The New Df, Nikon's Wet Dream?

Wet Dream? In this respect, after all the excitements and climaxes; Nikon might discover their euphoria was just a dream :(


The new Nikon Df has created excitement where ever it was launched, but after the initial euphoria subsides; how many photographers will plonk down their hard earned cash  to own this retro wonder?

Who is Nikon targetting this full frame machine anyway?

One reviewer reckoned the huge population of over-60 photographers will shake with excitement, finally; a DIGITAL SLR with shutter speeds and ISO DIALS... just like the good old days of FM and FA!  We will feel like, we came home!

YEAH RIGHT!

Nikon Df Arrives, Fanboys Rejoice!

So the much anticipated Nikon Df  is officially announced today, however; the excitement and thunder were dampened by Amazon's accidentally (or maybe not) published the Nikon Df sales page in their site for a short while before it was taken down!

I am not going to waste my breath telling you what Nikon Df is, you can Google it yourself and go over the 66,100,000 results ;)

According to Nikon...

As digital camera technology has evolved, so has the way we control our cameras. Mechanical dials have given way to buttons, menu systems and LCD displays. But what if we could blend the elegant, simplistic control and styling of classic Nikon film cameras like the F, F3 and FM/FE series with the advanced technology of Nikon's exceptional new D-SLRs?
