The photos here show an extended battery module and a new movie mode / live view switch on the lower right next to the viewfinder (sort of like the D7000).

Rumoured Nikon D800 specs emerge

Rumoured Nikon D800 specs emerge

Posted on Oct 04, 2011 by MG1

Filed in: CamerasNikonD800

New rumours about the impending Nikon D800 have emerged, suggesting a 36 megapixel sensor, 4 fps continuous shooting and Full HD video in 30p.
Many people had expected a Nikon D800 to emerge as early as February or March this year, but it is thought that the earthquake and tsunami in Japan pushed back the release date to autumn. A report published in May suggested that Nikon's Sendai plant had fallen behind a previous summer deadline for the D700 replacement.
Further fuel was poured on the rumours fire as a French D800 user manual 'Obtenez le maximum du Nikon D800' (or 'Get the most out of your Nikon D800') by Bernard Rome appeared on the Amazon France website.
