     Looks to me like a microscope adapter, so you can photograph what you are looking at. Extreme macro photography?

   Is that a D400 connected to that thing!?!?!?

   Just kidding.

     You’re absolutely right. I have both the D700 and the D300 and here’s my analysis of that photo:
     It seems to have:
     - a D700 card door
     - a D300 viewfinder (D700 is round)
     - D700 control buttons (D300 does not have a seperate center button)

     lastly

     - Appears to have a smaller top lcd (D700’s is smaller than the D300)

     Hmm maybe a D700 with a D300 eyepiece?

       D700 with a D300 eyepiece. That’s exactly what I’m expecting the D400 to be. I don’t think this is a coincidence…

       Don’t forget the D90’s control knob (top left hand side)… Doh! No D400 here.

   It is marcian UFO checking out new Nikon D800

     I think the viewfinder’s prism housing is too small for FX. I still stand by my D400 call.
     I’m just upset that it looks like I’ll have to convert to SD from CF when I upgrade from the D300.

       That’s the new Micro CF system there. Don’t worry about having to convert. I think there are adapters. Your current CF cards should fit in the (included) CF-to-Micro-CF adapter.

         Sweet. I can’t wait for Micro CF. Mostly I want to see those adapters.
