I believe it's the same size as the D7000. Would be perfect if it uses the same vertical grip.Did anyone else notice the size difference between the 800 and 600. The 600 is considerably smaller in body size based on the link posted.

Roger, very interesting catch -- Alpina is a really old name for Sinar products. I doubt it's related, but good fodder for discussion and postulation.There is some speculation though that this is a new sensor Nikon developed with Alpina (?) rather than the sony .
The rumor is about Aptina, the company that manufactures the sensors for the Nikon 1 cameras.There is some speculation though that this is a new sensor Nikon developed with Alpina (?) rather than the sony .
Really I am just quoting from a thread over at FM under the Nikon forum heading . The poster indicated that Alpina (and I may have spelled it wrong ) developed the sensor for the J1/V1 .Roger, very interesting catch -- Alpina is a really old name for Sinar products.

The camera's processing being 16 bit doesn't mean much. That's an internal things, has been that way for years.Todd
The feature that caught my attention was “16bit processing” . The only DSLR that I can remember having 16bit was the DMR ...so I can only hope that Nikon is trying to hit its weakness in color fidelity . 24MP /16bit sounds about perfect for people pictures .
Well A D600 screwed on to that Tammy zoom will be almost the same over-all size as a D800 screwed on to that same lens.Did not notice but I welcome it. My D800 with that Tammy zoom I just got is kind of big . For PR stuff I would prefer smaller. I already decided on a D600 for my PR kit and as backup. It's a done deal, been waiting for this to be released as long as I can get a clean ISO 1600 and maybe 3200 than I'm screaming happy. I would expect it to be a lot like the D800 in functionality which would be very nice for a D800 user to have both. Also one high end body without the AA filter for high end work and AA filter for people stuff at lower Mpx sounds perfect for me and a good balance setup.
