Nikon D5300(is it really that much more important than a pro Dx camera?)

Nikon's D5300 (http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/dslr/d5300/)

I'm not so sure the old D5200 needed such an urgent update really :confused:

Wherefore art thou D400?

And a few minutes later the seedy shadow stalking hacker types will have geo located the twitfaces and relieved them of their identities and probably their physical possessions.

I suppose I deserved that! :D

I did mean the NIKON D400, not the Pentax D500.
It's almost certain that the Pentax will probably have feature advantages over a D400 .. if one ever surfaces. So the K3 is more like a D500 competitor in reality.
That could be a reason for Nikon not releasing a D400 earlier .. maybe they knew of the K3's features and just delayed its release.

I wonder if Nikon is waiting for the 7dmk2 to come out before they make their announcement.

D5200 to D5300 seems a bit like Canon 650D > 700D ... I'm not sure why

I've just reconsidered my options and i'm going for the nikon D5300 18-140mm lens its a great camera better than the d5200 its got less features for less money so hope to do a write up on the nikon d5300 once bought

Cheers guys
