Board index ‹ Equipment ‹ Digital Cameras ‹ WTG NIKON!!! the new D3 and D300
An interesting trivia note: The D3 is being introduced eight years after the ground-breaking D1 professional digital SLR. In 1999, a time when digital photography was in its infancy, the Nikon D1 cost a whopping $18,000. ... The D300 is also expected to ship in November; Nikon estimates its price to be at about $1800.

Hopefully the noise is not 15% higher, as the current 10 MP crop cameras have too much noise.

Larger sensor should help alleviate noise at the outset, hopefully they've also improved the image processing (not that it was BAD before).

Anyway, for someone like me who's thinking of changing gears this year, GREAT news.

from $18,000 to $1800, this should be written into my Economics textbook!
