Perhaps this is way to test the waters, he knows that there is a strong contingent of Nikon/Canon users waiting for a D300s/7D upgrade. It seems that both Canon and Nikon are dragging there feet in regard to the high-end APS-C follow-on products. Throwing the D600 and the 6D out there prior to the 7D and D300s upgrades may have been part of this testing the market of a FF upgrade path for high-end APS-C bodies. I don't think either cameras made a big enough bite into semi-pro users to give either company a clear indication as to what will happen if they abandon their current semi-pro lines. They also have to consider the investment customers have in EF-S and DX glass, suddenly that market will drop out for the current owners. I do think that the sales of the 2 new FF's was not met with as much gusto as they had anticipated, nor did a sufficient number of 7D/D300s users switch to them. Neither company wants a marketing blunder and each are hoping for the other to make the first move
