Correction: Nikon D4 ISO range will be 100-12800

I have to make a correction to the Nikon D4 specs: the ISO sensitivity range of the D4 will be 100-12,800 and not 100-102,400 as initially reported. Sorry about that, it got lost in the translation! The ISO range will still be expandable to 50 and 204,800. For comparison, the Nikon D3s has ISO range of 200 – 12,800, expandable to […]

Contrary to my initial guess, the latest intel suggests that the Nikon D4 will start shipping at the end of January 2012! Of course availability will be limited for months if not years.

This is it for 2011, something big is coming in January 2012

Nikon is done with the new products announcements for 2011. Something really big is coming in January 2012 – Nikon has bought space for a LOT of ads in big photography magazines for January 2012. I know they use to advertise a lot, but in this case, the extremely high amount of ads next month […]

Three possible scenarios for the Nikon D800 and other rumblings

I basically see three scenarios for what is currently going on with the D800: The D800 is really delayed because of the floods. If that’s the case, Nikon could have announced the beast and then come up later and say that the camera is delayed, just like Sony did. Nobody would have complained. Canon’s 1Dx […]
