nikon says green tint is normal, and cannot claim warranty.
AF issues they working on it.

wAIT OR gRAB?

dEAL OR NO deAL?

The AF issue could be hardware or if lucky just a firmware upgrade... if its hardware its going to be really troublesome.

Stop poisoning me.....

I own the 16-35 too
previously wanna get the 24 1.4g with the D800
but will get the 28 1.8g instead now
the primes are better for street shooting


thus far have yet to hear any AF issue from the D800E
most probably it has been solved by Nikon, hopefully
it is no coincidence that there are no shipments of D800 for the past 2.5 weeks, I'm thinking they are sorting out the AF issue before the next shipment
even u got the cash there aren't many D800 around now, so you can only wait

I was testing friend's D800 at ISO3200... its pretty good actually... better than what I expected! Damn poison.

I can't help but as a Nikon fanboy, D800 smokes the 5d mk3 according to DxOmark Lab, LOL

Hahaha! And the 'ISO' rating is better than the 5D3. Must be the way it is measured giving D800 the edge.

Lets go out shoot shoot while waiting for stock.

the way they measure, it's scale down to 8MP, for all the cameras

Added on April 19, 2012, 9:50 pmwhat a way from Nikon to shut the mouth of those who whine, rant and complain that Nikon is stupid, dumb, idiot, clueless to released a 36MP

well, best sensor ever!!!! hahahahaha

Aiya, sure dapao 5D3 then LOL. Dapao even the D4.

well, if u scale the 22mp 5d mk3 up to 36mp also still dapao!
the fairest way to compare is to downscale it to 8mp

28mm 1.8G is quite cheap for N lens, finally nikon made the most affordable N lens in the market

What's the advise for getting a photo printer, use will be mainly for work/client/presentation, max i'd print would be an A3 size but unlikely it will be on a routine basis. budget <rm1k

I'd buy a Nikon if there was one.......

I prefer it to be compared at 22MP though...

Swt as it turns out my drybox analog meter is really off. I used a microcontroller and a temp/humidity sensor (took me all afternoon to code it) and it reads nearly 32% difference from the Analog meter.


when its 26% humidity on digital, on analog its nearly 58%. So now im lowering the fan speed and try to raise the humidity a bit.. 26% is too dry right? Will crack the rubbery nikons away...

On the down side is that the analog meter cannot be tweaked or adjusted. So I guess I'll go out and buy a digital one and replace the analog one.

it would most probably look the same up to iso3200 at 22mp
funny thing is canonrumors ppl are all in denial mode
hahahah and to have someone as the admin of the site saying the results are fake
canon ppl should come up with another website for camera testing and include factors like camera availability, that way they could trump Nikon like no tomorrow!

Hahaha! Availability upon launch, D800 0/10 5D3 10/10!

but nikon can come up another that includes timely released for camera
canon 2/10 Nikon 8/10
hahahaha 1DX in 2046???
