I am a Canadian….and not from Quebec! They lost their french accents and french grammar centuries ago, when they settled in Upper Canada and were colonized by the British. I would not count on Quebec french or Quebec english for any translation. They can neither speak or translate either language correctly! I suggest that we all go with the GOOGLE translation! hehehe!!!

Funny how this camera was suspected over a year ago, and still not announcement. Now NikonRumors.com is saying spring of 2011.

Anyone know if they held back the camera from production in order to pack it with more features, or if people just got the date wrong? Either way, Based on the advances in the D7000, I’m sure the D800 will be a much anticipated, and eagerly sought after product.

Saving my dollars….

Ha! I’m not French or do I know any French and I say it translates to, “which is not just a rumour” because I want it to ;-)

Yucckkkks ! The above picture is ugly. I own D2X and cannot imagine how you can grip comfortably with that kind of vertical grip profile! The front portion of the vertical grip is just plain un-gripable !!

The exact translation, sorry for somebody else, is that “it’s just a rumor”. Otherwise it would be worded “qui n’est pas SEULEMENT un rumeur”

Well, I’m not French, and I haven’t had French since high school, but I read that phrase as… ‘which is not BUT a rumor’

in other words, ‘is nothing more than a rumor’

fwiw

Many are waiting for the Nikon D700 REPLACEMENT. The Canon Mark 5DII capabilities and price must be countered by Nikon! We care about what the French and all the rest of the world thinks. 1080 video can be really amazing. I own movie cameras. I have also owned some amazing high end still film cameras. Yet looking back on my images…some of the best shots were taken with Nikons. Big format might look good on a wall sized prints. I ran out of walls for that many years ago. I can walk into large photo labs and airports and see some of my photos….but for many today it matters how they look on a 40 to 55 inch HDTV screen, or a page in a pro photo book. Some of the world’s best looking images ever taken were taken on 35mm and would look just as great shot on a Nikon D700, D90, or hopefully the D700 replacement.
