Peripatetic photojournalist Rob Galbraith has posted an "extended first look" at the Nikon D1X, including a batch of photos of its user interface. (Grr, grr - The Nikon staff explicitly asked us to *not* share photos of the UI, since it was still subject to a great deal of change. I guess Rob was a little more persistent in asking than we were...) At any rate, the info Rob has gleaned is extensive, and doubtless of interest to anybody contemplating a high-resolution digital SLR. There clearly is/will be more changes in many aspects of the UI (Rob's shots show a total of 36 entries in the Custom Settings Menu, while other cameras at PMA had 35, and only a few days before the show, the number was 33), but the information presented is nonetheless interesting, and the major features aren't likely to change much at this point. Check out Rob's excellent article for many insights into Nikon's latest take on professional digital SLRs!
