It has been six months since the last Nikon announcement, so I was very excited for something new from Nikon. No surprises tonight as I'm a religious follower of Nikon Rumors. New camera body is the D3100. It's an entry level camera with 14 MP, continuous AF in video mode, 1080p video, 11 point AF, and more. The biggest feature in this camera is of course the 14 MP. Nikon has been milking their 12 MP bodies forever. This gives a very likely chance of the rumored 16MP count in the D90 replacement and D700 replacement. The 1080p will also mean 1080p in the rest of their new cameras. I don't shoot video very often, but I'll take 1080p over 720p anyday.
The new lens line-up are listed below. I'm a very happy camper for the new 85mm 1.4 update :)
- Nikkor AF-S DX 55-300 f/4.5-5.6 G ED VR
- Nikkor AF-S 85 f/1.4 G with Nano coating: 10 lens elements in 9 groups
- Nikkor AF-S 24-120 f/4 G ED VR with Nano coating
- Nikkor AF-S 28-300 f/3.5-5.6 G ED VR
