While the above test from Digital Rev is not quite the serious endeavor, I’m still quite amazed at the abuse the Canon 7D took and the functionality it retained after the fact.

Nikon D600, Cheaper Full Frame Camera Rumored

The Nikon D600 may be the camera that a lot of prosumer shooters have been waiting for . . . that is, if rumors of its specs and price point turn out to be true. Nikon Rumors has posted rumored specifications of a 24MP full frame D600 set to be released later this summer (pre-Photokina, which is in September).
The big kicker though is a price point that is rumored to be as low as $1500 (half the price Nikon D800). This would open up full frame cameras to a whole new market.
Key rumored specs include:
- 24MP CMOS sensor (manufactured by Sony)
- HD video capture
- 39 AF points
- 5fps
- Dual SD card slots (with Eye-Fi support)
- 1/250s flash sync
- Built-in GPS
- No internal AF motor (autofocusing w/ AF-S lenses only)
What do you think? Would those of you considering APS-C cameras like the D7000 or D300s/D400 be interested in a D600 with the above specs?

Leica M Monochrom Black & White Camera
The Leica M Monochrom is a new 18MP, full frame, black-and-white-only digital camera. The sensor was designed from the ground up as a black and white sensor.
Per Leica, “As the sensor does not ‘see’ colors, every pixel records true luminance values – as a result, it delivers ‘true’ black-and-white images that are significantly sharper than comparable exposures from a camera with a color-sensitive sensor.”
The Leica M Monochrom should be available in July 2012 for $7950. Check B&H Photo for availability.
