Exactly. Plus it need not to be F, it could use an adaptor to accomodate F. Thus we can have best of both worlds/
And TTL, also.

I'm quite sure such a "digital rangefinder" would have AF, TTL metering and an electronic TTL viewfinder...

Isn't that 990 a gem? One of my recent shots with it..
Not the sharpest pic, but I love NYC! I am also in long deliberation over when to jump into the DSLR pool, awaiting the announcements during PMA.

Don't get too high hopes on a price drop for the D100 IMO, the coolpix 5700 sells for $1200, and most of the top p&S are around $800 to $1000.
If the D100 sells for $1700, in the next 4-8 months, that would be the extent of the drop, even if an improved version comes out in March, the improved version may sell for $2200 or $2400. In that case, e-bay may be flooded with 'old' D100, so perhaps you can get a 6 months used D100 for $1500.

A somewhat easy guess, considering Nikon announced 4 DX lenses and we know of only one
Although there have been 4 lens announcements total ( Dx or not)

What's funny is I was talking to a vendor and they claim there is a D2X that is going to at least be announced over the next month and they claimed it would be 10 MP which is right in line with what some of the articles on the Web are saying.
The real question is where will they get the CCD from? Who makes a 10 MP CCD?

Kodak announced a 11 MP CCD just before Photokina last year - and then used a CMOS sensor in their 14n camera. I thought I remember speculation on this forum that Nikon might use the CCD. Here's a link to the press release

Who makes 10 MP CCDs? Sony who else? it will be custom made so you are not likely to find a spec sheet on the web I guess. and let me surprise you a little. The CCD in the D1H and probably the D1X as well is actually 10.6 MP. I am not talking about NC 3.x interpolation. I am talking real pixels. It was a rumor that the in the D1h you have 4 photosites are masked as one and in the D1X 2 photsites are masked vertically as one which is the reason for the rectangular pixels. At first I doubted that although comparing dimensions of the photosites on both sensors and the rectangular pixels of the D1X were very suspicion-invoking. Very recently Bjorn Rorslett made a close up of the D1H sensor pixels and you could see for each pixels 4 subpixels maked as one under the bayer mosaic each with its micro lens. If you go back and read the D1 sensor specs and compare it it to the D1H and D1X you will be very suspicious that it also had this same sensor design.
here is Bjorn's post with the pixel photo

If Nkon increases tht CCD size exactly to 24*16 (currently it is a bit less), we will have 11 MP. Even Chassuer D'images said that the D2 will have the pixels halved vertically and horizontally i.e. halving the D1X in two.
However it is likely that the sensor passed through various modifications and refinements from the D1 to D1X and H and the expected D2. Yet in all D1 cases it had more pixels than its output

All I have to say is that I am very happy with my D-100 that I have been using for a few months. The resuts i am getting are great and clients are pleased. I have made my money back from my investment and i willl keep this camera for a while. There will always be something new and better but the D-100 as is, works great for me.

According to Chasseur d'Images it is now almost certain that Nikon will announce new DSLR's during PMA:
"Naturally the repositioning of the D100 (same price as the 10D) is not incompatible with the announcements of new cameras, which will be be conducted during PMA, but which (the cameras) will not be available until summer or even fall."

- CANON attaque en premier en positionnant le remplaçant du D60 prix très agressif. Le nouvel EOS 10 sera affiché, dès la fin du mois de mars, à 2.400 euros boîtier nu;
- NIKON suit et "réaligne" le D100, qu'il souhaite faire durer encore un an, à un prix voisin. Nous pourrions surtout voir arriver des kits D100 + 12-24mm à un tarif intéressant.
- PENTAX vient de dévoiler ses cartes avec la version numérique (D comme Digital) de son petit Star-ist. Un reflex miniature, basé sur le CCD 6Mpix du D100, et dont la fiche technique est assez musclée (bel obturateur, AF performant, excellent système d'exposition). Il ne sera certainement pas à la vente avant septembre 2003, mais son prix devrait aussi se situer aux alentours de 2.400 euros.
if nikon has 4 smallish DX lenses, it makes perfect sense for them to make a small, light and durable pro rangefinder body for journalism use. i can't wait to see it!

...they decided to jump the competition by adding some cool wireless technology for image transfer and perhaps a pocket wizard transciever?
