Nikon D600: A Cross Between the D800 and D7000 | News | Forum

Rumors of the Nikon D600 have really been heating up over the past several weeks in the lead up to Photokina 2012.  We've already seen leaked images of the D600.  And rumored specs indicate that the D600 will be a 24MP full frame camera.

The latest lot of size and feature comparisons suggest that the D600 will be more akin to the D7000 in size and ergonomics even though it will borrow feature upgrades from the D800 as the junior full frame DLSR in Nikon's lineup.

A German print magazine, Fotomagazin, has published a full-on article on what appears to be a recap of most of the expected features for the Nikon D600.  The magazine also put together the nice Photoshop job (seen above) of the D600 in what is probably going to be a close-to-final-form mockup.

Rumored prices have been in the $1500 to $1800 price range, which is a game changer for access to full frame cameras.  Even though you can now get a deeply discounted 5D Mark II for under $1800 refurbished, this is a pretty big deal for an introductory retail price point on a full frame DSLR.
