It's a Nikon...need I say more???
There is little I can say that will do this camera justice. Simply stated, it's the camera to end all cameras. Being a 20-year experienced amateur photo hound, there isn't anything I would change about this camera. What I like most is the max 1/8000th sec shutter speed and 6400+ ASA/ISO equivalent film speed. You can let the camera do everything....OR....YOU can do EVERYTHING....or anywhere in between. I've had this camera for about a month now, and I've already sold some of my work with it t ....

d-3 great-where it came from not so
The D-3 Nikon has been great. The thing I'm concerned about was the box had been opened, the camera seemed to have been used and strap was missing. Although Amazon was able to correct the problem of the strap quite quickly and the camera seems to be fine, we are talking about a $5000.00 camera, somebody should have checked....Thanks....Rob Mueller. ....

amazing DSLR
Used my D3 for 8 months now and couldn't be happier. This camera is an amazing piece of technology.
Bought my first film camera, Canon F-1 in 1985, shot thousands of pics on film and slide. Four years ago I bought my first DSLR, Fuji S7000, shot thousands of pics with it. Then I made the giant leap to Nikon D3. WOW! This camera is in a league all its own.
Performs even better than expected. The array of custom settings boggles the mind. After shooting over a thousand images I'm stil .... Read more

Not about the camera - It's the glass that counts
We (my wife and I) have been using Nikon cameras and glass since the early '70s. Over the years we have accumulated a good collection of glass and while we recognized we would have to migrate from film eventually, we hesitated (actually resisted) because of the value of our glass. You who understand such things can emphathize.
When the FX D3 was announced we rented one for a week and shot about 1800 shots using our legacy AI and AI-S lenses (16mm, 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 105mm, 135 .... Read more

Awesome !!!!!!!
I won't post any techincal details on this camera, since others have done so. I purchased my D3 along with a D700. So far both performs exceptionally well and one compliments each other as a perfect pair. I had a Mark III and 5D as a pair before and decided to make the jump to Nikon after testing a D3 earlier this year. Don't get me wrong 5D is still one of my favorite cameras. But its long overdue for some updates.
Only suggestion to Nikon is to have a self cleaning sensor to the c .... Read more
