Will the price on D7000 drop after D800?

Question

As you all probably already know the D800 comes out in the near future. I'm going to buy a D7000, but do you think the price will drop after the D800 comes out? Will I get it cheaper if I wait. Does anyone know how the price changed (or didn't change) after a new model came out before?

Thanks!

Answer

Often enough people have the mentality of waiting 'till the latest model comes out before buying used that demand spikes which causes the prices to go up, not down!

The price of a D7000 will decrease over time regardless of the D800, however you have to offset a possible cost reduction against the time you could be out shooting with your D7000!
