J-Talk > 亂語胡言

Was having tea with a colleague just now, he is a fellow Nikonian with a nice D200 body who thinks that the Nikkor AF-S 18-200mm VR is the best lens Nikon ever made.

Anyway, I told him about my plans to upgrade but am worried about the possibilities of Nikon’s rumoured Fullframe DSLR releasing in the near future.

“I bet with you,” he interjected me, “it won’t come out this year, next year, maybe.”

Next year? does he know something I don’t?

Here’s something that contradicts his observation:

So saturday was camera rep day at my local (and great) camera store and when I got a chance to talk to my nikon rep, the first question out my lips where “When is the full frame nikon coming out?” Her words: “This year will be a VERY good year for you if thats what your waiting for. I can’t say anything, but don’t upgrade your body yet.”

Though I know everyone knows a nikon full frame dSLR is coming out, now there is offical word from Nikon themselves that its coming out here fairly shortly. When I asked her when this year she couldn’t say, couldn’t tell if its a “I don’t know” or a “Its a secret” kind of answer.

In other news, in the next few weeks Nikon will be coming out with a new capture program that from what I hear will have some nice features. Like being able to adjust very small sections of colors or ojbects. As she said, it will be able to replace all your photoshop tasks. For that comment I scoffed at her, but still, we’ll see very shortly.
