Dream come true
OMG. I thought it would never happen, but it did. According to my previous post, this could never be possible, but Nikon has done it. Nikon has just announced the new full frame D3 with the FX format sensor and its little brother the D300! The D3 is set for a $5000 retail price with ISO sensitivities up to 25,600 thanks to its huge photosites! But the D300 is more in my range at $1800 with most of the same features including the new CAM3500 style autofocus module…drool.
Behold, the new Nikon D300 with optional but sexy vertical grip:
Notable features I’ve been waiting for in a single camera:
- 12.3 MP
- Pro level autofocus with calibration
- Self-cleaning sensor
- CMOS sensor with up to 6400 ISO
- 6 FPS up to 8 FPS with grip
- 3″ VGA LCD
- Live view with phase or contrast focusing
- Active D-lighting
- New metal vertical grip
- Moisture seals
- Big viewfinder
- And many more!
The D3 and D300 are both set for release in November 2007.
