If my Nikon even looks at me funny I’m switching systems.

Thanks – this would confirm it’s Microvision inside if in fact they announce one (camera w/embedded projector). Can’t wait for next week!

Unless it’s the exact product and specs I’m looking for, no less and no more, I’m switching to some other system!

Unless it’s some impossibly high end product at the price of a kit lens, I’m switching to some other system!

If it’s $50 more than an arbitrary price I picked out (and I should know – after all I buy stuff) I’m switching to another system!

If it’s not the exact same product at the exact same price as some other system, I’m switching to another system!

If it’s DX, I’m switching to another system!

If it’s Coolpix, I’m switching to another system!

If it’s a zoom I’m switching to another system!

If it’s slower than f/2.8 I’m switching to another system!

Unless it’s an f/4.0 zoom I’m switching to another system!

If only those fools at Nikon would listen to us their products would all make sense!

I just can’t see anything Point and Shoot being “groundbreaking”. That is just me. I have nothing againt them, I have one in my truck at all times, just in case.

I think we will see a D700x or a D3s this year but I don’t think they would announce that a week after the D300s and D3000. That would steal their “thunder”.

I don’t know. I do remember reading that someone’s neighbor had been testing something for Nikon and told the neighbor that he was selling all the equipment he currently has so he can buy the new.

I don’t know. I guess we will have to wait till Tuesday.

Completely revised sensor? Something multi-layer, like the foveon?

I heard that will be the first DSLR to come out with a 1GigaPixel sensor. (96×64mm)

hehe, and reading through the google translation, at 10:24 it says the first camera with english menus. Wonder what language I have been using all these years in my camera
And that makes 76 posts wasted?

please it is about time for manual control. I was worried with the release of the d300s that they were going to make the manual control a distinguishing feature between d90/d5000 and the d300s luckily that hasn’t happened so far but my d90 needs manual video control. Please nikon this is the groundbreaking announcement I want.

I agree. They’re not going to release anything DSLR that will overshadow the D300s.

By: WoutK89

hehe, that would be nice, announcing the D300s, and one week later announce the manual functions while you have some coolpixes to announce at the same time

The only thing groundbreaking to me would be a D700x, 80-400mm replacement, or some wide primes.

And which nikon lens to use on MX format?

By: Jon Paul

With Vibration Reduction II, no doubt.

Dreams:
a) FX or DX video camera with interchangeable F-mount lenses.
b) DX compact with fast fixed focal length lens.
c) New line of interchangeable lens DX compacts based on a mirrorless design. (i.e. Nikon’s answer to micro 4/3)

These are guaranteed to not be announced.
