Nikon has finally announced its new flagship professional DSLR Nikon D4<\/a><\/strong> (official announcement here<\/a>). By now you would of found out what are the general specs on the new Nikon D4. If not check it out here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

If you are already convinced to get the Nikon D4, you can pre-order yours here with  B&H<\/a>. On paper,  here is a spec comparison between the Nikon D4 vs the D3s:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n

These are all very nice specs on paper, but how are they related to the improvements made on the ergonomic design, processors, metering system and the brains behind the magnesium alloy body ?<\/p>\n

The first aspect you will notice differently on the D4 is its ergonomic design. First, the red strip on the Nikon D4 has taken a transformation, it is now much slimmer and no longer has a triangular shape. Nikon loses the C\/S\/M switch and replaced with a simplified AF\/M switch instead. <\/font><\/p>\n

The hot shoe\/eye piece \u201chump\u201d has a better contour shape (more blended in) similar to the Canon design. On the D3s, the \u201c hump\u201d feels like something sticking out, but now it is much more contoured.<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Most ergonomic changes are located at the back. Nikon finally has added a dedicated zoom out button which solved what I hated most on the D3s, I had to hold the zoom button and use the dial to zoom out. The AE-L\/AF-L button is now replaced by a mini multi selector for quick selection of  AF points, as well as video and mic buttons are added to the back panel. A noticeable change to the button layout is the second set of  AF-ON and mini multi selector for shooting in portrait orientation (see image below from engadget). The vertical hold is also now more secure with a newly added thumb grip and an extended grip area for the fingers.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Metering mode selector used to be on the right hand side of the eye piece is now located as one of the three top left side buttons. Located next to the shutter-release button, there is a dedicated recording start button<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The shutter button is also placed at a more convenient angle so your finger is in a more relax position. The metering switch has been removed as mentioned above.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Nikon D4 is packed with a lot of interfaces – gigabit LAN port, earphone and mic inputs, HDMI port,  USB port and WT-5 port. With the use of LAN port, you can now use studio monitors and computers to control your shooting. The HDMI port allows the D4 to be connected to a larger LCD for viewing instead of using the 3.2\u201d LCD. WT-5 wireless transmitter has made a significant change, it  has deviated from using USB interface and its size has been made much smaller, so expect much simpler and faster operations.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nikon D4 is equipped with a newly designed 16.2 MP CMOS FX format image sensor<\/strong>. Each pixel is as large as 7.3 \u00b5m, and is engineered to collect the maximum amount of light and render the highest possible image quality in both bright and dark conditions. The D4 allows user to shoot with four image area options: FX format (36.0 x 23.9 mm), 5:4 crop (29.9 x 23.9 mm), 1.2x crop (29.9 x 19.9 mm) and DX format (23.4 x 15.5 mm).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The EXPEED 3 Processor<\/strong> first introduced in Nikon 1 system is also adopted in the Nikon D4.  I am sure it will also be adopted in the Nikon D800. The EXPEED 3 is responsible for delivering outstanding system performance, high-speed processing, fast phase detection autofocus and the fastest data transfer rates.<\/p>\n

Even when shooting in dim lighting at high ISO sensitivities, the camera’s  noise reduction lowers noise without degrading image sharpness. Its massive, high-speed 16-bit image processing delivers smooth gradation and retain tone and detail.<\/p>\n

The D4 provides low-noise performance at ISO 12800 and extends the range one EV further, compared with that of the D3S, making ISO 100 standard<\/p>\n

EXPEED 3 has been optimized for video as well, rendering movie with reduced moir\u00e9, false colours and "jaggies."<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Advance Scene recognition system with 91K pixel RGB sensor<\/strong>  is the new standard in the D4 compares to the traditional 1,005 pixel RGB sensor used in the D3s. <\/p>\n

This advance 91K pixel RGB sensor allows accurate autofocus, auto exposure, i-TTL flash, Active D-Lighting and auto white balance result. Improve face detection is also made possible when shooting with the optical viewfinder even at up to 10 FPS.<\/p>\n

The advance face detection in D4 will automatically recognize human faces and in the case where contrast lighting situation occurs, better auto exposure and enhanced i-TTL balanced fill flash are achieved.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Nikon D4 retains 51 AF points<\/strong>, but with AF detection as low as \u20132 EV which is approximately the physical limit of human visibility through an optical viewfinder. This simply says, the D4 will be able to AF at the darkest place possible. <\/p>\n

Refer to diagrams below:<\/p>\n

(1) All 51 AF points of the D4 are usable with every AF NIKKOR lens of f\/5.6 or faster. Of the 51 AF points, 15 are cross typed sensors in the central viewfinder area.<\/p>\n

(2) Nine central cross type focus points and three points to the left and right of them in the middle line are compatible with aperture slower than f\/5.6 and faster than f\/8<\/p>\n

(3) Five central focus points (1 cross typed sensor) and three points to the left and right of them in the middle line are compatible with f\/8.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

                          (1) Compatible with f\/5.6                                                (2) Compatible with f\/5.6 -f\/8                                                  (3) Compatible with f\/8            <\/p>\n

             <\/p>\n

The D4 can record 1080p Full HD video<\/strong> at 30\/25 or 24p in H.264\/MPEG-4 AVC format. Maximum recording time for a single clip is 29 min. 59 s. This is due to a limitation set to differentiate between cameras and video camcorders. This is much more superior to the D3s which only offers up to 720p\/24 recording.<\/p>\n

With the D4, there are three Full HD video modes: FX-based, DX-based or 1,920 x 1,080 crop movie format. The 1920 x 1090  crop mode effectively is a 2.7x crop of the picture angle for an even stronger telephoto effect while maintain full 1080p HD standard.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The D4 is equipped with two card slots<\/strong>, one for a CF card compatible with UDMA 7 and another for the XQD memory card. The XQD memory media is capable of capturing up to approximately 100 frames in RAW format in continuous shooting mode. This is an outstanding speed.<\/p>\n

The newly announced Sony XQD memory card is said to achieve stable continuous shooting of RAW images and blazing fast data transfer rates of up to 1Gbps\/125MB\/s write and read (based on Sony tests and dependent on host hardware) through the PCIe interface, a computer expansion card standard for serial interfaces.<\/p>\n

As a user thou, that means we have to carry both CFs and XQDs cards in our bag if you want take advantage of the dual slots.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nikon D4 uses a new type of Lithium-ion battery EN-EL18<\/strong> (10.8V 2000 mAh) which has a battery life of 2,600 shots per charge. which surprisingly is lower than the EN-EL4 (11.0 V 2500 mAh) used in D3s (4,200 shots per charge).<\/p>\n

Updates:<\/strong><\/font> Nikon explains the D4 battery EN-EL18 does perform better than the D3s battery EN-EL4a. Read more here<\/a> <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When shooting in the dark, buttons are illuminated<\/strong> to ensure better visibility of the operational system in dark situations.<\/p>\n
