Nikon’s top of the range pro D3 camera body has just had an upgrade. The D3S has a number of new features such as a new sensor with even more high quality low light capabilities. Probably the most interesting thing about Nikon’s newest pro body is the fact that it now supports 720p video. Bit disappointing that they didn’t go all the way to 1080p. Although using a DSLR as a video camera is not as simple and as using a camcorder, if you can get it right, the results are amazing. As I have written before, we are fast approaching a time when all DSLR’s will support video. This will be a challenging time for videographers and photographers alike as each skill set blends into one.
Some of Nikon’s promo sample videos taken with the D3S have already hit the web, take a look:
Not as good as my new Canon Rebel T1i :D
Hi Rob,
Now you will have to post some video from Canon Rebel to show us all how good it is! Is the Rebel T1i the same as the 7D in Europe?
