The D3s is mid-model freshening of the two-year-old Nikon D3.
The D3s is the same camera as the D3, with a few new features thrown in to give it a little more catalog life. No big deal, Nikon has been doing this since the 1980s; adding an -s to a model while adding a couple of new things, like the N4004s, F4s, N8008s, N90s and most recently the D300s.
Nikon's pro DSLRs are on a four-year product cycle, so the D3s freshening is right on target, with a Nikon D4 expected in two more years, in summer 2011.
The Nikon D3, and now the D3s, is an absolutely killer camera for shooting sports and action in any light.
It is my first choice for shooting anything that moves.
The D3s adds:
Video (still with no real autofocus or stereo mic).
Sensor cleaner.
8MP, 1.2x crop (20 x 30mm) mode.
Dedicated Live View button.
Dedicated INFO button (on the wrong side of the camera).
Even stupider stupid-high ISOs to ISO 102,400.
Quiet Mode as first seen on the D5000.
$300 higher price.
Wow.
ISO 102,400 sounds nice, until you realize that I can shoot under moonlight — hand-held — at ISO 6,400. I never have any need for ISO 6,400 indoors, much less anything higher. These stupid-high ISOs are gimmicks and look terrible, at least above ISO 12,800. I shoot everything at ISO 200 - 3,200, which is fast enough.
