Well yes other cameras will autofocus at f/8 also, it's just that the autofocus is not reliable enough under all lighting conditions to be officially supported. If the D4 and D800 work as...

In all seriousness, if you are talented at sales, you can parlay $600 into the $6000 cost of a D4. There is a guy who was started out with one red paperclip, and eventually ended up with a...

Well, I remember when Canon shocked the market by releasing the first sub 1000 dollar DSLR camera, the original digital Rebel. It shot at about 3 frames per second, had a pathetic buffer, and it...

ISO 6400 is about my limit with the D7000, so I guess that Nikon does a good job of rating the ISO range accurately. High 1 and high 2 are sort of there for emergency use. The D4 on the other...

You're a better man than I am if you can see a difference. I'm not saying that a difference does not exist, I'm just saying it is indiscernible to me. -- www.southfloridapics.com

Sounds like you want a D700 or maybe a slightly updated D700. Personally I love the ergonomics of D + single digit bodies, but i would only use them professionally. For travel or fun I prefer...

DSLR cameras are sold at low margins, but they are not subsidized. The real profit comes from lenses and accessories like $600 battery grips and $550 flash guns. -- www.southfloridapics.com

The dynamic range and color are above anything I have seen with digital. -- www.southfloridapics.com

For architecture I think you will actually be able to make use of that resolution. Landscapes even more so. -- www.southfloridapics.com

I guess he got confused by the 'fixed aperture' thing. You can also call it a 'constant aperture' lens. Examples would be the Nikon 14-24, 24-70, 70-200VR. Basically with these lenses you can...

Large sensor cameras generally do not have a very good autofocus during video capture. Expect to use manual focus, although maybe in bright light for 'home movie' type usage you might be ok with...

I admit that I am not terribly concerned with sharpness, but I still prefer shooting with fixed aperture lenses. Why? Well, I shoot in manual mode. I want to be able to zoom to different focal...

I want them to, but I don't think they will. They are going to make us pay $6k for the D4 sensor. -- www.southfloridapics.com

I prefer the smaller (and easier to work with) files and better high ISO performance. I also like the extra 'software zoom' for video. The only thing I don't like is the $6k price tag. As a...

I do ok with a D7000. I mean I'm not shooting editorials for Vogue, but I am booked solid for the next month (which for me, is good), and I have managed to land work for some pretty solid...

They did one of these with the D7000 and it was also very difficult to tell the difference. The reason is simple, ISO 3200 is not high enough to stress the advantages of the D4's super low light...

Well, a lot of people won't let a little thing like 'not being able to afford it' stop them. I see people living above their means all the time. They'll just put it on credit and hope for the best....

On closer examination, I now think the D4 may actually offer a 0.5 stop advantage over the D3s at ISO 25,600 and above. -- www.southfloridapics.com

Kudos. That is undeniably one of the best reasons to hold off. I know some people buy cameras on credit, but I don't recommend that unless you have a big assignment coming up that absolutely...

So Nikon recommends their most expensive lenses, what a surprise. The 50 1.4 is only $500, so they won't recommend that. The PC-E lenses are manual focus, and have a learning curve, so it would...
