There is a new rumor floating around which claims that Nikon will be announcing a new color for the D3100 – one that orientals like, and is often the color of communist flags, a flaming red shade. There is no official press release yet at press time, but we do speculate that the red colored version of the D3100 might actually target just the US market alone, since none of the other international Nikon websites do point anything in this direction.
Granted, the Nikon D3100 is not exactly the hottest device in the market, nor does it pack in features which will turn you on the moment you look at the specifications list, but I suppose a change in color, especially to one as striking as this shade of red, might just shift a few units more than what Nikon expected.
