I was invited to the launch of the new Nikon products in Central London yesterday (30 June) and as the NDA expired at 5.00am this morning, here it is:

Nikon D700, an FX camera to bridge the gap between the D300 and the D3. I’m sure all of you have seen the spec from the Nikon site. But the SB900 stole the show for me and the other 40 guests. This flashgun is simply awesome. The sheer size of it, the zoom which goes up to 200mm, yes 200mm. I think the zoom head is 17-200mm. The head rotatable fully either way, but the best is the new switch / button which allows the flash to be set as remote or master without going into the menu. Will work with SB800 in iTTL mode and compatible with SD8A. There is also a auto cut-off function which cuts off the power when the flash gets very hot by constant firing. So now you can’t fry up your flashes!! Couple of lenses also released and they too look very good.

Will put up some images later on.
