Interesting. What is the high street price (or internet price) likely to be?
I've checked the specs quickly and it says AF only works with AF-S or AF-I lenses as there's no AF drive motor on the camera. Does it mean they have to spend more on those lenses? (Sorry about my ignorance, I have no idea how much Nikon AF-S or AF-I lenses cost!)

I got sent an email about the new camera by Nikon.
Personally I think its a mistake. Its resolution is hampered by the need to place it in the hierarchy of models - its a marketing driven product I feel.
Hmmm. If peeps would prefer to obtain a used but not abused D70 this may be good for me. I am hoping Santa will authorise an upgrade. We'll see...

Its not exactly cheap!
A d50 costs <£380 now...
At a glance all I can see that is different to the d50 is a larger screen & prettier display.

It'll drop quickly from its rrp, prob 200-250 a body. It'll realy hurt the prosumer P&S end, considering what canon did with the 300d.
Then people will find they need lenses, expensive lenses, no macro, no short video clips, no live LCD picture display
