D3 picture faked?

Joseph S Wisniewski · Mar 4, 2007

Someone managed to make the 150th post to the D3 thread, with a link to a picture.

Let's ignore the fact that it looks like nothing more than a D2X with a photoshopped '3'.

Has anyone seen a full frame camera, such as an F6? The pentaprism is much bigger than the D2X.

Normally, a signature this small can't open its own jumpgate.

A FF camera with a DC lens on it?
This is just a D2x with a "3" slapped on it, don't you think?

Sorry, that was supposed to be a "DX", of course. (Looks suspiciously like a golden DX label on the lens.) I don't own one, but I'm pretty sure it's a 17-55 DX.

Not only a photoshopped D2X, but a pretty much used D2X !!! LOL

Here it's the F6.

That would be a fake. They are all a fake, but this is the best one, yet.

If you zoom the image to 300% in Opera 9 browser you will see a big difference between the 3 and the D and X

Not even a good fake.

snorri · Mar 4, 2007

Dude, that's not a fake -- the F6 has been in production since 2004

It's fake. Original picture (Nikon D2x) is located to Slovakian server.

Scroll down and click Nikon D2x picture and there it is!

Oh boy, the yearning for a new Nikon to go head to head with the best from Canon is growing louder and louder.

I was just poking fun of you a bit for replying to the wrong posting ;-)

I assumed that the "x" in the "D2x," etc., referred to the DX format. If that's the case, then this wouldn't be a FF camera.

Hammer_61 · Mar 4, 2007

I don't believe that the X refers to the imaging sensor size. It's a carryover from the D1H/D1X --> D2H/D2X naming convention.

I have an F6 and the prism housing is noticeably larger than the D2 series (which I also have). That looks like the D2 series prism housing...

What´s this obsession with the size of the prism house? My old Nikon FE has a considerably smaller prism house than the D2X. Not to mention the Oly OM series...
Ok, so let´s talk DSLR:s, have you never seen a Canon 5D?
Why would a Nikon FF DSLR need to have a prism house the size of the F6?
