Nikon D3X Review and Sample Images

Picking up the camera, it would come as no surprise when we say that it feels almost identical to the Nikon D3. With the same layout of buttons and connections, the size and weight is also identical. Ok… the Nikon D3X is actually 20g lighter at 1,220g, if you want to be precise. Regardless, you are not likely to be able to tell much difference between the two cameras just by looking at them. The Nikon D3X basically handles just as well as the Nikon D3. The Shutter response as well as auto-focusing is the same. The balance of the camera is good and you will find that it’s a pleasure to use.


Looking the specifications (and price tag) of the Nikon D3X, it is obvious that Nikon are positioning it in line with the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III. For a long time until recently, professionals who needed a high megapixels full frame camera were only given the choice of the 1Ds Mark III unless they went medium format. Nikon is obviously eager to cut into this market now that they are selling full frame cameras. With the Canon 1Ds Mark III released just over a year ago, we would obviously expect Nikon to come up with something that could show up the Mark III.
