Ok it's not really their fault, but that D800 seems like it's never gonna come out. Due to flooding of the Thailand factory apparently, announcements planned today have been postponed to...whenever.
Now I got a interesting piece of information from a Irish reseller who was originally invited to an announcement in the UK (very likely it was going to be a SLR announcement).
Well his "informed guess" is that the D700 will be maintained for 2 reasons:

Well his "informed guess" is that the D700 will be maintained for 2 reasons:
- to justify a high price for the D800
- because a D700S or something like that (basically the same + video, similar to the D300 / D300S change) could come up
That's all I got so far, so I'm thinking getting a FE2 as a complement to my FE, to allow 1/4000 shutter speed. Then, instead of wasting money on an expensive body, I might get the 50mm F1.2 AIS Nikkor...
Why? because the lens makes a bigger difference than the camera body, and you'll keep it forever so overall, it's always a better investment :)
