Nikon D3s-Let’s Give Lola a Warm Welcome

Nikon D3s

So I’ve been waiting over TWO months for this camera, Nikon D3s, that’s been sold out throughout the United States.  It’s the hottest camera in the market right now.  I actually lost sleep over this camera.  No joke!  A few nights ago when I found out I was getting this camera, I slept two hours that evening.  I immediately next day aired this camera!!  I jumped out of bed and screamed, “It’s here!!!!” when the stork knocked on my front door this morning.  I opened the box gingerly with surgeon like hands.  The box glowed in my face when I first laid eyes on her.  I also posted pictures of it on Facebook.  I’ve been asking people to help me name her.  Tam Magdaleno nailed it when she came up with the name Lola.  It just sounds soooooo SEXY!!!!  So everyone, say hello to baby Lola!!!

Giant and I took her out this evening after the sun went down for a nice stroll.  Baby Lola is NOT afraid of the dark.  In fact, she screamed out to me BEGGING me to take her out!  Like a good mother, I do as I’m told.  Want to see the damage Lola did tonight?

Image below was shot handheld at 1/10 of a second at f/1.4 ISO 12,800

shot handheld-1/10 of a second at f1.4 ISO 12,800

Image below was shot handheld at 1/80 of a second at f/1.4 ISO 16,000.  It was practically pitch black here.

Image below was shot handheld at 1/60 of a second at f/1.4 ISO 10,000

Do you have a challenge for me?  Leave a comment below and tell me what you would like for me to shoot.  I’m sure this will make baby Lola VERY HAPPY!!!!  I also want to add that NONE of these pictures has been altered or retouch.  It came straight out of the camera looking like this.  Baby Lola’s beaming right now.  Heheheh

Hi Melissa, Had mine a while from first batch in Uk, I got lucky…..Try it with a video LED only at night/dusk on poryrait…Before with my D3 I had shot at below 1/80 at ISO 2500 to get good results. The D3s you get same results at 1/125 at 1200 iso… Clean image

Just amazing camera, I thinking of getting another as my D3x feels useless in 90% of cases (Unless in studio when everything is controlled). I know its horses for courses… I lost sleep also before it arrived sad yes LOL

Enjoy look forward to seeing even more great work from you ….

Wondering how well it would perform using a larger black area? What if you photographed black walled area with very dark or almost black subjects (black cat or black locomotive) to see how the noise would display. Very nice shots!
