Nikon D3x Rumors: Announcement Pending in December?

We've been hearing the rumors for some time now. We were let down by no announcement during Photokina and again during PhotoPlus last week, although the latter was a long shot. Now the rumors are getting louder about a big Nikon press conference in December to announce the alleged D3x. Current firmware pegs the D3x at 24.4 Megapixels (thanks for that slip up Nikon!).

I love my D3. It's such an amazing camera. I just recently sold my D300 camera and housing in anticipation of getting a D3x in addition to my trusted D3. I see no need to get rid of the D3, as it is still a great camera and has an incredibly fast burst rate, albeit at a lower resolution than the soon to be released D3x, which apparently is based on a similar chipset as the Sopny Alpha 900.

 Stay tuned and we'll keep you posted as we hear more.
