Abstract: Nikon stays true to the ‘big pixel' philosophy of the original D3, and gives the D4 a set of upgraded features that are more significant in practice than they look on paper.Just about every element of the D4 is either new or upgraded – the bodyshell, the ...

Excellent shooting performance. Video implementation, including manual audio control, is great. Versatile connectivity options. Impeccable image quality, particularly at low ISO levels. Redesigned elements make all the difference to the experience
