entry level FX camera ?
It seems to me that something is still missing.
What do you think there will be in between the D7000 and the firmly rumored "D800" in the new (year 2011 - 2012) generation of cameras ?
My guess would be at least a D300s DX successor (maybe called "D400") for birding, sports and action, e.g. with a high frame rate and a large buffer.
But what about an entry level FX sensor based camera ?
So far we have only seen real entry level cameras in the DX line.
For how long will we have to keep on regarding FX as a new technology reserved for high end cameras ?
Do you think the D300s DX successor ("D400") will make the jump up into the FX league for the same reason ?
I wish we could have at least a short term 2012 roadmap, just to avoid making the wrong choice from the beginning of this new generation of cameras.
And I wish we will see an entry level FX camera with a full frame sensor crammed into a small, basic, retro design camera in a form factor like an F3 or FM3A :angel:
If Leica can cram all the necessary full frame parts into an M sized body, Nikon can as well, with or without an added pentaprism viewfinder.
