Is the Nikon D3x in the Building?
The Wired gadget blog is killing it today with announcements (and instructions) for rad camera hacks and news of a possible D3x release in the works, after sleuths found snippets of new code in the D3 firmware update pointing to a 24.4 megapixel version of the camera. From the forum stream:
The real reason [that snippets for future models are showing up in the update] is almost certainly that there are some D3 bodies out there with the new sensor being tested.
This is the most exciting news to me; I like thinking about the surreptitious camera testers skulking around the country, D3x in hand. Who gets to be that guy?! It’s like finding the golden ticket and swimming in a sea of chocolate. Sign me up, Nikon.
Hey! If you are a secret tester, write to us. We’ll keep your identity secret, promise.
I’m a Canon user but I can’t wait for Nikon to get even or pull ahead of the race. competition is a very very good thing.
