For me, strictly as a backup camera, and fatter pixels, but i'm guessing the price will be much lower...Why would one opt for the D600 over the D800 for a mere $200?
If this is indeed the case, Nikon may have shot themselves in the foot.
I would hope that it would be no more than that, and perhaps even a little less. If they could manage to keep the list at just under $2,000. (say $1,995)then there would be a large market of photo enthusiasts who would spend about $1,000 less than the D800 for a camera that will do them justice for several years.I think it is actually 2100.00 US street price. Let's wait on further details but there math is kind of weird from what I read.
Framerate will likely be 5(maaaaaaaaaaaybe 6, but highly unlikely) FPS full frame, no higher in DX.High framerates and stellar high ISO performance could drive the pricing. Depending on what those are, I could be a buyer as high as $2500, doubtful I would be, but certainly could be. If framerates and ISO are on par with the D800, then I'm probably not a buyer even at $1500...
