Well, we just got the first round of Nikon D3S previews this morning, but it looks like we now also have the first few sample videos shot with the camera -- possibly a bit ahead of Nikon's preferred schedule. While it's a bit hard to draw some firm conclusions due to their YouTube-ness (not even a "High Quality" version, unfortunately), the videos do go some way towards backing up claims that the camera truly delivers the goods when it comes to high ISO shooting -- something that's particularly evident in the stunning wildlife video shot by Vincent Munier (pictured above). Head on past the break to check it out for yourself, along with a second, also impressive short shot down under.

Yep its still a wobble cam, check out 4:34 in the Aussie clip, when the bull goes past the gate/fence takes a hit and you can see the vertical lines in the game bend as they go backwards.
The camera is a nice little step forward for Nikon and I love the fact they are not trying to push past 12MP in the non X models (much prefer clean 12MP than dirty 18MP) but Canon are still clearly leading with video in DSLRs.
I'll wait for at least a D4 to upgrade my D3 for photography, or whatever model it is that finally offers the video features of the 7D in a Nikon body.
Time to sell the car.... the house.... the child....
