I want a flash sync at 8000th/sec without shooting in the HS flash sync mode, so I can use my Dynalites or any other flash outside to beat the sun. At 200 ISO you are really limited to 250 @ f/16.

Seems suspect, D400 should likely be a DX sensor, no?

With an eye sensor like the D60 there would be no problems with nose-touchscreen-

the translation was not correct after all -
“I have to pick right or wrong, win points, get awards”
scroll down for a translation from a native

Re:Touchscreen:Nikons have been a little off for lefteyed people-now they want us to have problems with our noses instead of just having the advance lever stuck in our right eye ala F,F2,F3,etc?I always had to buy MotorDrives I didn’t really need to deal with that.C’mon!

Actually there is a difference. Due to natural effects beyond their ability to reasonably control each CPU is different. This effects the speed a processor can run at. Once the die is cut each CPU is tested to see at what speed it can run. Once that is determined they put it into a product line.

Now this is not always true. There have been a very few times when they just put a different speed on it, or so people tend to think. In those cases people bought the cheaper one and overclocked it.

at the bottom of the Chinese e-commerce site, it simply says it’s a wish-list.

THAT sounds realistic – in contrast to the nonsense from the Chinese website…

Yay, if it’s a DX then with 24MP then it will shut all those idiotic megapixel chasers ‘mouth off!

24MP on APS is beyond lens resolution – so pointless. Its bullshit.

This must be a joke…come on…24 mp on DX? 3.5 inch touch screen?

24 PM sensor? For what? DX or FX? I dont belive the D400 comes with a 24Mp Chip…

I have to say, this “I have to pick right or wrong, win points, get awards” is obviously a bad translation from Chinese to English by Google Translation. The correct meaning of that text in the origional website is to allow readers to pickup the mistakes made by the website editors so they can improve their accuracy and quality. And once a reader found a mistake and corrected it, the reader could win points or awards from the website. It’s a good QC strategy.

I read this webpage two days ago. However, I do not think this specs are CORRECT. I think they are too obvious fake ones. And now, the origional page was deleted from the website.

Well put ken rocky.
Nikon needs to work on more lenses, like a f/4 line.
