Nikon D4S

While it hasn’t been a tip for months — it debuted underneath potion during CES 2014 and underwent margin contrast recently during a Olympics (view some representation images) — Nikon has finally left open with a specs for a new flagship dSLR, a D4S. According to a company, a D4S was a “minor refurbish that incited into more”: a new sensor and ascent to a Expeed 4 processor for improved picture peculiarity and speed, and tweaks to a autofocus settings, video and workflow features, and controls.


Most of a updates I’d systematise as pointed yet nontrivial. Although a sensor stays a same resolution, Nikon’s reworked it in many puzzling ways; total with a new processing, a camera’s now rated adult to ISO 409600, one stop over a predecessor. The D4S now has an automobile ISO environment to concede for automatically preserving unchanging exposures when sharpened video or time lapse; we can now fire adult to 9,999 frames in a latter as well. There’s also a new 12-bit uncompressed tiny tender record size. And a battery life jumps if we switch to a new, higher-capacity EL-EN18a battery, yet it stays concordant with a D4′s EL-EN18. The Ethernet tie gets a speed boost, too, jumping to 1000BaseT.



The usually unequivocally manifest change to a pattern is a some-more durable, textured aspect of a subselector and multiselector joysticks. The front hold is somewhat deeper and there’s a improved hold on behind for straight shooting.

Action photographers get a strike to 11fps detonate sharpened with full autofocus and autoexposure. To residence some of a backfocus complaints of a D4, Nikon has combined a new Group Area AF mode, a moveable 5-point clump of AF points that operates as a singular concentration area, and that a association claims improves concentration when sharpened subjects opposite a bustling background. AF lock-on (tracking) is now some-more sensitive, to theoretically improved close concentration when something passes between camera and subject. Plus there’s a new counterpart resource with reduced slap and counterpart trance time, and a viewfinder supports a ability to say a same relations AF indicate when switching between plane and straight orientations.


For mural photographers, we can use face-detection formed metering in a visual viewfinder, and a customary Picture Control and white change have been tweaked to broach improved skin tones.


Nikon’s increased a video operation, adding a 1080/60p codec and a ability to record concurrently to an outmost recorder around HDMI and to an inner card. It also adds dual audio magnitude operation recording options (which can be altered while recording), Wide Range and Voice Range.

Not a large allege I’m guessing some folks were anticipating for, yet pro cameras tend to follow an every-other-generation vital ascent cycle. And ISO 409600? Well, that will really make for some engaging pixel peeping.
