This does not mean I am dumping my R8DMR by the way.  I will keep it and use 
it as my main DSLR until it dies, it is still very healthy.

Cheers,
Gene

Yes, it will.  I would like to have a D3 or D3s, but cannot find one 
anywhere around here.  At this point I will maybe wait and see if the long 
rumored D4 will show up sometime soon.

Sendai plant is shut down right now.

Being a smaller company compared to Canon this will be tough on Nikon.
