| Yes I have been watching these rumours fairly closely but have to admit that I see little value in an 'improved' D800 when many more people need/want a replace for the aged D300(s). D800vD810 feature comparison is here. http://cdn-4.nikon-cdn.com/en_INC/o/57qXCcC4VtbrorNNsWOsXvKoNmM/PDF/D810-D800-D800E_Comparison_Sheet_en.pdf I do think that Nikon seem to have lost their way at this point in time!

| I see little need to change my D800 that is still taking super pictures. Of course I agree about the need for a D400 DX Camera!

| I presume the optical low pass filter is still in place? I could see no info on this. Read the info with some care and find it very hard to see any major advantages to upgrade from my D800 or am I missing something? (How much will they be charging for one in UK?)

No it has been removed. http://www.dpreview.com/articles/3735622860/nikon-d810-what-you-need-to-know?slide=3 £2600 is what I heard. Cant see the need to upgrade my D800. There is only one feature I need/want which is the highlight exposure driven mode.

| What I would have like to have seen was of course the D400 but if not that then a D620 which had built-in wifi and GPS and a body with the 12 pin connector instead of the special connector.

| Looks like a model only new Nikon users will buy...hard to think many will sell an 800 or 800e just to get an 810. Tom

| Tom I think you are right but with no low pass filter I could just be interested but keep my D800 as spare body? I will wait and see reviews and try to get hands on at local dealer and take some pix with it.

| With out low pass filter is there any protection for the CMOS Chip and what is the story of cleaning it if and when needed? Perhaps those of you with D800Es could give us some info please?

| There is always a glass cover that is either an IR filter or some other filtration over the top of the Bayer layer then the sensor photosites.

| Looks good. If this had been around a few years ago I might still have been Nikon.

| Early reviews look very interesting. No major advances but much improved auto focus even in poor light sounds good. I can see nothing but advantage to removal of low pass filter there is no doubt from reviews and reports from D800E users test pix were sharper than D800. Good D800s still get very good 2nd hand prices so I may well upgrade?

| After 3 returns for shutter problems Nikon replaced my D600 with a new boxed D610. I took it to several shops, unopened, to get a price on going to a D810. The over $2200CDN for the upgrade didn't seem to be good value for me, no articulating LCD etc., so I'm keeping the D610.

| There is little wrong in my eyes with the D600/610. It has perfect size and balance and it has just the right number of MP. I do find the 36MP of the D800 to be too many for everyday use. It is just too detailed. The only thing I dont like is the lack of a 10 pin socket for accessories but the small USB-like connector offered does do the same it is just all my special accessories have the 10 pin connector.

It needs to be 10pin socket (female) to Nikon D610/D600/D5300/D5200/D3300/D3200/D3100/D5200/D90 connector (male).

| Well done Graham. Look forward to seeing a NEF example from you when you have had it a while. Currently I am stalking a 24-120 f4 AFS VR to give me some extra flexibility on some of my work.

| Hi JK I have a 120-24 f4 AF-S in maker's box a year old and hardly used. I would be happy to get £500 for it if you are interested? Let me know ASAP and I will hold it back for you. Otherwise will trade it in with some other kit when my D810 arrives in about a weeks time. We have just got back from Wales filming the Talyllyn Railway for our next Railway DVD/BluRay to be published in a few months time. Picture is Edward Thomas one of the stars of our film. We had super weather and I filmed some very dramatic footage on the footplate of the driver and fireman working. Not much room for 3 of us on the footplate and I stood in front of the fire-box with an out-side temp of 30C! A very interesting hour as we puffed up the dramatic little railway.
