@Aeris365 Nice!

@Aeris365 nikon said to have 45 af points but only 15 of them its crosstype. you need crosstype sensors to ensure sharp tack focusing shoots. hence, the cnaon 1dmk4 with 39 crosstype would ensure every shoots is sharp tack

who the fuck cares about megapixels?

Nigel is the Jeremy Clarkson of cameras in the sense that both love their subjects, you can tell by the way the talk is not just technique.

12.1MP, 4256×2832, CompactFlash/Microdrive Card Slot – MPN: 25434

Description: The 12.1 effective megapixel D3 SLR Digital Camera features Nikon’s FX-format CMOS sensor, measuring 23.9 x 36mm, which is nearly identical to the size of 35mm film. With the fastest startup time, shortest viewfinder blackout time, and shortest shutter lag of any digital SLR..

yes. but trying to imagine what that crop is going to look like, and then actually cropping it (whilst wasting space on your card for all the extra image you won’t need) as well as not being able to use a DX lens if you need to, is a bit of a pain in the arse.
Then again if you’re spending £4000 why would you bother with APS?
August 11th, 2010 - 21:49
so your old DX lenses work on the new Film FX sensor

Got mine in the post this morning. I havn’t had chance to test it in the field yet but I’ve been messing about in doors and the low light shots are fantastic!!! If they ever manage to improve on this we wont be needing flashguns anymore lol. Awesome camera!
August 11th, 2010 - 22:25
If you have a 300mm lens on the camera, why would you turn the APS mode on to get a ’450mm’ lens? couldn’t you just crop the image from full frame?
August 11th, 2010 - 23:16
Thanks for correctly pronouncing the word Nikon!
August 11th, 2010 - 23:32
rose4usagi….thanks….it happened loads of times and I thought oh no…I’ve got a rogue camera here…especially as the 35-70 zoom lens WAS faulty and had to go back….but you are RIGHT…it WAS the bottom shutter………..
August 12th, 2010 - 00:29
have you checked the bottom shutter button? IT was my problem for a week, I couldn’t understand why it takes photo by itself. then I notice that the bottom shutter button is activated as well.

You should call a priest right away, you may have a poltergeist.
August 12th, 2010 - 01:08
Thanks for that….I bought one a few weeks ago so I’m just playing at the minute….one thing…the camera has functioned strangely a couple of times…taking pictures itself, with no contact made by myself….is this going to be a serious malfunction?…..
August 12th, 2010 - 02:06
11fps!
August 12th, 2010 - 02:20
unless you are planning to print those pictures the size of your livinroom wall anything over 12mp will do the job, 24mp are intended for fashion and anything that will be retouched and printed in comercial way
