I do not want to give you any false hopes, but those are the rumored specifications of a new Nikon DX DSLR camera (could be called D7200, D9300 or maybe a completely new name) I received recently from a new source:

  • New 24.7MP sensor from Sony
  • EXPEED 4b processor
  • Nikon Advanced Multi-CAM 3600DX autofocus sensor module with TTL phase detection, fine-tuning, 72 focus points (including 39 cross-type sensors; f/10 supported by 39 sensors)
  • ISO: 100-12,600 (expandable to 50-51,200)
  • Shutter speed 30-1/8000
  • 1.3x crop mode
  • 8 fps; 10 fps with external grip
  • Video: full HD (1080p) – 120FPS, no 4K
  • Similar in shape to the Nikon D810
  • Large viewfinder with 100% coverage

[NR] probability ratings for now: 30% (new source).
