Nikon

India on Tuesday announced the launch of a new camera to its DSLR

range, the D4S. The new full-frame DSLR has a 16.2-megapixel FX-format

CMOS sensor similar to the D3S. There is however, an interesting range

of advancements on the new camera. Right from offering five AF area

Touted as a serious tool for professional photographers,

the camera has single-point AF, dynamic-area AF, 3D-tracking,

auto-area AF and group-area AF. According to Nikon, this helps ensure

not just smooth and fast autofocusing, but also allows users to shoot at

11fps with AF and AE tracking.


In addition, the D4S features

the Expeed 4 image-processing engine. The ISO range on the Nikon D4S is

from 100-25,600. It has extended sensitivity for as low as ISO 50

to as high as ISO 409,600 in boost mode. In addition, it has an improved

viewfinder, a redesigned grip, 1000BASE-T support for wired LAN

communication, and a RAW S Small setting for post capture editing.
