This camera will certainly be geared towards the studio photographer and it's very likely we'll see D300 like specifications in that body, just with the higher resolution sensor and FX sized sensor. Nikon may have a twist on the AF system as well.  Such a camera would be excellent for pretty much studio and all around use. Again, expect a price in the $8,000 range.

I'm only completely speculating but i reckon it will be cheaper than that. Nikon has never released a body that's more than $5000. I think they will take away some of the D3 features which are not studio centric (like 8 fps etc) to reduce the cost. Studio monkeys (imo) will not be drawn to a new system if the cost of switching is too high. I think Nikon will throw a spanner in the works and release something not too far from the price of the D3. Now that would create a stir
