a first class professional grade camera.image quality is magnificent.with the right type of glass,it becomes an excellent performer in any photography situation you can imagine.im sure the newer models with more buttons might be better,but i challenge anyone to prove it on a print,or computer moniter.

Nikon D3 FX 12.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) - includes Mack 3-Year Diamond Warranty The D3 is a solid built, on the heavy side, intuitive camera. I prefer the heavy feel, I disliked the light plastic, cheap feel of so many of the cheaper SLRs. I owned the Minolta 7D before which is a very good camera, but cant compare to the D3. I was told the D3 was such a complex camera from a friend that read a review, that you couldnt just take it out of the box and take pictures. I disagree. If you can charge a battery, and read the quick start section, this camera can take good pictures almost by itself. Your only task is to read the quick start, which makes sure some of the buttons, default, have not been moved. You point and push a button, if all the buttons, and little switches have not been moved you take a good shot. I know my experience with the Minolta helped but I was taking pictures within 10 to 15 minutes. A complete novice would have to take more time. I understood many of the control dials and settings and loved the positioning and feel of the controls. To take what I hope is great shots, will take more time and effort, this camera can do so many things. I couldnt believe that when using an ISO setting of 3200 you could see the object and as clear as you can see it. The shutter lag to me compared to my film camera is none existent, couldnt tell the difference. Couple this camera with the famous renouned Nikon lenses and you have in my opinion an unbeatable combination. I know Nikon will probably come out in a few years with a camera of same caliper with more pixel count. My only wish is that the D3 had a few more pixel count but I dont know why. I think I have been brian washed with pixels, because when I print the pictures on my wide Epson Epson Stylus Pro 4800 Color Inkjet Printer the results are amazing. I would highly recommend this camera to those that are Pros or like me a serious want to be Pro who has been taking pictures for almost 50 of my 58 years.

As advertised there were some cosmetic blemishes and small things that I expected and can live with but for the price the camera so far has been all I could ask for. Thanks Amazon !

What can one say about this great camera that hasnt already been said? Well I think its the sexiest thing that Nikon has done since the F2 (with of course photomic head :-) ), and I had one of those back in the day. Indeed as an experiment I put an old f1.8 50 mm lens from around 1972 that used to be on that F2 from time to time onto the D3, told the D3 its focal length and max aperture, and it worked perfectly! Focusing it was even easier! Finally I can use all my old 35mm Nikkors and DX lenses as well as new ones (eat your heart out Canon :-) ). A great camera.
