I have D2H images - had a play with one pre prod sample today

I'll start. Interesting story. Cute write up. I don't believe a word.

Why would Nikon let you use the D2H and take the images with you?
Why would they do that in a store?
Why would the first lens they let you put on be a Tamron?

It might have been more believable if the images had exif info in them. To hard to resize an image an keep the exif info in place?

Still a nice story though, I simply don't believe a word.

I think you're wrong. I also am going to bookmark this thread as this is an example of a classic issue on these forums. People see so many bogus threads/rumors that they don't even realize when an obviously real post comes along. I'm actually amazed the leaked D2H PDF was believed almost unanimously, as this was another example of an obviously real post that some might assume is a fake.

Bwhahahah

you crack me up.

ACDSee is much quicker and easier than photoshop, but it gets rid of exif.

But here you go, 1.7meg:



straight of the camera, just renamed.

Sorry,
yup, my mistake, its the 17-40 f4 L.

it was ISO1600.

And all the images of the D2h were take with the same 10D and 17-40 f4L.
You mention a 17-40f/2.8 lens. This is either the 17-35f/2.8 or
the 17-40f/4. I sure hope it's the 17-35f/2.8 as it's rare to find
a copy of the 17-40 that soft at f/5.6.

I have had three Nikon dSLRs. It takes effort to resize images and lose the exif info. It's also the first thing anyone with a digital cameras asks for when looking at any images from a camera. Even resized images.

So, why should I believe this one when he went through the effort to make sure the images didn't contain EXIF info? All he needs to do is post one image with EXIF info to make it believable.

Also, why would Nikon allow him to put his own card in the camera after so many were told no? It might be true but it seems to me he went out of his way to make me think these are frauds. Why who he do that?

All your points are basically valid, but what you (and I guess others that fall into your trap) have done is to ignore the big picture. I can only remember 1 even remotely true sounding new camera post on any of these SLR forums in the past 2.5 years. That person stated shortly after that it was just his guess and not real info. Luckly for us, reasonably intelligent people are not sitting around creating rumor/new camera threads on these forums, as then they'd actually be hard to spot. Instead it's idiots that always have one dead give away in their post. There wasn't a single issue like this with the original post.

Maybe someone could go to that shop and take a nef-file.
dynamic range/blown highlights??
I should have done that.

The shop doesnt have one, the Nikon rep was in just showing the camera.
It will most likely hit the stores sometime in september.
 
Which is all I was really asking for. My windows version of Nikon View and Nikon Capture blow up (crash) on the image. I guess Nikon has more work to do.

However, Mac versions do have a problem at all. The image was taken in Program mode, auto sharpening, auto contrast, flash WB, in color mode II using ISO 200. Since it was taken in color mode II, it's washed out since most viewers can't handle Adobe RGB. Flash WB is close enough to sunny to be ok. The image used the Tamron 28-75 DI, at 20mm. (Not a bad lens.)

Camera Aid shows the camera version at 0.23. As typical, the date on the camera needs to be reset.
