Uh, was the PC-E line not completely announced at once in 2007, with the new superteles? Just the release date may be announced during PMA.

Sounds more like a D5000x, I dont want a swivel screen like the D5000 in a D7000

I recommend you buy a 35mm Fuji disposable camera to replace the 5D-2 instead

D700 was previously reported as being out of stock at Walmart (although the “kit” was still available); now it is not available in ANY packaging…

I’m more interested in the “D7000″ too, just not optomistic that they are going to introduce a new DX sensor for it. The gimmicky stuff comes out in the low end cameras
D60 Sensor cleaning
D5000 Tilting LCD
D90 Video
The good stuff that effects IQ comes from the top and filters down.
I just don’t see them stealing the thunder of a new sensor in the D400 in 2011 and putting it in a D90 level body. My quess is that they’ll put the swivel screen and a small improvement in the video and a couple other gimmicks that won’t improve your pictures.

Now Low we covered this before remember. Tom is lammerse’s source and lammerse’s is Tom’s source. Tom tells you and you go tell Father Bob and he tells all of you that you’re wrong because he read the truth on Nikonrumors

PMA 2009 just a buttload of COOLPIXes
PMA 2008 the D60 was unveiled and a buttload of COOLPIXes
PMA 2007 the D40X was unveiled with a buttload of COOLPIXes

There is a better chance we are getting only new lenses!
2009 35mm 1.8,
2008 16-85mm, 60mm macro, and the 24mm PC-E
2007 55-200mm
2006 105mm 2.8

I’m just curious…. when was the last time Nikon released a DSLR for PMA?

That’s what I am saying They need not make a new 28-85, while they can update an existing formula

The 24-85 Nikon has is old. I’m also waiting for a newer version.

Niko, exactly my point – in “normal” times I do post rumors from dpreview, but now few weeks before the announcement everyone is out of the woods and I don’t mean only dpreview but many other forums/sites/blogs. This is the time where I slow down and wait for the final word, plus every potential product that could be released was already covered in previous discussions, patent applications, shots from copters, etc. I do not speculate, I publish info based on information I receive. All we need now is the final 99% confirmation on the final date and products and I do not have it yet. Remember the 300mm f/2.9 update? I got the info just few days before the announcement (and I did not believe it). I will say it again, be prepared for the scenario where no DSLR will be released for PMA.

Toes at the edge, waiting with tears of joy/sorrow on deck. D700s will produce tears of joy, anything else produce tears of sorrow… unless D700 price goes down, then tears of joy again.

More DX primes, and a D3000x

I know all of you Dpreivew readers have been following mlammerse’s “Japanese uncle told him” a 20mp D800 is coming in early Feb2010 but why exactly is everyone so sure his “Japanese uncle” is right? Just because his “uncle” has access to “retail” info doesn’t mean the info is correct.

It now seems that everyone and their mother has a “source” with info on a “new DSLR coming in early Feb” but no new concrete info has come out and we are only 12-13 days away from the Feb2-3rd date. Are you guys prepared for another “bad” year for Nikon at PMA if all we get are new COOLPIXes? I’m just saying I wouldn’t want any of you to jump off a bridge because there was no D700 replacement at PMA.

Nikon already has 24-85′s

Nikon will tell you, go to canon for a 200/2.8 prime, our zoom lens is more versatile than a prime lens and has approx same sharpness
