Below are several purported press releases that were “leaked” on the DPReview.com forums this morning. If true, Nikon has got a great consumer DSLR/lens lineup for PMA. Here’s the short list:

According to the Germans, the D60 will be introduced by Nikon at PMA as a follow up to the D40x:
A german magazine (SFT) writes in the current (as from 30.01.08) edition, that Nikon will offer the D60 next month.
The guy who got the subscribed edition yesterday, said, the D60 looks like an D40/X and the KIT includes a 18-55/VR.
Further a anti dust system or something similar will be offered. That’s all! I hope it’s no fake and he makes a picture from the news in the magazine. (via)

Just when the Canon gearheads started to exhale over the Pre-PMA announcement of the Rebel XSi / 450D, word from someone “in the know” leaks info that Canon’s got a PMA surprise coming very soon.
It won’t be like a 5D replacement. Think of it more like a direct hit to D300. It’s just one step, not five, above 40D. (Via)
Could this be the fabled 7D, or perhaps a 40Dn? I expect something like the former rather than the latter if this rumor is legit.
Stay tuned for the latest.
