Okay now who leaks this info? laugh.gif

"Rear LCD: Exquisite 3.2," 921,000 pixels" --> not sure if this comes with a green tint...

"Nikon announced an optional Wi-Fi transmitter for the camera. The WU-XX clips into the USB socket of the D600 and allows you to broadcast its images to smartphones and tablets running a Nikon app. The unit allows the camera's live view output to be streamed to the smart device and allows images to be shot remotely. The WU-XX immediately transfers photos and also allows you to upload them to social networks to share with friends and family" --> I like this one!

focus speed is very relevant cos thats one of the key selling points of a nikon dslr... speed and accuracy...  brows.gif  we all want better faster stronger ba.. fast lens + fast body is a requirement for me... the more the focus points the merrier... id be quite disappointed if less than 51 points  blush.gif cos its priced higher than my d300 which already have 51 af points
*
And the AF coverage probably not as good as D700 due to lesser points. Imagine 39 points on FF.. hmm...

But then again, most of the time I just shoot with middle AF point tongue.gif, but aiya for sports when I'm doing AF-C then its pretty critical.

i juz got quoted RM6580 for D600 body laugh.gif

D600 - RM6580
D800 - RM9500

I like D800 more... but the green tint on the LCD is so... sad.gif Waiting to see if D600 is plagued by that as well or not.

D600 versus D800: Specification highlights

24.3MP Full-frame CMOS sensor (compared to 36.3MP CMOS)
10.5MP DX-format crop mode (compared to 15.3MP)
39-point AF system with 9 cross-type AF points (compared to 51-points, with 15 cross-type)
No AF micro-adjust function (D800 allows micro-adjustment in +/-20-step increments)
Autofocus sensitivity down to -1EV (compared to -2EV)
Maximum 5.5fps continuous shooting in FX mode (compared to 4fps in FX mode)
2,016-pixel RGB TTL exposure metering sensor (compared to 91,000 pixels)
2x SD slots (compared to CF+SD)
No 'Power Aperture' aperture control during movie shooting (offered by D800 using Fn + Preview buttons)
Shutter rated to 150,000 cycles (compared to 200,000 cycles)
Magnesium-alloy top and rear, polycarbonate front-plate (D800 is full mag-alloy except flash housing)
USB 2.0 interface (compared to USB 3.0)

Yeap... as far as I know Canon doesn't have this capability even on their 1DX yet. Good for those bird shooters.

600mm f/4 becomes 1200mm f/8 biggrin.gif

85 1.4g or 1.8g? haiz decisions decisions. i want to try 1.8g oso donno where to go, asyik habis only

Question is, do you need the f/1.4 aperture? If yes then is clear, it not just grab the f/1.8 and save up for others.

While everybody is looking at D600... I'm kinda itchy with a D800 now laugh.gif , but the price has not dropped yet... I'm thinking when the D600 starts selling the D800 sales would be affected more or less and Nikon starting to cut a little for it?

Nikon FF line up,

D600 - RM6580

D700 - RM6300 (discontinued)

D800 - RM9400

D800E - ???

D4 - ???

Putting aside D800E and D4, consumer choice would be a D600 or a D800 in the future... and I guess for most hobbyist will be going for D600 except some for the D800? So far I know the D800 price was holding up at RM9800 since launch, then was about RM9500 a while later, then now RM9400 also can get o_O But the first price slash not yet come in... probably cause Nikon haven't bundle anything for each unit of D800 the shop orders laugh.gif

Saw Nikon KLCC got 2 D600 there but did not ask that guy for trying  tongue.gif

Maybe who is interested can go play see see.

The camera is small, more or less like a D7000, not much diff
*
Being a small body has its advantage, perfect for travel and more lightweight biggrin.gif but still pack a FF sensor inside.

QUOTE(MrAkay @ Sep 17 2012, 02:31 AM)
hey guys question, has anyone used both the 85 1.4g and 1.4d? got alot of difference ke? i google edi, just wanna hear your opinions jugak
*
I use a 85mm f/1.4D way before I got my 85mm f/1.4G, basically I didn't manage to do a side by side comparison. But my main observation is the 85mm f/1.4G is better in terms of focusing, the f/1.4D hunts more in low light and not as accurate as the f/1.4G, just what I feel based on my short usage on the f/1.4D.

Optics wise, I seen people doing side by side comparison. The f/1.4G basically looks 'sharper' (or maybe it is sharper) due to better contrast, less CA too! And maybe because hit rate is higher thanks to the AF-S.
