While I was updating the Current Nikon DSLR table, I looked at the street prices on the various Nikon models still available. Here's the summary:
- D40: US$140 drop since intro (24%)
- D60: US$100 drop since intro (14%)
- D90: US$65 drop since intro (5%)
- D300: US$250 drop since intro (14%)
- D700: US$480 drop since intro (16%)
- D3: US$600 drop since intro (12%)
Of these, only the D40 and D60 have seen official price drops from Nikon to dealers, plus of course US$300 of the price drop on the D700 is from the instant rebate program. In all the other cases the lower price is due to dealers dropping prices due to lower demand.
