Does anyone have any guesses as to when the D400 will be announced? I'm a Photojournalism student and I have a D5100 that's not tough enough for my needs - The buttons are really worn out & squishy and the rubber is peeling off and it only has about 37, 000 clicks. And I don't want to buy a used D300s because I know as soon as I do the D400 will be announced…
My wife is a photographer, and last Thursday her edited pictures began having problems. Her photos would look good on our computer, but when they were uploaded into MPIX ROES, e-mailed, burnt to a cd, or sent via yousendit, they would become muted. My wife has been using the same computer, photoshop, monitor, etc. For 2 years, so nothing had changed in our equipment and software.
We had been using Spyder 3 to calibrate the monitor, and we have since calibrated the monitor a few times. We have Norton Anti-Virus, and have Ad-Ware and Spy-Ware programs as back ups to Norton. Initially we though the color may be off on our computer, but the pictures look fine on facebook, and are just fine on our computer.
Yesterday we bought Photoshop 5, and decided to purchase a new laptop in hopes this would solve the issue. Since I'm writing this question, I'm sure you can guess that this problem has persisted to the new computer. I would think that it would be an issue with the files, but even new photos taken are having this problem The photos look fine on the computer, but as soon as they are compressed/uploaded/transmitted they become muted. We actually had one set of photos go through and the picture color was muted on one computer, then we sent it to another computer and the color was fine but the pictures became blurry.
Photoshop says the problem is not with their software. We have some computer people working on this. They have been uninstalling and installing things left and right, but they have no idea. They thought buying the new computer and system would work. Could this be an issue with the camera? In case this matters, it is a Nikon D300.
Any help would monumentally appreciated… Especially now at the holidays (which is my wife's busy season).
Thank you.
Added (1). It is not a single picture that is the problem, it is entire sessions. We have actually taken pictures on thumb drives to various other computers (in-laws, friends, neighbors), and the pictures look fine on these computers. The issue still remains that during the transfer it seems that all the files become corrupted.
I would have thought there was something with the RGB, but I can't understand why this would affect pictures during transfer as the pictures look fine on multiple computers. We have even tried taking the files, putting them on a flash drive, uploading them to other computers (where they look fine), then opening MPix Roes and they are still having issues on those computers. We're absolutely at a loss.
Would this be a good first camera?
For christmas, i decided to get myself something nice and get a nikon d300. I was wondering if that's a good camera to start off with, and what lenses are pretty good?
Is the Nikon D3x smaller than the Nikon D3s?

Best compact flash card reader?
Looking for suggestions for the best compact flash card reader. I have a nikon d700 camera and the last reader i had was from jessops, which was quite flimsy and broke.

Firmware v2.0 is required for body to recognize cards/drives larger than 2 GB, and cards/drives must be initially formatted as FAT32 in a computer. (Early v1.x firmware supported FAT16 only, so without the firmware upgrade the D100 will only be able to use or "see" 2 GB of available memory on larger cards.)

I saw a set up with Nikon SB900 on a monopod with an umbrella, is there any transmitter that will allow me to use that set up in high speed sync mode? I'm thinking 1000th/s+?
Added (1). I have a D700 but the flash sync doesn't work unless there's line of sight, the sensor has to be facing the camera to work. If i were to have this set up i'm worried that if my assistant keeps moving it the umbrella or the angle of the flash will disrupt the signal etc?
I need opinions on DSLR cameras?
FIRST which one would you prefer: Nikon D300 Nikon 3100 or Canon Rebel T3
Second: Is the Nikon D300 a good camera
and just your opinions on the cameras in general.
