Nikon will soon announce the D3200 DSLR camera which will replace the current D3100 ($549). The expected specs are:

• 24 MP sensor
• 11 AF points
• 4 fps
• ISO range: 100-6400, with hi-ISO of 12800
• Improved video functionality
• The Nikon D3200 will have some kind of a Wi-Fi connection that is supposed to offer few very interesting new features
• Announcement in April, 2012

Those specs basically confirmed my initial D3200 report from last month.

In addition to the D4 and D800, Nikon is expected to announce 3 more DSLR cameras in 2012. I understand that most of you are interested in the D300s replacement – at that point I do not have any reliable information worth sharing. I think it’s safe to assume that the D400 (or whatever the name might be) will have a 24MP DX-format sensor. There is also a possibility for two different models – one with an anti-aliasing (AA) filter and one without (just like the D800/D800E).

I am still not sure if some of the expected Nikkor lenses (18-300mm f/3.5-5.6, 16-85mm f/4 and the full frame 28mm f/1.8) will be announced together with the D3200 next month.

Stay tuned for more details.
