I’m starting to get a bad feeling regarding the credibility of this series of “leaks“. This third “ad” appearing on Nikon Rumors seems to be some edited photos of existing PC lenses (see comments on NR’s post for evidence). If that’s the case, then this whole series appears to be busted.
Now, let’s go back to the drawing board on Nikon MX and the BIG news.

Muller Photo, a French electronics seller, has posted product pages for the Sony A900 and Canon EOS 7D. While neither page divulges anything regarding the cameras’ specifications, Muller Photo lists prices for both cameras.
Whether Muller Photo knows something the rest of us don’t remains to be seen. Muller Photo could just be capitalizing on some free press by listing these product pages.
Stay tuned to Photography Bay’s coverage of these cameras for latest as we lead up to Photokina 2008:
Canon EOS 7D (PB rumors page).
Sony A900 (PB rumors and news page).

Thom Hogan is feeling pretty confident on his information and has posted what are believed to be the actual specs of the new Nikon D90, which is expected to be announced shortly.
The Nikon D90 will feature the following specs:
Clearly, Nikon is aiming to one-up the previous generation DSLRs with specs like these. The video capture will surely be a big selling point in the consumer market.
I’ll withhold my thoughts for know, but I want to know: What do you think about video capture in the Nikon D80 replacement?

According to Kamera & Bild, who claims to have notice of the press conference, Canon will be dropping the bombshell on August 26th. The only question is whether the new EOS will be the Canon 3D, 5D Mark II, 6D, 7D or some other model (or two).
Photography Bay will stay on top of the news and rumors to the bitter end and beyond. Stay tuned.

Photoclub Alpha has confirmed that Sony will be announcing an “exciting digital camera” on August 14.
They go on to say that they don’t think this will be the announcement for the Sony A900 and expect it to come closer to Photokina at “an international Sony Alpha press trip on Sept 9/10th to Edinburgh.”
No other word on what the “exciting digital camera” for August 14 could be. It’s just a little over a week though, so we’ll probably see some more leaks and hints. Stay tuned and we’ll keep you posted when more is known.

Thom Hogan may be having a little fun with us based on info that he’s received from sources within or close to Nikon. In a recent forum post, Thom threw out some numbers while discussing the rumored Nikon D90. These were tossed around by Thom in response to a silly lottery number question.
Try something like 12, 4.5, 3, 11, 90, and 105. For the bonus number use 1080.
While it may seem rather trite, Nikon Rumors has read a little deeper into these and given us their interpretation of the winning numbers:
12mp, 4.5FPS, 3″ LCD, 11 point AF, D90, 105mm lens and 1080 video recording.
I think Thom is enjoying himself (and probably passing along good info too). Kudos to NR for reading between the lines. I remain a bit skeptical on the 1080 video “recording”. I would expect if that number is for real it has to do more with the interface and compatibility with high-def devices – much like Sony has done in recent history.
