Nikon – Pure Photography: Parts 3-6 (Teaser Videos)

Nikon will announce tomorrow the new DF full frame retro camera. This will happen after all 6 teaser videos from the “pure photography” campaign have been released over the past week or so (we have already posted here part 1 and part 2).

Here is a quick reminder on what we know about the Nikon DF (thanks to our friends at NikonRumors).

Will most probably have the same 16MP full frame sensor as the D4 (but with no AA filter).
Has a a EVF/OVF hybrid viewfinder (Nikon filed a patent on this technology a while back and Fujifilm has a similar technology on its X-PRO1 and X100 lines).
New hybrid mechanical shutter (does the hybrid stands for mechanical+electronic isn’t clear at this point).
Uses a EN-EL15 battery
Includes a high-res 3″ LCD display.
Can be used as true mirror lock up for non-AI lenses while still allowing viewing through view finder.
Lots of manual controls.
Expeed 3A processor (interestingly not the new Expeed 4 introduced in the D5300).
Price: $3,000 for body only, $3,300 for a kit with the new upcoming 50mm f/1.8G lens specifically designed for the camera (new information might indicate a lower price – set between the D610 and the D800).

We shall know much more tomorrow when the camera is officially announced.
