When I see how much fuss and chaos this roadmap actually causes, I can imagine it feels TOTALLY worth the trouble to make a thorough fake of this stuff!

Quite right admin – you’re just doing your job. This is why we come to the site in the first place. Sure it might not be true, but then again it might be. It’s a rumour and before anyone forgets THAT’S THE POINT OF THIS WEBSITE.
Whether it’s true or not if NR Admin didn’t pick up on this then he would have dropped the ball in my opinion. Besides even if it’s not true it’s fun to speculate on these imaginery products – our discussions might just inspire someone at Nikon R&D – you never know!

ha ha ha! That’s a good one – approx85% of the “photogs” at a known photo page dp…… could have use of that function..

Too many inconsistencies. For example a D300 that weighs 925 grams but a D300s coming in at 795 grams – a 14% reduction – doubt it…

NTTA is a wholly owned subsidiary of NTT, if I remember correctly. However, don’t take the IP address info as proof of someone from Japan being involved with this leak. NTTA provides colocation, managed hosting, and whole caged environments (if you can afford it).

The NTTA IP address could simply be a proxy.

As Veruca Salt might say:

I want the ‘Pet portrait’ advanced scene mode — see the D3000 specs — and I want it now!

it’s called freedom of speech – I am not a lawyer, but you cannot get in trouble for something like that, unless is real

Can Nikon criminalize the fiction in the discussion? I am not in any relation to Nikon, but I am ver affraid Nikon can criminalize the fiction, in which creation I participated, but other man posted it to the world. For instance DX 60-95mm f/2 is my dreamed portrait lens – composition zoom – this lens thinked me.

this “anonymous” post is mine, I forgot to write my user information

- NikonRumor’s Admin is a good person to trust on, and sending confidential information via anonymous email using anonymous service to him could be a better way than using a forum that register the IP and partially shows it to everyone.

- And I want to go back about what I said in previous post. (I just was very interested to know if it is real)
Why? because if the info is true, I wouldn’t like someone to be caught for taking the risk.

If it is a joke, then….. sooner or later we’ll know.

But the anonymity of people who take the risk to share confidential things is over anything else.

If it is true maybe it was well done to keep its identity confidential and anonymous, more than we can think, despite it doesn’t look much like that.
That is something we can’t really know so far.

Anyway, I feel that so large report leaked is a very weird thing, never happened before, and not very plausible, but who knows….

and no reason to post using different names – this just raises the suspicion of the leaked roadmap, if it is a joke, why do you care so much?

Bibliographic postings about forthcoming books mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!

I used to be in that business. Publishers “think” they might publish something and send a listing to Books In Print and its equivalents around the world as a “Forthcoming Book”. If they don’t publish it, they declare it cancelled later. It means nothing.

ok, we got the point – no reason to spam this blog with the same comment over and over, please

HOW TO NOT SQUASH A RUMOR

Everyone’s heard by now that someone posted a “leaked Nikon Roadmap for 2009-2010″. It’s not clear if it’s really true, but one of the strongest reasons to believe in its truth is the over-the-top efforts of one individual (cough cough Nikon spin control?) to discredit the leaked info. Check this out:

Someone is going to a lot of extremely focused trouble to try to squash the rumor…

I don’t think it is true. Why to step to 61 AF points from 51??
double exp??? dNEF ???? if it is not a ready High DR JPEG it needs procesing. If we do procesing we can do the same thing from bracketing….

BUT ANYWAY.. LET’S HELP NIKON SEE WHAT WOULD WE APPRECIATE FROM THE LIST.
