Engadget Talks Frankly About Nikon’s D3s

Is it fun to watch $5,200 evaporate from your savings account? Hardly. But being able to elevate your game to new heights can only be good — nay, great — for business, and if you’ve had the D3S on your mind, we can’t say a single word to stop you from pulling the trigger. Any minor annoyances that might irk you — the lack of a 1080p movie mode, a smaller-than-desired 12.1 megapixel sensor and the dearth of inbuilt wireless flash support are the only ones that come to mind — pale in comparison to the stellar low-light images you’ll be able to acquire, and we’d surmise that your worries of spending too much on a camera would all but vanish the first time you capture a noise-free, blur-free handheld shot of a couple’s first kiss… at ISO 10,000.
