Original Post:

I should not hear this as a beloved Nikon Fan. But we have to accept the truth. While Canon is getting ready for the big day on March 2nd with Canon 5D Mark III, There are rumors going on about delaying Nikon D4 for another one month. I'm already disappointed with Nikon when I hear the story about delaying the release date for D800E and this is a shocking for me.

Proposed release dates for New Nikon product line as follows

• Nikon D800: March 22nd
• Nikon D800E: April 12th (B&H has listed April 16th)
• Nikon D4: second half of April

From above, both Nikon D4 and Nikon D800E have changed their release dates. So our only hope is Nikon D800 at the moment. Let's forget about the release date. I still believe Nikon is (still) the best DSLR in universe. Please do comment on that.

Nikon will delay release date for D800E

Pre-Orders from Amazon for Nikon D800E got a mail saying that Nikon has delayed the release date for Nikon D800E. Proposed released date for Nikon D800E was April 12. However there's no information regarding delay of Nikon D800 which will be releasing on March 22. Still no information about new release date for D800E but Nikon has to be quick since Canon is about to release series of DSLR in coming months.
