Nikon D3 12.1MP FX Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) from:
NikonDesigned with sports photographers and photojournalists in mind, the Nikon D3 introduces an astounding list of brand new features and technologies that make it the most sophisticated and advanced Nikon digital SLR to date. In addition to the new FX- format CMOS sensor, the D3 incorporates Nikon’s new EXPEED Image Processing System that is central to the blazing speed and processing power needed for many of the D3’s new features.
The 12.1 effective megapixel D3 features Nikon’s new FX-format CMOS sensor, measuring 23.9 x 36mm, which is nearly identical to the size of 35mm film. With the fastest start-up time, shortest viewfinder blackout time, and shortest shutter lag of any digital SLR camera, as well as the capability to shoot up to nine frames per second at full FX-format resolution, the D3 is the world’s fastest digital SLR camera in its class.
Images taken with the D3 reflect exceptional overall quality, broad
tonal range and depth, along with extremely low noise throughout its
normal ISO range of 200 to 6400. By setting the camera to its built-in
options of Lo-1 or Hi-2, the ISO range of the camera can be expanded to
the equivalent of ISO 100 or ISO 25,600 respectively, offering
unmatched versatility in practically any shooting situation. The D3
also features an entirely new 51-point auto focus system with Nikon’s
3D Focus Tracking feature and two new LiveView shooting modes that
allow photographers to frame a photograph using the camera’s
high-resolution LCD monitor. The D3 uses the world’s first Scene
Recognition System to greatly enhance the accuracy of auto focus, auto
exposure and auto white balance detection in the camera by recognizing
the subject or scene being photographed and applying this information
to the calculations for the three functions.
