Any chance of the D80 being phased out?

No
I work at currys, and have noticed (like said before) that all of our Nikon D80 packages have gone clearance, and they are now very hard to get hold of.
Does anyone have any ideas why? I wouldnt have thought that it is being phased out because it isnt that old, and i havnt heard of a replacement for it?
Or are there new lenses/packcages being released for it, or a revamp on the body?

Cheers, Ben

Hi Ben - The D80 came out Sept 06 so not its likely it'll be "phased out" for a while - Nikon might do a D80s like they did with the D70 - But they have just released the D300 & D3 so I wouldn't bank on a D80 update for a while (?)

Maybe currys are just juggling their range around
 
Curry's are not exactly a specialist camera shop. Perhaps Nikon have stopped supplying them, could be a number of reasons really.

Hope you snapped yourself up a bargain, or two, then Ben ... :D



Can't see any more adjustments to Nikon's range for a little while after the furore of the last day or so ... :eek: ... plenty to keep everyone busy and on their toes ... :shrug:
