If you want fastest FPS, best noise performer, do you buy a D3X?

Nikon Rumors also has source saying D3s and D700 replacement to be announced on 24th August... and... and... made in Malaysia?

It still ships back to Japan for QC (hopefully) and packaging before distributing to other countries. Good example, Inter processor. Unless factory sneak-out-items la... that also if Nikon doing R&D in Malaysia which I doubt.
Electronics is different. Everybody can do.

With the DSLR, there are still a lot of mechanical parts involved. That is what I'm more worried.

made in thailand, better?

At least they have much more experience than us. They started producing low end DSLRs for Nikon 6 years ago.

I dont see what's all the fuss about made in what country, its the QC that counts.
We are all too familiar that QC here and QC in Japan are two different things no matter what they say. We are talking about mechanical shutter assembly. Not sensors which I'm confident we should be fine.

EDIT : also, price for SB900 dropped to RM1400..
Where is this?
QUOTE(vearn27 @ Aug 3 2011, 09:17 AM)
Any chances of seeing refreshed model or replacement for SB-900? What do you guys think?
The SB-800 has a lifespan of 5 years before SB-900 replaced it in 2008. The SB-900 still has some life in it.
