hi everyone in this thread,
think Nikon has launched it by themselves. They want to make Canons and Sonys make he, he, he – and then come out with fantastic 24 MP D800 with better noise than D3x, HD Video, dust removal and built-in flash plus a fantastic D400 with 14+MP, incredible low noise and full HD Video. I bet they will. You will see, they are gonna beat everything! It’s their last chance to take on Canon and Sony. It’s consumer electronics industry, products have a life cycle of two years not more.

It’s a fake. It has the same texture in comparison with the same photo of D300 (no s)

You are absolutely wright!
now you say that, I guess the last “0s” might come from a D70s..

To me it’s a fake.
Plus, I always wonder why we are never shown with a picture of the back side of the camera? If it were true, how could you explain the photographer would have taken only one picture of the front side without shooting another one of the back side in the meanwhile?

If there is going to be a D300s, wouldn’t they also release a D3s at the same time to include small fixes to that body too?

Nikon really need to high MP D700 version too (D700x). From reading various forums on peoples recent buying decisions, Nikon is loosing customers to the 5D MkII. As great as the D700 and D3X are, Nikon do not have a camera to match the 5D MkII for resolution at a similar price point and alot of people want this resolution at an semi-affordable price.

Leaving it another year or 18mths will be too late to remain competitive, they need to go for a killing blow now and not get all conservative and protectionist.

So no D3x for product shots?
That just sounds wrong..

The image has been (poorly) faked. Look at the bottom right hand corner where the rubber grip meet the plastic base of the camera. There’s like a 2-5 pixel overlap that looks like someone cloned something wrong. Definitely close to what the real thing looks like though.

i wonder if we’ll get auto focus video on the D300s??

How else could they separate it from the D90/D5000 MF?

After seeing so many clips from the D5000/D90, as purist as I am, I’m starting to lean towards getting video. . . I love my D200, but would like to capture those candid clips with my 35 1.8 prime. . .

you are correct, one of the shadows next to the locking button threw me off, It made me think the wheel was smaller (and therefore forward.

I do believe that the Nikon D300S is comming but IMHO this picture is photoshopped.
- Nikon would not allow such a crappy quality jpg to be released.
- Photo is 100% idential to the D300
- And there are weird encoding ‘spots’ arround the D300s logo that indicate manipulation.

if it’s fake, what will nikon announce soon? a p&s, and two dslr’s like d3000 and d700s? and a d400 in november? or a p&s with built-in projector together with d3000 on one date, and a d700s and a d300s on the other one? then nikon would have a sensational line-up: high-end p&s, d3000, d5000, d90, d300s, d700s, d3x, presuming that d300, d700 and d3 would be discontinued afterwards.

Just look at the aliasing along the edge of the body near the top LCD and the hump in front of the hotshoe. It’s a poorly modified picture of the D300 as already mentioned.

Fake.

Just look at the 2nd zero in the logo. It’s smeared and slightly larger than it should be. the ’30′ look like they belong together, and the ’0s’ were made together. But the two groups don’t match up.
