The Best SLR I have owned.......2007-12-25

I recently sold my Canon 1DS Mark2 and the accompaning 14 mm wide angle lenses because after trying out a Nikon D3 I found the Nikons pictures so much better. True, the Canon software is easier but to me the ergonomics of the D3 are better than the Canon 1DS Mark2 while the detail, clarity and accuracy are still better. Even 24" poster comparisons between both camera's have the Nikon winning in every detail. I am now a proud Nikon owner I think although Canon has more pixels 16.3 versus 12.1 the pictures at large a simply not as good. I perform operative photography and am in the process of finishing a book on Female Reconstructive surgery this is were the comparisons became for my field so much more apparent. The colors for the Nikon are just so much more dynamic and precise while the Canon is not as vibrant and demonstrative of detail. I found for comparisons sake that the Canon videocamcorder XL H1 colors versus the Sony comparable model to again lack color precision, depth of field and to simply to the less experienced eye to lack quality needed for surgeons. So I am now going to start to build a Nikkor lens assortment. By the way I took 20000 with my Canon so I know its downside well under all conditions. The Canon was sturdy and never a problem but its performance is only 80 percent of the Nikon and Nikkor lens

Nikon's Best Digital SLR Ever Made.......2007-12-22

While Nikon may not win top prize in the full-frame digital sensor department with its new Nikon D3 (12.1MP vs. 21.1MP in the new Canon EOS 1DS Mark III), it still wins ample praise for being a full-frame sensor digital SLR camera that's quite capable of lowlight photography with lenses that are moderately high to very high contrast and resolution (I am referring of course to Nikon's current line of autofocus Nikkors optimized for both digital and film photography, and also, the brand new Carl Zeiss ZF manual focusing lenses which can be used on every Nikon SLR camera made since 1959, when the Nikon F mount was introduced.). This is a very rugged, quite dependable, camera that is capable of 9 frame-per-second bursts and an ISO range up to 25,000, coupled to an extremely sophisticated 51-zone AF system (There is also an impressive-looking 3-inch LCD monitor located on the camera back, that's capable of almost instantaneous live-view.). In short, this is the dream camera for any professional or serious amateur photographer who was seeking a rugged, full-frame sensor digital SLR camera from Nikon.

I was extremely delighted with how well it handled, when I tried it over at the 2007 Photo Plus East Nikon booth back in late October. Much to my amazement, this camera was unusually quieter than what I've expected from most digital SLR cameras. It truly felt that this is a camera that could run virtually by itself in some kind of autopilot mode. However, I was especially impressed with how easily I could use it without resorting to a camera manual, as though the camera itself was an intuitive accessory permanently attached to my body. If I had any doubts about this camera's capabilities, they were soon dispelled after I saw photographer Joe McNally's slideshow presentation demonstrating how hard he put this camera through its paces during a nocturnal photo shoot in Times Square. My only regret is that I couldn't march off to the Zeiss USA booth and request an instant loan of several Zeiss ZF lenses to try with this camera; however, I am quite optimistic that this combination would have yielded some spectacular images. I am also willing to wager that this brand new Nikon digital SLR camera will soon acquire a legion of fans, who will be quite interested in its extensive abilities, starting, of course, with its full-frame digital sensor.

Product Description

The 12.1 effective megapixel D3 features Nikon's new FX-format (Full Frame) CMOS sensor, measuring 23.9 x 36mm — virtually identical to the size of 35mm film. This makes possible higher ISO sensitivity, wider dynamic tonal range and offers the same relationship between picture angle and depth-of-field that were the hallmarks of the 35mm film format. With the fastest startup 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. Nikon's self-diagnostic shutter system, tested to 300,000 cycles, is evidence of its advanced engineering and durable construction. Picture Control settings give photographers dramatically advanced color control with 4 preset options — Standard, Neutral, Vivid and Monochrome, as well as 9 customizable settings. Standout features include: 3" VGA LCD Screen; 51-Point Auto Focus; dual CompactFlash storage; USB, HDMI, and Video Output; auto and manual exposure modes with 3D matrix metering; plus two LiveView shooting modes. Its electronically controlled vertical-travel focal-plane shutter has speeds from 1/8,000 to 30s in steps of 1/3, 1/2, 1 EV, and Bulb. The Nikon D3 is graced with an impressive list of compatible lenses: 1) Type G or D AF Nikkor Lenses (excluding IX-Nikkor) — all functions supported; 2) DX AF Nikkor Lenses — all functions supported except FX-format; 3) AF Nikkor other than type G or D Lenses (excluding F3AF lenses) — all functions supported except 3D Color Matrix Metering; 4) AI-P Nikkor Lenses — all functions supported except AF and 3D Color Matrix Metering; 5) Non-CPU AI Nikkor Lenses — can be used in exposure modes A and M. The Nikon D3 is the professional camera which fulfills the promise that digital has always held for the future of photography; with the Nikon D3 that future just clicked.

Product Description

Experience the fascination of nature at close range with LEICA APO-TELEVID 77 spotting scope: one look through the true-color, high-magnification and high-performance spotting scope is enough for an expert observer to discern very distinctly what remains concealed for others. If you are interested in observing the world of plants and animals more intensely, for longer periods of time and with greater magnification than that provided by binoculars, you should become more familiar with the LEICA APO-TELEVID high-performance spotting scope. It guarantees brilliant viewing from daybreak well into twilight, and it brings out even the smallest details accurately and distinctly. The number "77" in the name of the spotting scopes refers to the diameter of the front objective lens in millimeters. Your enthusiasm could be great with the APO-TELEVID 77. LEICA APO-TELEVID is a non-cemented, 3-element, apochromatic system. Its high-grade fluorite-containing optical glasses have very high light transmission qualities, and they do not produce any color fringes. With this highly corrected spotting scope, you can discern even the tiniest details of the subject with absolute color fidelity and outstanding resolution, from the center to the very edges of the field of view. And this down to a range of 3.95 m, or less than 12, 9 ft.
