When rumours about D600 appeared months ago I was sure that this would be my next camera. But things in micro have changed. I'd better buy three iPhones instead.  :-\

1/4000 shutter - hmm i believe this is one important feature that make the difference compared with D800.

One very important + is for 5.5 fps.

I'm curious about the price....

Very rarely do you need 1/4000th shutter, so for me and probably most microstock shooters it's not a very important feature, but nice as a back pocket feature.  Same for FPS.  Really depends on what context you are baselining your comments on, 1; microstock or other uses like 2;sports photography, two completely different techniques..generally speaking who would, or would not use your techniques.

Canon 6D is a big disappointment. That why so many discussions about it on this microstock forum.

Here's a nice review of the D600

Seem like a pretty good microstock camera for Nikon shooters

I wonder how long Canon can get away with their new "add a little and charge a lot more" approach. I love my 5DMII but that D800 is pretty tempting.

I know... if it wasn't the lens in the game i had switched the camera brands long ago.... to D800. Please microstock agencies give me 3-4 BME in a row and i definitely make the move.  :P ::)
