Nikon D7000 Rumor: Fake D7000 Picture

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 07:00:00 +0100

NR has posted a picture of a D7000, originally from a fotofabrikas post way back in May. The picture appears to be a Nikon D90 with "D7000" photoshopped on, and a different shutter release added (black, not shiny, detail around the shutter release is a little different from the D90).

Given this dates back several months and the similarities to the D90, we'd be amazed if this wasn't a fake. See source link below for picture.

Nikon D700s Rumor: No D700s but 16Mp D800

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

DigitalRev claims one of their sources says Nikon is going to skip the D700s, so they can make a bigger impact with a 16mp D800 (with the same specs as the D3s other than megapixels).

The go on to list specs including ISO 102,400 and 1080p video, and claim it will be announced by the end of this year.

The D3s was a big step in terms of noise performance. This proposed D800 would be another big step (keeping the same noise levels but with the much smaller photosites needed for a 16mp sensor). While (barely) within the realms of possibility, we'd be surprised if a D800 with these specs was announced before the end of the year.

Nikon D700s Rumor: New D700 Kit

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

According to Nikon Direct, the Nikon D700 will soon be sold with as a kit with the newly announced 28-300mm lens. While by no means conclusive proof, if Nikon are investing in new packaging and promotion of a new kit, this would imply that the D700 is likely to be a current camera for at least a few more weeks, if not months.

Nikon D7000 Rumor: D90 Replacement Will Be Called D7000

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

NR claims the D90 replacement will be called the D7000, but gives no further information.

However this makes perfect sense. As we speculated many months ago, if the D90 replacement was to be a tweaked version of the D90 based on a derivative of the same sensor (like the D300s and others), then the replacement would be called the D90s. However if it had a new sensor, it would be the D7000 (why? because the entire consumer line naming is changing to Dxxxx, and the higher-end bodies in a given line always begin with a '7': the D70 was the first 'advanced consumer' model in the consumer model, and the D700 was the first full frame prosumer model, so the name D7000 is the obvious choice for the next 'advanced-consumer' model).

Given the new D3100 appears to have a Nikon produced sensor (as opposed to a refined Sony sensor), it appears that Nikon may be producing their own sensors for all future models. That would eliminate the possibility of a D90s, and point instead to the next model being a D7000 instead.

Canon EOS 1Ds Mark IV Rumor: Thursday

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

NI is claiming a big UK dealer claims the Canon 1Ds Mark IV could be announced on Thursday.

The same source says the Nikon D4 is already in their system and expected 'shortly'. A D4 this year would be a major surprise, with summer 2011 being the expected date and with the current D3s still retaining the crown as 'low light king'.

Northlight is reporting they've heard the 60D line isn't actually dead, and a 60D will be coming, advancing the APS-C range (and allowing for a greater 7D to 7D Mk II gap). No hints on timing though.

Busted: Canon EOS 60D Rumor - Not Coming

Status:

According to a regular CR source: "There will be no 60D". No further details given.

With so much hype around a the mythical 60D, someone at Canon must be sitting there laughing hard. With the 7D Taking on the Nikon D300 and the T2i taking on the Nikon D90, then perhaps Canon doesn't see the need for something in between? As always, time will tell.

Busted: Canon EOS 60D Rumor - RAW Video

NI are pointing to the following comment made on a user forum:

"If you are looking at DSLR you should wait. I had a conversation with a Canon rep during the DGA meet last weekend. He advised me to sell my T1i before the second week of September. Apparently there will be a new one coming out with 24p and , possibly, RAW video out from Canon. Priced around $1500. S35 sensor and Eos mount for use with all Canon glass."

If real, this sounds like the 50D replacement.

Busted: Canon EOS 60D Rumor - More Specs

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Status:

This time from Canon Rumors, supposedly from someone that has seen a brochure:

sensor seems to be a tweaked version of the current 15MP sensor (better DR, better high ISO IQ, eliminated pattern banding at high ISO)
98%-coverage, 0.96x magnification VF
3��, 1150K-pixel, active-matrix, organic LED display
19-pt., all-cross type area AF ellipse (basically, the current 1-series AF point layout w/o the 26-pt. assist AF pts.)
1080p@30fps full HD video with full manual controls and contrast- detect AF, stereo audio inputs
7.4FPS@14-bit mode (CIPA-standard testing method)
new DiGIC V is more than 2x faster than current DiGICIV, enables onboard processing of all those DPP functions still not done in-camera with the current cams (i.e., lateral CA correction, geometric distortion correction, better highlight & shadow detail extraction, plus new �gDiffraction Elimination�h function: pixel-level contrast enhancement and sharpening to counteract aperture-related diffraction effects)
AE microadjustment; +/- 3 EV range with 1/6EV steps; separate saved corrections for Evaluative, CWA, Partial and Spot metering
new higher capacity, slightly higher-voltage (to drive the faster mechanicals & electrical readouts for the higher framerate), chipped Li-Polymer battery (LP-E7), with new, magnesium-alloy framed BG-E7 battery grip with AF-ON and mini-joystick selector buttons duplicated

