Crappy industry-following 720p video.  Stupidly high price.  I feel sorry for the people stuck with Nikons and their stupidly expensive full frame cameras.  Want a decent resolution from your DSLR that can actually crop?  You have to spend like 7-8K for that.  The price for this should be $3k max.  Nikon is going to lose market share from Sony and Canon if they don't start waking up.  It's nice to shoot in the dark but not if your stuck printing 8x10s of your pictures]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[macjonny]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 8:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[I had a print done at 30*20 from an 8MP image from my old 350D and it looks fantastic.

The only reason the camera companies are putting video on their DSLRs is that newspapers/magazines/websites/etc are specifically asking their photographers to also be able to shoot video for the web. That's the way the industry is going and of course Nikon will follow industry trends. 720p is perfectly suited for the web.<br><br>Simply increasing MP isn't a clear cut win-win, or Nikon would have done it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Future Man]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 9:16AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[This camera is perfect for its target customers. News and sports shooters. The D3 has been making massive inroads into the sports shooter world. The last Olympics shows a big migration away from Canon in part because of their inability to make a sports camera that can actually follow focus properly (1D Mark III). Nikon's always had Canon beat in that area. The ergonomics of this camera are going to outclass Canon. Sony's pitiful high ISO performance in comparison makes it an amateur camera. Not to mention their system is years away from being competitive to Nikon and Canon. And Sony is happy to say so. (Not the high ISO pitiful part.)<br><br>The price of this camera is covered in the ruggedness of the body. It's tough as nails and will last as long as you want. The 720p video is perfect for sports and news shooters. It uploads way faster than 1280p. When speed is critical, this camera has no peer.<br><br>I shoot with a 1Ds Mark II and 5D Mark II at work. The former doesn't do video, so I use the 5D Mark II for that. One minute thirteen second clip is 135 megabytes. Imagine shooting a whole football game with some video here and there and it very quickly adds up. When you're sending video to the office, 720 will do the job just fine, and a lot faster. Because the video is likely on TV or going online. And that kind of resolution is just fine for those applications. <br><br>You want to shoot feature films? Get a Red Epic.<br><br>I do documentary/journalism around the world. I could be 1900 meters underground in emerald mines in Colombia where the humidity is 99 percent and the temperature is 125º F. This is the perfect camera for me. No flash, no protective cover, tough as nails, and extremely reliable. And it makes gorgeous photos. I shoot 16 gigs of photos a day when I'm on the road. I'd be more than happy with a 12 megapixel camera that can make prints way bigger than I need.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Eric]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 11:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[LOL @ Sony]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dano]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 12:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Digital-SLR/25466/D3S.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Digital-SLR/25466/D3S.html</a><br><br><br>Nikon USA has many sample images including a series of shots done at ISO 12,800. at the above address.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zoom30]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 9:32AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[Lame. 5K+ for a camera I was hoping would have a switchable 720/1080P mode that shot in RAW format for it's video.

If they didn't change much (and they really haven't), what's the extra $200 for?  This is basically a D3 with a different-same sensor with a bump in sensitivity, and [a 720p] movie mode.  It seems these incremental improvements are costing us more, incrementally.  What's up with that?  There is ZERO incentive to upgrade to this from a D3 at this point -- and if I didn't have one, there's no point in spending an extra $200 for a movie mode I don't use and an extra stop in [effective] ISO.  If I didn't have one, I'd rather get a D3 and put the almost $1000 I'd save (from getting a D3s) on a good lens.  12,800 probably looks awesome, but 102,400 is uneccessary.  There is no need --- there has never been a need to shoot at sensitivities that high, save for the ability to say you can I'm guessing.  They keep talking about how awesome it would be - almost "night vision" quality.  For what?  There is no photographer that will shoot at a sensitivity that high in the dark, for anything making him money (except news guys, maybe).  But for an extra $200, you're really not doing us any favors Nikon.  I'm not impressed.  I'd be more impressed if the D3x came with dust removal...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[fotoJoe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 10:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[YOU don't need ISO 102,400. That doesn't mean nobody needs it. And from the photo I saw, it's pretty noisy. But that also means ISO 12,800 will be like the D3 at 6400 I'm betting. And 12,800 will get you barely usable shutter speeds at many high school football or basketball games. <br><br>There are lots of places I could have used that kind of speed in my career. So speak for yourself. I'll take every bit of light-gathering mojo it has. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Eric]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 11:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nikon's D3S officially announced, previewed extensively]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/nikons-d3s-officially-announced-previewed-extensively/</guid><description><![CDATA[Apparently some people are not to thrilled that the video relies on "Motion JPEG".
