"After the disappointing fake Nikon D90 comes a much more plausible looking Nikon D700 rumor. These shots are supposedly from a leaked print brochure for the new body, and show the D700 to be a full frame, 12.1 megapixel, $3000 camera. This is the same CMOS sensor as used in the top-of-the-line D3, which should bring the amazing low light performance (up to ISO 25600) the new Nikons are getting famous for. Inside you'll find 14bit A/D conversion and 16 bit image processing courtesy of Nikon's EXPEED processor, 51 focus points, a single Compact Flash slot (come on Nikon. Switch to SD already), and a tough magnesium body."
Given the very significant pricing gap between the D300 ($1800, body only) and the D3 ($5000, body only), it's not surprising to see rumours about a "middle-ground" camera that has a full-frame sensor, but lacks some of the high-end features of the D3. I'd put this one in the "probable" category of rumours.
