* Kevlar/carbon fibre-composite shutter unit with 52 ms shutter lag, standard life cycle rating of 200,000 releases,

Wow!
That's 1/3 less than what it used to be for Nikon pro grade cameras - 300,000 releases.

 

[molested_cow]

7 frames per second in DX mode? Cool... that will work....

And that's already more than D700's 12mp! Very nice!

Ok you know what, now this is perhaps the D700 replacement + MORE!

The great thing about the D700 is the overall performance. It's an all-rounded camera, not extreme in any sense, but does very well in everything. Now that the D810 has improved its FPS at DX( not sure if this is already around in the D800), and that you can take RAW in S resolution, making it easier for people who aren't crazy about 36mp, plus all the new video, much better sensor, dynamic range, processor etc. Damn I've changed my mind! Now just need to wait one more year for the price to drop into the $2k range and may be I will suddenly betray my D700.

 

[TheLost]

I will pre-order one with my LCS (local camera store) when they open this morning... however, i don't have that 'giddy-new-gear-excitement' i normally get spending large amounts of money on toy's.

There are a lot of NEW things in this camera that could go wrong.. Shutter, Sensor... etc. Lets hope Nikon has a solid release with this one (much like the D7100).
