping for a PMA launch but I won't hold my breath. Besides if I buy a D300 and the D400 is not to market until the end of the year I might just have to make the D300 my lowly backup camera... now that would be a shame ;) I’m considering a D300 in the spring but interested in what the D400 looks like if launched shortly.
