According to rumors, Nikon would be launching the D600 today at Thailand followed by a another press conference launch in Dubai. If rumors are true then the Nikon D600 would be a 24.3 mega pixel CMOS full frame (FX) sensor camera with a 100% viewfinder coverage and can capture Full HD. I wouldn’t mention abouts the specs and other details, you can check [here]. The expected price is around US $2000.
It would be more interesting to see if both these event launches would be the same in 2 places or are we looking for a bigger surprise. It could well be that Nikon D600 would be launched in Thailand since D600 as speculated would be a “Made in Thailand” body and the Dubai launch will perhaps reveal a new upgrade for Nikon D7000 (DX) camera.
Whatever the surprise is in store Nikon would have to manage well to deal with the demand from consumers, they are still having a tough time dealing with the Nikon D800 supply.
Well its just a matter of few hours more, For sure with the type of specs rumored the Nikon D600 will sell like hot cakes.
Update: The speculation is over and the rumours are put to rest, Nikon releases 3 consumer products – Nikon D600, Nikon 18.5mm f/1.8 and the Communication Unit UT-1, which supports more efficient image transfer over Ethernet and wireless networks for digital-SLR cameras
