Quite a few have remarked that the recently announced Nikon D3x<\/a> appears to use the same sensor (Nikon say it isn’t identical, but differences are likely to be small) as the Sony Alpha 900, but while the Sony has a street price of around \u00a31600, the Nikon is expected later in the month for \u00a35,500.<\/p>\n

There are of course considerable differences in the camera specifications, but hardly it seems enough to account for anything like that price difference.<\/p>\n

Looking at the performance of the Sony Alpha 900,<\/a>\u00a0 it isn’t a camera that would greatly appeal to me. The Nikon D700 or the D3x have a lot more going for them with their better performance at high ISO.\u00a0 And for those of us who take a lot of pictures, those up to 50Mb RAW files would really eat up card and disk space.<\/p>\n

However I’m certainly not going back to an F2. The D300 is still doing pretty well.\u00a0 You can see more videos on the D3x on YouTube<\/em> – but most are very annoying. The best of a bad lot I’ve found so far is from What Digital Camera<\/a> magazine.<\/p>\n

But the review you really have to see is where the F\u00fchrer vents his spleen<\/a> when told the price of the D3x. “Makes me wonder why the hell I went digital, instad of stick to film like Stalin!<\/em>“<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
