Re: [Digital BW] New 6+mp Nikon D100

Can ask where you have seen that?  If you go to the B&H website or 
catalog it clearly says F100.  I'm not trying to dispute, I just want to 
know.

When I bought our first D1X, one of the biggest suprises and  
disappointments for me was that it was on the F100. It looked the 
same as our current F100's, just about everything about it seemed 
like the F100. That made the transition easier but...I still felt cheated 
somehow.

BTW: even though the finder is a bit taller than the F100, look at the 
specs for the F5, F100 and D1X.  The F5 is a 100% viewable frame 
finder. The F100 and D1X are 96%. The F100/D1X has 
superimposed AF areas, the F5 does NOT. The F5 does 7 fps while 
the D1X 3 fps and the F100 4 fps.

Since it's "supposed" to be such conglomeration of both, it doesn't 
really matter. I just seems that at that price it SHOULD be F5 and I'd 
really like to see it in writing. Preferably officially from Nikon.