CR also reports it still looks like it's due 12 months after the 50D release (so in a few months). Click the link below for more.

Busted: Canon EOS 60D Rumor - More on the 18 month cycle

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Status:

According to NI's trusted source, timing for the launch of the 60d is 'up for discussion' but internal pressures at Canon are to put it back on an 18 month cycle. This due to weaker overall demand and reduction in competitive pressure. The design is advanced and allows for a possible August/ September 2009 release but is 90+% likely to be delayed until January / February 2010.

This makes a lot of sense given the current economy (or lack thereof), however a lot will depend upon what Nikon, and to some extent Sony release in the mean time.

Canon EOS 70D Latest Rumors

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

We've added a new Rumor Center for the Canon EOS 70D, tracking and ranking all the latest rumors.

With the 60D announced on the 26th August, 2010, the Canon xxD line continues. At some point the 60D will be discontinued, and presuming there isn't a huge model-line shake-up, the most likely candidate for replacement will called the 70D. Cameras in Canons xxD series have lasted anywhere from 12 to 24 months, so that puts a potential 70D anywhere from summer 2011 to summer 2012. We'll track rumors here as they start to emerge.

Canon EOS 60D, 6 Lenses, 2 Teleconverters

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Today Canon has announced possibly the most anticipated and rumored camera ever, the 60D, as well as 6 new lenses and two teleconverters.

Highlights for the EOS 60D include an 18 megapixel sensor with base ISO range of 100-6,400 (extended range to ISO 12,800), a new 1 million dot tilt/swivel LCD, and full HD video (1080 in 24p, 25p or 30p). The max frame rate is a reasonable 5.3 f.p.s., and and it features a 9-point AF system. The camera should be available towards the end of September, with an M.S.R.P. of $1,099 (body only).

As for the lenses:

Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM - available January 2011, approx $1,400.
Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM - available Late October, approx $1,500.
Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM - available December, approx $7,000.
Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM - available December, approx $11,000.
Canon Extender EF 1.4x III - available December, approx $500.
Canon Extender EF 2x III - available December, approx $500.
500mm f4L IS II - prototype will be at Photokina, no word on pricing/availability.
600mm f4L IS II - prototype will be at Photokina, no word on pricing/availability.

Nikon is expected to announce the D90 replacement in the next few weeks (likely called the D7000), which should be priced about the same (the D90 was $999, rumors put the D7000 anywhere from $999 to $1,199), so these two cameras will be going pretty much head to head.

Confirmed: Nikon D3100 Rumor - Spec Leaked

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Status:

NikonRumors has posted details from the September edition of the German Photo Magazine "Foto Digital", which includes an article about the new Nikon D3100 and the four new lenses.

If accurate, the specs for the new camera are:

14 MP CMOS Sensor (23.2 x 15.5 mm)
Live View, 3 inch Display
100 - 12800 ISO
11 AF points
full HD Video (1920 x 1080)
price 650 �
new EXPEED2 processor
improved objects recognition for the AF control

Improvements over the current 11-point AF system will be welcomed by many, as will full HD video.

We are assuming that the ISO 100-12800 range is the extended range (i.e. ISO 100 is Lo 1.0, 12,800 is hi-2.0), so the base range will likely be ISO 200-3200.

U.S. Price should be about $599 to $650.

Busted: Nikon 85mm f1.4 AF-S Rumor - Has VR

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Status:

NR pointed briefly to a pbase photo from Michael Lammerse labeled "cropmode, 85mm f/2.2 VR ON"

The picture was removed shortly after NR posted the link.

Since no Nikon zooms go down to f2.2, and no 85mm primes have VR, the speculation is, that assuming the label wasn't a typo, this was taken with the rumored 85mm AF-S f1.4 lens complete with VR.

