muikabochi 208 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 That is the question. I was interested to seeing what the potential Nikon D400 would be like as a follow up to my D300, but I am tempted by the just announced D800. Waited for so long, so tempted. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 36 mega pixels!?! Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 32 actually but still pretty mad. I'm just impatient waiting it has been a fair few years and feel like an upgrade. Sensible me will take over soon once I take in all the info, maybe. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 356,000 yen with the new 28-300mm but FX and wowtastic spec. Over 70MB a pop for full res raw, so you'll need a fast computer and probably some big nas or other file server thingy to back em up. Buy it and I'll give you 10,000 yen for your old camera Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 Buy it and I'll give you 10,000 yen for your old camera Cheeky sod! I have played about with Raw but not fallen in love with it really. I still find myself using the jpgs most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 wait. No need forr that kinda spec if your camera is doing the necessary There are more and more smaller cameras that do the same, (non-DSLR, interchangeable lens systems. Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I am using Leica M9. Very small footprint, fits in the pocket. Luverly it is. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 I'm actually quite excited about this the more I read. I could still use the DX lenses I have and still get 15+MP. But still get onto FX. Hmmmmmmmmm. Link to post Share on other sites

@tokyo 14 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I could still use the DX lenses I have and still get 15+MP. But still get onto FX. Looks like a great way to make the move to FX. Isn't that DX mode more in terms of pixels than your current 300, muika? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 I have actually ordered one, as I make up my mind over the next months before it releases. If I decide I don't want it, I can always cancel. Link to post Share on other sites

miller 1 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 There doesn't seem to be much solid rumors about a possible D400 at all. I read somewhere someone saying that they thought that they might not be a D400 at all. Link to post Share on other sites
