Price increase on Nikon D3x?

Nikon D3x pricing has not been met with enthusiasm, yet a reader reports today that the D3x price in the UK just went up from £5499 to £5999, 9.1%.

Could a US price increase be in the works for the D3x? That’s the word on the street, so order your D3x today which is in stock at B&H Photo as I write this.

Readers point out that the currency fluctuations have been not in favor of the British Pound, so we may be spared here in the US, and actually the dollar has risen slightly against the Yen in the past month.

Check out the substantial and numerous rebates at B&H Photo on a wide variety of cameras, lenses, and other items. While Nikon contemplates raising prices, Leica is offering a $1500 rebate on the M8, which says a little about the respective demand.