No explanation was given as to why he believed that, this lens has been rumored as "imminent" for years now, although Nikon has been slowly rolling out new f1.4 lenses over the past year or so (50mm and 24mm f1.4's so far - 35mm and 85mm f1.4's are the next logical candidates).

Nikon D3100 and Four New Lenses

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

The heavily rumored Nikon D3100 is now official, complete with 14mp sensor and focusing during 1080 video capture. This makes it both the most advanced DSLR video offering from Nikon, and the highest pixel density (meaning more pixels on target for telephoto users), despite being the bottom of the line camera effectively replacing the D3000.

It's still hampered by the slow 11-point AF system the D3000 had, but even so highlights how much the rest of the DX line needs updating (it out-specs the D5000, D90 and D300s on both megapixels and video).

As for the 4 new lenses, we have:

A new 85mm f1.4G (new optical design, AF-S focusing, nano coating, misses VR, but adds about $400 to street prices over the current at $1650). The current 85mm f1.4D is a lens I use a lot, and my only minor complaint is focusing speed when taking sports pictures in badly-lit gyms. For its main use as a portrait lens I'm personally very happy with my current results - this may be a lens I'd be interested in down the road if the focusing speed is noticeably improved.
An AF-S DX 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR, for 55-200mm users that want more reach. At $399.95 it is slightly cheaper than the excellent 70-300mm lens, and is presumably smaller since it works only with DX sensors (unlike the FX compatible 70-300mm). If it is up to the 70-300mm optically, this could be a very nice lens.
The AF-S 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR for FX users is roughly equivalent to the 18-200mm for DX users, so a good lens for people who don't want to change lenses. Will likely be popular with a lot of consumer D700 users, but any lens with that focal length range (almost 11x) is going to have a lot of compromises optically. M.S.R.P. is $1049.95.
Being a constant aperture 5x zoom, the AF-S 24-120mm f/4G ED VR should optically be a much better walk-around lens for FX users than the 28-300mm, plus the extra 4mm on the wide end make a huge difference for street photography. Pair this lens with the current Nikon 70-300mm lens and you should have a very capable and relatively light-weight setup. M.S.R.P. is $1299.95, but for a lot of D700 and D3 series users, this will become their primary lens.

Overall a good step for Nikon - the D3000 didn't exactly set the world alight when it was announced last year, but the D3100 looks to be a big step forward, and instantly becomes Nikon's most advanced DSLR video offering, and highest pixel density camera.

For DX users, the 55-300mm should be a very interesting and affordable lens.

For FX users, the 85mm f1.4G is a specialized lens, although the current lens is superb, it remains to be seen how many people will upgrade. The Nano-coated 24-120mm is effectively a must-have for any prosumer or pro that wants a lighter walk-around lens that performs. The 28-300mm is for the more consumer oriented FX user that doesn't like carrying extra lenses and doesn't mind the f5.6 maximum aperture at the long end.

Nikon D95 Rumor: D700 Noise Performance

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

According to NR, with a very high 80% probability, the D90 replacement will have a 16MP DX sensor (presumably the new Sony unit), same noise performance like the D700, full HD video, 8fps, new video AF and performance, and parts of the body will be aluminium.

So, comparing the new D90 to the D700, it will have more pixels, the same high ISO ability, and adds HD video. If true that will seriously decimate D700 sales, leaving the D700 for people that need better weather-sealing, the performance of the CAM3500 AF system, or really narrow depth of field when shooting wide open.

It also would all but eliminate the need for D300s, missing primarily the AF system and weatherproofing, but trouncing it elsewhere.

NR gives it an 80% probability, and given Nikon has shown what it can do with the D3s, then these specs are aggressive, but potentially (barely) within the realm of what might be possible. However a lot of D300s/D700 users won't be happy that a consumer grade Nikon outperforms them in several key areas, especially when you consider rumors are rife that neither the D700 or D300s will be upgraded until 2011. Still, Canon has a similar situation where the 5D Mark II outperforms the current 1Ds Mark III on a number of levels... we'll see.

Canon EOS 3D Rumor: Soon

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 07:00:00 +0100

In a low rated post on CR, someone has informed them that "A dream camera for any pro photographer and cinematographer that needs the ultimate image and movie quality in difficult light environment".

This sounds awfully similar to information posted on NorthLight Images, but with more details - same source perhaps?

Apparently the camera is in testing. It has a lower mp full frame Sensor which has been optimized for dynamic range. Allegedly it also supports Raw video and continuous focus on video mode.

