Nikon D3 Digital Camera Review

Nikon D3 Review

The fact that it was adjudged by the American Photo as Camera of The Year from July/August 2008 speaks something about the Nikon D3. Here are the award winning features that makes this camera worth your money.

At 12.1 megapixels, the Nikon D3 camera utilizes the FX format to deliver stunningly rich photographs that only Nikon cameras can provide. Backed up by the Expeed Image Processing Technology, you can look forward to receiving high quality image.

Its ergonomic design and construction makes the Nikon D3 a durable and long lasting camera. Its magnesium alloy coating protects your camera from invasive moisture, dust, and electromagnetic interference.

The Nikon D3 is the first camera that introduces Live View Shooting options. A choice between hand-held or tripod mode enables you to take pictures in a studio, remote environments, or difficult situations.

Set your camera at continuous shooting mode and you would get 11 frames per second at full resolution without compromising shooting speed. The Nikon D3 allows you to choose various ISO settings from a minimum of 100 (Lo-1) to as high as 25,600 (Hi-2).

While other cameras need to be recharged after a few hundred shots, the Nikon D3 lets you capture those important moments up to an unprecedented 4,700 shots. Likewise, the camera has four self-timer settings with durations of 2, 5, 10 or 20 seconds.

These are just some of the reasons why the Nikon D3 has been highly acclaimed and recognized throughout the world. Indeed, the D3 from Nikon can be a worthwhile investment.
