NIKON AIMS HIGH WITH A NEW DIGITAL SLR D3X 24.5MP

BARCELONA, 1 december 2008.

The rumors on the imminent appearance of a new Nikon’s new D-SLR have been very intense since photokina up to now. All the internet forums about photo-futurology announced for weeks something big from Nikon. Some of them even showed photos of the new camera from Nikon. Today Nikon has put an end to all the rumors unveiling a new digital camera: the D3x 24mp. What will Nikon do next? For a question of pure logic since already has gone quite time that it is in selling the next step must be the D300 renovation. PMA-2009?


Nikon's new FX-format digital SLR combines 24.5 megapixels of stunning resolution and image quality with the renowned handling of the D3.

D3x FEATURES:


The D3X achieves resolution comparable to medium-format cameras with an entirely new level of operating ease. It's perfect for the broadest range of detailed work, from fashion and product shootings, to weddings, architecture, landscapes and large poster production. And it shares the robust body structure of the D3, for superior mobility and operation in virtually any shooting environment, indoors or out.
The D3X employs a new Nikon FX-format CMOS sensor with 24.5 effective megapixels covering an area of 35.9 x 24.0 mm to achieve truly amazing resolution. What's more, we've optimized the pixel characteristics to provide a higher S/N ratio and wider dynamic range by securing a greater amount of light received by each pixel, thereby reducing lost highlights and shadows, and ensuring smoother tone reproduction with minimized noise.
At normal setting, the D3X offers a wide range of sensitivity — from ISO 100, suitable for stroboscopic setting in studio shoots, to ISO 1600. It realizes superior image quality with less noise at ISO 1600 as well as at low sensitivity settings. What's more, the sensitivity range can be increased by two stops (up to ISO 6400 equivalent) and decreased by one stop (down to ISO 50 equivalent), offering an even greater diversity of shooting possibilities. Auto sensitivity control is also available.
Just like the D3, the D3X achieves a start-up time of 0.12 second*1 and a shutter release time lag of 0.04 second*3*4. It delivers a continuous shooting speed of approx. 5 frames per second in FX format (36 x 24) or 5:4 (30 x 24), and 7 frames per second in DX format (24 x 16)*4*5. Also, the D3X is fully compatible with UDMA, the new-generation high-speed card that enables 35 MB recording equivalent to the D3. The D3X is capable of recording approx. 7.1 MB (JPEG, image size L, NORMAL) of data captured in FX format at speeds of approx. 5 frames per second.