Nikon D95 Rumor: 16mp 1080 video

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 07:00:00 +0100

According to NR, the D90 replacement will be called the D95, have a magnesium body (like the D300s), 16Mp sensor, 1080 video, 6 f.p.s., new 39 point AF system, and retail for $1199 (body only).

If true, this camera could decimate D300s sales (more Mp's, higher quality video, only slightly slower frame rate). The big jump in price is also a concern - the $1k price point is a big barrier for a lot of people, and the D90 and it's predecessors have always been high volume cameras.

Presumably the 16mp sensor is from the rumored upcoming Sony DSLR's.

Nikon D3100 Rumor: Now 14mp

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Earlier NR gave a 99% probability to a Nikon D3100 with a 10mp CMOS sensor, but they've now updated that to a 14Mp sensor.

They presumably based this change on the leaked spec's for the new Sony DSLR's that have either 14mp or 16mp sensors - Nikon often use derivatives of Sony sensors. No probability was given by them this time.

Nikon D3xs Rumor: May Not Happen

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Currently on his home page (July 26th archive if viewing at a later date), Thom Hogan claims Sony is considering dropping their FX sensor line for economic reasons. He extrapolates this into meaning there possibly won't be a D3xs sensor, based on the fact the the 24mp sensor is based on the the Sony design.

Our take:

First of all, while it is true Nikon and Sony work closely on some sensors, including the D3x sensor, the Nikon sensor is a much improved version of the Sony A900 sensor. Presumably this additional work was done by Nikon (and at this point they've already had 18 months to develop it further), so Sony dropping FX at this point should have minimal effect on a camera that should be out being field tested in the very near future, if not already.

Secondly is the broader implication - the future of FX if Sony can't make it profitable. Is there demand for FX? if you read internet forums, then it sounds like everyone wants FX. However if you look at sales numbers, 90%+ of Nikon's DSLR sales are D90 and lower, then a good proportion of the other 10% is the D300/D300s - so FX cameras currently represent around 5% (give or take a few points) of their total sales. It is 3 years since Nikon introduced the D3, their first Full Frame DSLR, so only 5% or so of unit sales isn't that impressive. Looking at Canon, their new pro sports camera, the 1D Mark IV, isn't full frame, having a 1.3x crop sensor. Is demand for an FX offering there? Absolutely from pro's and more wealthy hobbyists. But with the recent trend for smaller and lighter, combined with mirrorless and Canon's recent murmurings about an upcoming smaller DSLR, if anything the current trend appears to be going against FX, not towards it for the mass market.

Nikon D7000 Rumor: Video Issues

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 07:00:00 +0100

Continuing on our previous report (here), it appears the problems encountered in testing the 'new D90' were video related.

Given the D90 was Nikon's first video enabled DSLR, it makes sense that the replacement, two years later, would be an ideal platform to introduce their second generation video implementation, so from that perspective the information we've been given makes sense. Currently trying to find out more.

Nikon D3100 Rumor: In A Few Weeks

Steve@DentonImages.com (Steve Denton) — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 07:00:00 +0100

According to NR, the specs for the D3100 will be:

continuous AF in video mode/live view
new AF points configuration which should cover a very large portion of the viewfinder. Total of 11 or 12 AF points.
10 MP CMOS sensor
HD video: 1080p/24 and 720p 30/24
AVCHD video codec
3fps

According to NR availability will be in a few weeks, and a bold 99% probability. They also link to a picture that shows D3100 in the EXIF data.

Our take:

First of all, the D3000 has a 10mp CCD sensor, so a 10mp CMOS sensor that also supports live view means this is a new sensor previously unseen in a Nikon DSLR. Not impossible, but given Nikon's history of getting maximum value by reusing sensors multiple times this seems unusual, as does introducing a new 10mp sensor when just about all the competition is significantly beyond that (Canon's latest consumer models have all been 15mp+).

The other flag is the date in the EXIF file on the picture they link too has a date of early 2009. They point out that it's easy to edit EXIF - indeed it is, but it would be just as easy to change D3000 to D3100 in EXIF as it would the date. If the picture is real, a more likely explanation would be the user forgot to set the clock on the camera.

The D90 is also expected to be updated/replaced imminently, and if any Nikon is going to have 1080p video, we'd expect it to be introduced with that new model, not the very bottom of the line Nikon.

Overall, while this could possibly be the spec for the new entry level Nikon DSLR, there are some obvious potential red flags. Time will tell if their 99% probability rating pans out.
