No..I don’t. So that’s a big panoramic made up of tons of individual images. So what? It’s just a technical feat — it’s not the least bit aesthetically appealing. Where is the art in that photo? It’s only slightly more appealing than a super high-resolution photo of a brick wall.

Some of the best classic photographs ever taken, whether by Steichen, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Ansel Adams, Edward Curtis, Berenice Abbot, Diane Arbus, Eugene Atget, etc, etc, are not necessarily super sharp photos. That’s not what makes the image.

Stop pixel peeping and concentrate instead on form and light and telling a story. That’s what photography is supposed to be about.

Arne, I will continue to report on this campaign – how can I stop when we don’t even know what is this about?

Nothing Carlos, not a word. This makes me believe that it will be a Coolpix camera.

Fast forward 50 years from now … 26 gigpixels ! that’s it, if Nikon does come out with a 30 gigapixel body this year I’m getting a Canon!

I agree with you. I hear that the ISO rating of the campaign is just a smidge better than that of Canon’s T2i. Olympus finished up their February “campaign,” which was also a week or two long, with a brand new — get this — web site branded to the micro four thirds. Wow, I was really afraid they might actually release a camera. Thank god it was only a web site. The buzz and rumour about an actual product was tremendous. Needless to say, I’ve crossed Olympus off my list.

The real question here is this: Are you into marketing campaigns or into actual new products. In other words: Nikon, wasting our time.

The way the ad campaign is being conducted suggests to me it is not a mid or upper level DSLR. It does nothing for someone that needs to plan a purchase or upgrade. If it is a serious DSLR, the camera will remain long after the ads are forgotten. It needs to stand on its own merits, not a blitzy ad series.

But it may prove me totally wrong, as I got tired of the waiting game and bought a used D90 and lens.

Wow I never knew I could care so less about something Nikon-related!

2nd – except that I enjoy pure speculation just as much as correct release news, as long as you tell us you’re just guessing (which you do a good job with).
