Kamera & Bild: D60 replacement expected

By [NR] admin | Published: November 21, 2008

From Kamera & Bild:

“It is also expected a successor to the Nikon D60 with 12 megapixels and screen viewfinder. So the same sensor technology as the D90. One question that arises is what such a camera should be named. D60-successor can not be called D70 or D80…”

Here is also another link to a online store in Australia that promises Nikon D3x to be in stock by December 31, 2008.

Nikon D3x @ JC Penney

By [NR] admin | Published: November 19, 2008

KR got a tip for a Nikon D3x sighting at the JC Penney (Mall of Louisiana in Baton Rouge). This is a joke, but I still called the portrait studio (yes, I am a sucker) and they had an interesting message on their voicemail – “we are now using a revolutionary new method of taking pictures with a handheld camera…blah blah” Call them up: 1-225-766-4410 and press option 7 – the person on the phone was able only to confirm that they are using Nikon and then she hang up on me before she could tell me the model number…lol
