The D5 will be an SLR, but Nikon have patented a DX format mirrorless lens recently, which shows they are actively working in that direction:

Do I spot microphone holes just above the D5 logo?

At this stage of the D5 development, creations by massaging existing product shots are far more likely to show than the genuine article itself.

I think this is an actual photo of a D5. It might however be of a prototype, hence not representing the final product.
What is interesting is the pentaprism house which seems narrower than the current D4S.

yea, the high res looks too good for a mock up and the "hand model" adds to the impression.

How many of you are actually looking forward to upgrade to the D5? Personally I am still a happy owner of the original D3... never had a justifiable reason to upgrade.
Said that I am looking forward to see what Nikon will come up with!

Not interested in the D5 itself perse but I am very curious which new capabilities and improved features it will bring to the Nikon DSLR line up.

Apparently the D5 will have 153 auto focus points with a much larger coverage, if so the D810 and D300s successors will probably also get this new AF module.

The D5 sensor will probably also end up in a Df MKII, even better if it can be combined with the new AF module instead of the consumer version it has now and even beterererer if both will be used in a true D700 successor (eg a compact high ISO race horse) ;D

If the D5 isn't much of an improvement over the D4(s) it will at least drop the prices of the D4 and D4s which might become a more financial interesting option for my "something long" purchase in the near future.

And of course I'm very curious if the D5 will be a big "eat this" statement to the mirrorless uprising.
Cheers,
Jan Anne

I am also interested in the tech developments and not the D5 itself.
