next 16 months...

20 April 2005 - Launching Nikon D70s

next 16 months...

9 August 2006 - Launching of D80

and another 16 months...

someday on January 2008 - Launching of D80s / D90?? Not happened.. Hehe..

There is still no news about low-end DSLR after D3 and D300 launching on last August 2007. Some rumors that there is new Nikon camera, whether D80s or D90, will launch on June 2008. And even some people make speculation about this new camera specifications, like this one I copy from this website.

• 12 Megapixel APS-C sized CMOS sensor (identical to the D300 sensor)
• D80 body (plastic, no wheather seals) and viewfinder
• D200 AF sensor (11-points, 1 cross type)
• 4 fps continious shooting
• 3.0” 922K LCD (This may require body design change)
• No Live View
• Anti-Dust
• Improved high ISO performance with the CMOS sensor
• Improved metering
• Improved battery life
• $1000-$1200 price range

Hmmm... Looking forward to see this new camera.
