    Soon-to-be released: the Nikon D70x
    Major Features of the Nikon D70x

    Accurate, vivid color

    * 10.0 effective megapixels

    * New Nikon DX Format CCD imaging sensor features an improved signal to noise ratio and broader dynamic range that produces 5,008 x 3,000-pixel images with high resolution and superbly sharp details.

    * The advanced digital image processor has no multiplication factor.

    * New advanced digital image processor uses next-generation algorithms to handle all steps of digital image processing and optimize image quality, while also controlling auto white balance, auto tone and color control, as well as real-time processes to diminish digital noise and produce beautiful long exposure shots.

    * Accurate white balance achieved by Nikon's acclaimed 3D Color Matrix Meter with 1,055pixels for highly precise control over white balance regardless of lighting conditions. Choose from auto TTL white balance, six different manual modes, or preset white balance. White balance bracketing is also available.

    * Continuous shooting at 4 frames per second for a continuous burst of up to 160 pictures (using JPEG NORMAL - Large settings, and a SanDisk SDCHF256MB CompactFlashTM card) thanks to improved buffer memory handling, faster image processing, increased memory card access speed and greater system bus bandwidth. The number of continuous shots possible in a single burst may be fewer depending on the type of digital hard-card drive used.

    * Fast flash sync shutter speeds up to 1/750 sec. available for great fill effects under bright-light conditions.

    * Proven lithium-ion battery system delivers the power to shoot up to 3,000 images* on a single charge. A $1,995 solar-recharger option is available: the ability to use direct sunlight to recharge the supplied Lithium-ion Battery EN-EL3, while using the camera outdoors.
