Focus acquisition is stunningly quick with a variety of Nikon AF lenses"
|
|
|
"

wide angle users will find the camera appealing since their lenses will shoot at their true wide angle focal length, allowing them to get close to large subjects and still keep most of the subject in the frame"
|
|
|
"
|
"full frame" 12.1 megapixel sensor that is nearly identical in size to 35mm film"
|

All we can say is that this camera lets you take photos that were once unthinkable, such as capturing detail inside a dimly lit Buddist temple at 1/250 sec and f/8, or freezing a ballet dancer in flight without blinding her with flash."
|
|
|
"
|
we can't tell you how acceptable the noise was in those images -- impossible to take otherwise -- shot at the D3's maximum ISO of 25,600."
|
|
|
|
"
|
Excellent resolution rating"
|
|
|
"
|
Most impressive, in our experience, was how the AF locked onto dimly lit objects"
|
|
|
"
|
a new shutter, made of a Kevlar/carbon-fiber composite, leads the DSLR pack with its 300,000-cycle rating."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"
|
The D3 handles highlights well and has great dynamic range which is especially evident in the shot of red tomatoes"
|
|
|
"
|
The ISO performance improvement alone makes the D3 a hugely tempting proposition"
|
|
|
|
"
|
a camera that features enough resolution, speed and image quality to make it perfect for almost all kinds of photographers"
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
"
|
the white balance icons are too small, though, and not so easy to see in bad light."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"
|
very good ISO 1600 images and usable ISO 3200 images"
|
|
|
"
|
As a result, “lost highlights” and are well compensated while maintaining proper contrast"
|
|
|
|
"
|
Nikon has some algorithm to compress the highlight data such that the difference is not easily detectable by human vision"
|
|
|
"
|
The D3 has a large and bright viewfinder that shows 100% of the image"
|
|
|
"
|
full frame sensor"
|
|
|
|
"
|
very good ISO 1600 images and usable ISO 3200 images"
|

|
"
|
I can get good color rendition in any crappy lighting, even under orange high-pressure sodium street lights, due to the astoundingly large range of accommodation of the manual PREset (gray card) white balance."
|

|
"
|
great color"
|

|
|
|
|
"
|
The dummy auto AF-area selector mode (white rectangle on the selector) works great"
|
|
|
"
|
I've never seen a better finder than the one in my D3"
|
|
|
"
|
Wider Angles Than Any Other Pro DSLR System"
|
|
|
|
"
|
It's big, bright and sharp"
|
|
|
"
|
the larger 3" LCD screen is nice"
|
|
|
"
|
Thus I can shoot a thing in one position, and completely without menus, just turn the knob a click to get to my milder color settings for people"
|
|
|
|
"
|
ISO 12,500 can be grainy, and ISO 25,600 is downright loaded with red dots, but still usable when you need it"
|
|
|
"
|
Auto ISO is still partially defective in manual exposure mode"
|
|

"
|
applying any of the modifications to an image results in the creation of a new image; your original is always left untouched."
|
|
|

|
the fastest shutter response of any Nikon digital SLR camera to date, a scant 37 milliseconds."
|
|
|

excellent focus discrimination when focusing manually"
