Well can we expect a D880 with the features and downsides of the D780? 46 MP ?

Such a shame if the D880 doesn't have pdaf - that means Nikon DSLR live view focusing will never be as good as Canon. BIG shame Nikon.

@WestEndFoto only one of those lenses doesn’t have a markably better Z version. I would take that £1500 in FTZ's and those lenses to trade up for Z versions.

The D780 seems similar to the Z6 so I think a D880 would be similar to the Z7 (or its successor). I don't think Nikon will put much research into DSLRs, but will release them with mirorrless tech leftovers as long as there is a demand. Posts: Member January 2020

I have read through the past view years of comments on the topic and didn't see my question addressed.

Just for fun: Which year do you think the last F-mount, FX, DSLR camera will be discontinued? What will it be called? I say 2026 and D880 (maybe D7).

Wow. Another epic statement from the class of "real-photographers-do-like-this-and-that" by Ken Rockwell, from yesterday. Check it out: AF Fine Tune?

An additional question is, how many shutter actuations did your camera have when it died? I wonder how much data we can collect from this forum. My D40 had 28,077 actuations when it croaked on me.

I would like to see a D550 and D880 as the last hurrah of the DSLR world from Nikon to include the D6 AF. As for the Z6s and Z7s they just need more processing, but even then I think mirrorless is not quite me for some subjects yet. I very much hope the D6 isn't the last Nikon, that would be going out with a whimper. But maybe they'll pull a R5 class performer with the Z7s and no one will care ...
