Added on February 7, 2012, 10:57 pmI hate the ISO button on D700, it's too far for quick adjustment.
Sadly it's still there on D800.

heard that the d800e price same as d3s..dayum

I find the button position ok, probably because I'm used to it I usually change ISO without removing the DSLR from my eye.

have you try canon pro bodies ? Their ISO button is next to the top lcd panel, very easy to reach.

Yes, I have used 7D, 5Dmk2, 1Dmk4... and I'm not used to the layout at all... each time got to either ask my friend (the owner) or spend some time looking for it. Most of the time I get annoyed and return it to the owner.

Will be higher FPS if using lower MP?

Yup, without VC is much cheaper and the image quality is said to be slightly sharper.

As for your question on moving, it depends on you. For me, I need the f/2.8 constant aperture. So, 18-105 or 18-200 is useless to me, if it's variable aperture. If you shoot outdoor daytime a lot and don't really bother about the larger aperture, then the Tamron may be useless for you.

D800 and D7000 have same pixel pitch.
the official nikon sample images uses 14-24, 24-70 and 70-200.

nikon site getting overloaded now, but this guy mirrors them.

extensively use? you can't judge the layout is good or bad if you just use it temporary.
so far i find that there is pros and cons for both C and N body buttons layout.

latest news from my usual shop....

7.5k... my heart is itchy now

7.5k is not bad.
official set or grey import?

7.5K only? but i think it will need to be paired with some high end lenses as well!! hence total damage is omG!!

official set

if this is ur first FX body, yeap a 16-35 f4 VR UWA lens will set u back another 4k

if i can prove it is less than 8k, will u buy me one?
this shop is authorized nikon dealer... if tipu 2moro komtar will have fire alarm
(unless his FB account kena hacked la )

look at the 14-24 sample the detail is so frigging nice !
pairing in such high MP sensor is really making full use of the lens resolution !

interesting comparison,
for extra 300 usd, i think D800E is ideal

the 14-24 is a really nice lens. just be careful not to damage the front element.

any idea how much D800 would be? RM12k

D800 $2,999.95
D800E $3,299.95

*above is RRP

take that, multiply by exchange rate, then reduce the price a bit.

then it is not that expensive wat...is time go get one :/

Nikon thread has a new member jor hehehee

last fireworks for me on CGM~
