Impress magazine predicts a Nikon D800 styled body with the 16MP sensor from the D4 in 2013
The Japanese magazine Impress published their Nikon predictions for 2013 (they are doing this every year – see their 2012 predictions here):
- A new, D800 sized body, with the 16MP sensor from the D4. Nikon did that with the D3 and D700, but never released a camera with the improved sensor from the D3s. While this scenario is certainly possible, I still believe that Nikon is afraid of cannibalizing their D4 sales with such camera.
- New DX lenses (something I mentioned few months ago).
- Nikon D7000 replacement (see also this post). While 2012 was a FX year (three full frame DSLRs were announced), I think that 2013 will be the year of the DX format.
