Today was all about the new Leica products but I still have a quick update on the Nikon D600 – I can now raise the probability of the D600 release before Photokina to 80%. Note that some of the specs may still be inaccurate or incomplete.
Some new Nikon D600 specs in addition to what I reported two week ago (new specs are on top, marked in bold): 39 AF points (with an option of 11 AF points) 5 fps (same as the D700, the D800 has 4fps) 2 SD card slots with Eye-fi support Build-in retouching images functionality Built-in flash […]
