I expected that (Nov. '09)... since it seems like most Nikon D-SLRs have about a 2-year life cycle and the D300 has been out for about a year. Some speculation says the D400 will have a FX sensor and possibly cost $4300. That makes it more expensive than the D700 (and it should be the D800 rather than D400, if the speculation is true). Which doesn't make much sense to me. I hope Nikon doesn't get all screwy with their numbering scheme, like Canon's P&S Elph line. How is the SD950/990 a better model than the SD1100? That's like a Lexus GS with the 4.6 V8 being a GS340 or something.

I suspect the D400 will add the video features of the D90 but for the rest remain almost like the D300 with the possible addition of an SD slot.

I have been using the Sony DSC-V1 since it first came out in 2003, paid around $650 or so back then for the camera alone, no memory. I have three batteries and 4GB of memory for use on extended trips away from the PC. It is 5mp and allows manual control. For a decently small point and shoot it is great, havent seen anything smaller that offers the feature set that this has. I have been shooting some HDR shots lately with the Aperture Priority mode and a tripod as can been seen in my recent detailing write up. I will probably go SLR someday, but love the portability of the Sony DSC-V1.

Spot on Spider5! I hoped they wouldn't screw up the naming convention with "D400," if D300 successor has FX sensor, glad Nikon got the naming correct. It'll be the D300s. Hopefully, it'll be competitively priced, otherwise a D300 will be no brainer.

My girl shoots a Cannon Rebel XTi.
I have a Sony Cybershot DSC-T700.
She's jealous.
This is one badass point and shoot camera.
I'd love to have a "real" camera one day, though...

I have a Canon 1D MKII, 50D, and Xti
17-40 f4 L
24-70 f2.8 L
70-200 f2.8 IS L
85 f1.8
and a couple other kit lenses and various flashes.
if i had to do it all over, I would probably go nikon like photog said. the cameras user settings are much easier and the colors on the nikon seem to pop more, although I do like canons lens lineup. its one of those questions that can never truly be answered, canon or nikon. haha

Canon
Canon XTi with 55-200 zoom, 75-300 zoom, kit lens and 24-105 wide angle. I shoot Weddings, BDay Parties and all kinds of stuff personal and professional. The guys I have learned from and even showed a thing or two love Canon above all others. It is just a preference thing I guess.
