June Features & Stuff

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 20, 2008, 12:18 AM




Hello everyone, hope you're having a great week.

I've busy with lots of stuff at the moment, some work related, some photography related. I sold the rights to one of my images this week for use on a CD cover and various promotional materials, and I'm also assembling a print portfolio for another project in Lisbon.
As usual we’re busy with stuff related to the Turismo Rural project...and I'm going through the process of selling my apartment. I'm a little sad, it's the first place I ever bought and owned on my own, and it was right next to the beach, but life moves on so it's time to sell it.

Finally, if any of you like new camera speculation, particularly new Nikon speculation, here's a link to "supposed" camera photos taken at the print shop of the promotional materials for the Nikon D700 (everyone thought it was going to be called the D10).

[link]

Is it real, or is it fake? That's up to you to decide.
Looks a lot like an F6 body with a full frame sensor.
"Only" 12mp!? Well, to be honest the difference between 12mp and 16mp is only actually around 650 pixels along the longest side, and how much can you do with 650 pixels?
Printing at 220 dpi, those extra pixels will give you around a 7cm bigger print…so really, how much does the amount of MP really matter?
It's the quality of those megapixels that count, not the quantity, and I'm much more interested in the clean, noise free images with the dynamic range of the 12mp D3 sensor than I am with being able to print 7cm bigger.

Rumours are for a July 1st announcement...but really, who apart from Nikon, actually knows ;-)

Fabulous features!! Hey.. one good thing about getting older is that your eyesight isn't as good so you don't need as good a sensor because you cant see the difference anyway =D heheheh

they need to put up something against the 5D... btw: 3:2 !!!
:iconandymumford:
Well it's been inevitable for a while now...but in a way I'm surprised because the D300 sells so well...considerably more than the 5D (although one is new and the other old).

I wonder what Canon will do though, will they go for more MP, or what? 2 years ago they were untouchable, now Nikon sell more dSLRS in Japan and the USA, so they've got to do something fast.

Oh and btw Mathias, I'm not Portuguese so the score doesn't mean anything to me. My team didn't even get to the championship, so I'm shouting for Holland.

I want to have text with you

Well, I'm not "completely" convinced.
There's no doubt that Nikon have got 2 FF cameras waiting to come out (the D3X and the smaller one, which is supposed to be shown here), but if this is actually it...who knows. Until this week everyone thought it would be called the D10, so the name is a bit of a surprise.
This one though won't have the Sony sensor, it's going to have the same 12mp sensor as the D3 (which is a Nikon sensor). The high MP Sony sensor will be in the D3X, but obviously with Nikon specified tweaks (Expeed instead of Bionz, 16 bit instead of 12 bit)...but it does seem that Nikon and Sony are looking at Canon's full frame dominance.
