Nikon D820 / D900 to feature 70-80MP sensor with 4K video
May 23, 2016 13:23 by Dragos Pirvu]
Nikon is allegedly working on a successor for the D810, called D820 or D900, that will feature a Sony-made sensor with 70 to 80 megapixels and 4K video recording support.The most rumored DSLR of recent years, Canon 5D Mark IV, will become official in August or September in order to be ready for the Photokina 2016. The camera will likely shoot 4K videos and come packed with numerous improvements over the aging 5D Mark III.
In an online article talking about the next-generation EOS 5D-series camera, user sickheadache claims that he has spoken with someone familiar with the matter, who said that the Nikon D820 or D900 will also offer 4K video recording capabilities. Nikon D820 / D900 will reportedly come packed with a 70 to 80-megapixel sensor.
The megapixel war is far from being over on the consumer market. Sony is selling the A7R II, a mirrorless camera with over 42 megapixels, while Canon is offering the 5DS and 5DS R DSLRs with more than 50 megapixels. It appears that Sony will raise the stakes with the so-called A9, that will employ a 70-80-megapixel sensor. In turn, Nikon will use the same sensor in the D810 replacement.
Nikon D810 will be replaced by the D820 DSLR, which may employ a 70-80MP sensor from Sony.
There are some gossip talks about the likelihood of a Nikon D820 / D900 happening in the not so distant future. It will probably show up to the market sometime after the 5D Mark IV, which is not expected to have a big-megapixel sensor, like its 5D-series siblings.
Its main rival, Nikon, will once again partner with Sony in order to use the PlayStation maker’s sensor in its camera. The sensor will have anywhere between 70 to 80 megapixels. There are no details about its maximum ISO sensitivity or dynamic range, but the device will be able to record 4K videos.
In a follow-up comment, the user says that the sensor might even shoot up to 6K videos. In the past, there were mentions of 6K or 8K video recording in the Panasonic GH5, so we might be in for a great battle in the videography department.
Either way, the D810 camera was launched in mid-2014 and the D800 / D800E became available back in 2012. The Photokina 2016 event is fast-approaching, therefore we would not be surprised if the Nikon D820 / D900 makes an appearance sometime in the following few months.
Nevertheless, everything is based on rumor and speculation, which means that you should not jump to conclusions for now. Stay tuned to Camyx for more information!
Yeah definitely wasn't news I wanted to see. I think they are large enough to be able to handle a restructuring but wouldn't be surprised if it delays some projects and releases.

Time will tell, there were rumors of being sold a year or so ago.
They became complacent and stagnant and made a series of blunders.
-The low light king made their flagship model D5 not perform as well as the D4(s) for the price it wasn't a "gotta have it" model the D3 and D4 were.
-The totally ignored the mirrorless market. The J series was a short lived joke, and they never took the pro market seriously.
-They put resources into developing an overpriced go pro competitor...WTF
-Their newest 70-200 2.8VR lens is absurdly over priced
Canon is guilty of missing the boat on the mirrorless market as well (even though they just released the M5 and now M6 bodies, which imo still can't touch fuji or others) but Canon has the film/video world, Nikon missed the boat, too.
Delays? They out right cancelled a whole line, the DL bodies. They did screw the pooch on the D5 IQ. If Sony buys them and starts making F mount bodies..........
