Nikon UK says that due to an internal systems error, incorrect recommended retail prices (RRPs) on the D800, D800E and D4 (pictured) were communicated in the UK and Irish markets at the time of announcement. The correct RRPs for the products should have been D4: £5289.99, D800: £2,599.99 and D800E: £2,899.99. The new prices are £200-£490 higher than the incorrect ones. Nikon will be honouring the original prices to retailers on all customer pre-orders placed before 24th March.
