Update March 14th: The earthquake and the subsequent tsunami in Japan has a major impact on the photography world as well. In the area are many factories, such as the most important factory of Nikon in Sendei (where the D3 and D700 are produced), the EF-lens factory of Canon, and factories of Sony, Epson, Panasonic and Sigma. It still unclear if these factories have been damaged and what the extend of that damage is, but the problems in the nuclear facilities at Fukushima and the power cuts as a result of these problems means that all these factories have suspended production till further notice.
