This is going to be an interesting camera. The D600 interests me more so than the D800 I can live with 24 MP as opposed to. 36MP

I cant say as I think its an attractive camera. Im not sure I like the squashed appearance of it or the tall prism head.
Maybe it will grow on me lol. It might look better with a lens attached and grip I guess :)
 
does not convince me particularly the out of focus control knob ..does not seem to have the right markings for a up range camera .all the top models have a totally different knob ??

The tall prism head looks interesting - wonder if it'll be 100% viewfinder coverage. The thing that infuriated me most about the D700 was the 95% viewfinder coverage - with only 12MP to start with, losing 5% outside the frame wasn't good for large prints.

The mode select button is identical to the D7000, although why anyone who wants an FX camera would want scene modes is beyond me. The remainder of the layout is very akin to the D7000, with the same AF mode selection that was adopted from the D7000 into the D4 and the D800.

Makes me wonder if Nikon has decided that the days of the pro/prosumer DX are gone in favour of FX. I'll be disappointed if they do go that way - the biggest advantage of DX for me is the 50% extra free mm you get with telephotos. My Siggy 500 f/4.5 on a D7000 gives me more reach than the Nikon 600 f/4 would give on a full frame body, is almost as fast and is about half the cost.
 
..All the pro models have the button controller...??? ~Which is why I think its a fake.
But all this speculation is a waste of effort until the real thing is released
