About this product

Product Information

This Nikon D3s 12.1 MP Digital SLR camera is a high-quality digital camera that captures your memories with professional, high-resolution quality. With a plethora of options and highly customizable modes, these digital cameras produce amazing high-quality photo and video results. The D3s DSLR body-only camera is compatible with a multiplicity of lens options. The camera body is made with Nikon's proprietary F lens mounting technology. The level of diversity makes it easy for you to select the perfect lens combination for every occasion. Not only that, but the backward compatibility of this mount gives you access to optics created as far back as 1960. To sweeten the pot, many third-party lenses are available, as well. Many of these are weather sealed, so you can plan on boldly taking this camera wherever you go. The Nikon digital camera funnels the images to a very capable CMOS image sensor. This full frame sensor gives you a satisfying 12 megapixels at a max resolution of 4256 by 2832 pixels. This level of power and detail will produce exceptional photographic quality. The Nikon imaging system includes large, 3-inch TFT color LCD screen on the rear of the camera for you to frame your next shot. This fixed screen delivers 921,000 dots and boasts Live View capabilities. The D35 also gives you the option of viewing your subjects through a pentaprism viewfinder with 100% coverage. Both the LCD screen and the viewfinder allow you to get a detailed view of your targets before snapping pictures, enhancing your end results. The image quality, white balance, and dynamic range of this digital camera are superb. Boasting 0.7x magnification, the Nikon D3s allows you to identify fine details in your productions. This camera will impress with its exceptional array of photography features. You'll enjoy its shutter speed capabilities, which range from 30s to 1/8000s. This allows you to capture sharp images of moving targets, including athletes at sporting events and live performers. These digital cameras also give you fine control over the brightness of your images, unlocking your creativity. The Nikon D3s features continuous shooting capabilities of up to 11 frames per second. In addition, you're afforded manual control over exposure at the touch of a button, certainly a big plus. What's more, the external flash feature enables you to properly illuminate your subjects, and a 1/250s flash sync coordinates timing. This well-made Nikon is no slouch in the video arena. You'll appreciate the 1280 by 720 pixel resolution at 24 fps. Connecting with other devices is easy with the built-in HDMI and USB 2.0 ports on this camera body. The Nikon D3s provides a range of useful flash options, including Front Curtain, Rear, Red-Eye, and Slow Sync mode. In addition, a 4,200 shot battery life allows you to go long periods without recharging. Not only will this improve your productivity, but it will allow you to be ready to spring into action when that perfect shot appears. These features are encased in a very sturdy, environmentally sealed chassis body. Whether you want to shoot indoors or out in the wilderness, this camera has you covered.

    A fantastic camera: reliable, well built, high-performance, superb image capture and still relevant!!

    If reliability and performance stand at the top of your list, the "ancient" Nikon D3s is an amazing camera. Yes, it's heavy, but that weight helps steady my hold when using long lenses [200 mm, 300mm, e.g.]. The RAW files are good for enlargements up to 16x20 inches [with post-processing]. The low-light performance is excellent. And I can use just about all my Nikkor lenses [AI, AI-S, manual, e.g.]. Yes, the new crop of high-end DSLRs and mirrorless cameras can be all the rage, but if your interest lies primarily with photography, you'll have more than enough features on the D3s to keep you ahead of the game, whether amateur or professional. However, you still have to do your part and understand the fundamentals of taking a good photograph.

    Nikon D3s - still rocking it!

    I bought this camera because I needed something with the voice memo feature. I was going to get a D4s, but the price on this was just too good to pass up. This camera still rocks! The image quality is great, and it's still one of the top high ISO performers on the market. Where it falls behind is shutter noise, and low light AF, which, while still good, isn't exactly cutting edge. Let me be clear, I'm a pixel-peeping professional who also shoots a D800 and a D750. I've also extensively used loaner D810, D4s and D5 from NPS. So when I tell you the D3s is still a relevant camera, you can take it to the bank.

    Very Useful D3

    The Nikon D3S is just what I needed to shoot poorly lit subjects. The high ISO performance gives me higher shutter speeds when I can't use flash to freeze moving subjects. And working with ambient light indoors becomes much easier. The noise levels at high ISO are manageable in post processing, focusing and metering are excellent and the file size is big enough for large prints if you limit cropping. I use this with a D3X for consistent handling between the two bodies. Excellent kit.

    phenomenal camera for predictable results

    In one word " a fantastic " camera. I bought the D3s for its ability to take pictures un low and difficult light and the D3s is unsurpassed in this area. This camera surpasses the my D700 by a wide margin on virtually all fronts. Yes The D3s is heavy, but handles very well and is superb in balance and can tolerate the stresses of long and heavy lenses. I also love how smooth the shutter action is, it makes for great hand held pictures at slow shutter speeds. The area where I see improvement is in the interface and menu layout, they are extensive but not very intuitive. I love this camera.

    A strong, reliable workhorse

    Released in 2009, it was ground-breaking at the time, and is still a strong, reliable workhorse. I have newer, better bodies, but I do some work that just requires a solid performer that can handle lots of clicks. The D3s shines for that work. For the price on the used market these days, the D3s is a bargain considering what it can deliver. Fast AF, good in low light, 9 FPS, and just keeps on going ... and going.
