Recent rumors suggest the previously leaked Nikon D3300, along with new Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G FX and 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G DX lenses are due at CES 2014 on January 7.
Along with the D3300 and new lenses, we should also expect some new point and shoot cameras from Nikon.
Rumored specs of the new lenses are as follows:
Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G Rumored Specs
- 11 elements in 8 groups, 1 aspherical and 1 ED elements
- No golden ring
- Minimum focusing distance: 25 cm

- 7 blades aperture (rounded)
Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6G DX VRII Rumored Specs
- 11 elements in 8 groups and 1 aspherical element
- Really compact (collapsable) and light lens body
- Filter size: 52mm
- Weight: under 200g / 7 oz
- 7 blades aperture (rounded)

I think the major upgrade to the D3300 against D3200 will be wireless capability. Just the same upgrade like D5300 against D5200. But I hope will be something more evaluated like Panasonic and Sony and not the same primitive like D5300, that is nothing more than the expensiv and primitive WU-1a.
