  • Canon EOS 50D wish list

    In this beginning of the Summer, while many people are discussing about the arrival of the Nikon D700 (everybody seems pretty sure it will pop up this week), some are wondering whether the Canon EOS 40D will soon be replaced by a Canon EOS 50D. Nothing more than repeated wish lists in forums, but the…

  • Nikon D700 already in Germany

    Here it comes! The German photo magazine ProfiFoto is just out in the stands (with a little delay probably designed to ensure compliance with the Non-Disclosure Agreements -NDA- about the Nikon D700) with a this description of the new Nikon D700: Nikon D3 sensor: Full Frame, 12 MP Dust cleaning on the sensor 200-6400ISO From…

  • Price of the Alpha 900

    I have been asked by some people about the price of the upcoming Sony Alpha 900 flagship digital SLR camera. The problem is that there is no information filtering down from Sony.

    Why go Full Frame?

    With all this talk about existing Full-Frame photo cameras (Canon EOS 5D, Nikon D3) and about possibly upcoming new ones (Sony Alpha 900, Canon EOS 5D Mk II or some other similar name, etc.) many photographers happy with their existing digital equipment are wondering: “What’s all the fuss about?” And it’s a good question to…

  • Nikon D90

    While it is difficult to find any ground for these speculations, people keep repeating that Nikon is about to announce simultaneously a Nikon D700 high-end DSLR camera and a lower-end Nikon D90 to provide an able DSLR for most photographers. It seems that most of the original information comes from Thom Hogan’s web site and…

  • Nikon D700 confirmed (by Nikon)

    Surprisingly, the information collected about the upcoming Nikon D700 digital SLR camera seems to have been confirmed indirectly by several sources. French magazine Chasseur d’Image went to the extreme of reporting about it “as a rumour confirming the information they already have”. And a Nikon representative said that the manual pages that were used to…
