All are shot at 1600iso,4000iso,5000iso,6400iso. I'll have some better samples this week but for now you'll have to just view my crazy model tests. www.zoeicaimages.com/D3Test - I realized that the 2nd image is listed wrong, it should say 6400iso instead of 1600iso. 6400iso is completely awesome! Can't say I'll use it too much but it's damn nice to know it's possible.1600iso on the D3 looks like Nikon's D200,D2x 320iso. Extremely clean images at high iso's. I can set the camera to Auto ISO and have plenty of faith in the images now. I used to do this with the D200,D2x but limited it to 800iso. AWB does a pretty good job so far, shooting inside with household lights and a mix of TV light. By far the best Nikon AWB yet. I'll still stick with Kelvin for serious shooting. 2 card slots! Yes, one for shooting RAW and one for Jpeg. Sweet. I'll have to practice with this 51 point 3D focusing thing, that's allot of focus points! Bring on those dark Cathedrals! Having fun, Chris NOLA
