Nikon D4s pre-release speculation
Discussion
News from CES suggests Nikon are working on a new flagship called, perhaps unsurprisingly, the D4s. The only 'specs' revealed are that it has an improved autofocus system and better image quality.
I know it's completely pointless, both because very few of us need or can justify the cost of these cameras and because speculation is pretty pointless, but would anyone like to speculate on some of the headline features?
I'm going to guess at:
Sensor: 24MP with no OLPF
Autofocus: 61 point AF with 30ish cross type
Continuous Shooting: 12fps
Storage: Twin CF card slots
I also imagine a host of new video modes but probably not 4K

12fps will be of huge interest to sports photographers.I know it's completely pointless, both because very few of us need or can justify the cost of these cameras and because speculation is pretty pointless, but would anyone like to speculate on some of the headline features?

Sticking at 24MP is a good thing for file sizes.
AF - No idea, I've never wanted a better system than my 2008 D700 offers
Storage - Twin CF makes sense. An older system but it's harder to lose/dmage CF cards.
Couldn't afford one anyway, and even the D600, D800 and D4 have never for one second made me want to ditch the D700. I'd rather buy lenses.
