I was at BVE show in London last week and as it was a film and TV show there was little activity on the Nikon stand so I was able to have a good chat to them and asked about the D400? I was told they are going the 7000 route for DX and the D610 is the official upgrade for those who have a D300.

Don't quite understand their logic... that the upgrade for the pro DX body is a prosumer FX body? But as we have long suspected, the D400 will be launched shortly before hell freezes over.

I personally think it's an unashamed strategy to get people to buy expensive telephoto lens rather than get a 'free' leg up from DX.

Glad I didn't buy a D7100. ;-)

They have opened a hole that Canon have jumped in with the 7Dmk2, it's what I would be looking for in a D400 as the Nikon would have better DR.

Well if you want a DX camera as we have long suspected you have to go to the D7100/7200.
The D7100 that I handled recently was very good.

HI
I just read about the 7200 and for what it offers over the 7100 I am not even a little bit interested.
So far I am very happy with my 7100 and combined with the MB-D15 it is a nice sized and balanced unit
Besides I am sticking with tradition every time I buy a new camera a very short time later a new model comes out. So why change now



:lol:

I think the only real big difference between the D7100 and the D7200 is they have increased the frame buffer RAM which makes it acceptable for use by professional sports photographers.
There is a little better battery usage 1100 shots compared with 950.
Then there is the new thing of removing the AA filter as well but for all intents and purposes the camera is the same.

At least the reviewers will have it easy, just edit their D7100 work a bit.

Seems that the AA filter was removed for the D7100, as the DPreview states. 

" Add to that the fact that the D7100 has no OLPF filter and you'd expect nothing less than impressive performance on our resolution chart" 

Found on p15 of their review

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikon-d7100/15

If you don't need the larger buffer the D7100 will be a deal;~)
