Nikon Canada has announced the new D3s digital SLR camera, enabling new opportunities in low-light photography with extreme ISO sensitivity for stills and video. Here are the feature highlights:

ISO performance: ISO 12,800 as standard, expandable to ISO equivalent of 102,400
Professional photographers can now rely on ISO 200 to ISO 12,800 as the professional standard of image quality for their assignments – an incredible advantage when shooting indoor sports, stadium events at night, dimly lit spot news or any other shooting situation where light is limited and Speedlights are not applicable. Shooting at ISOs as high as 12,800, the D3s can take commercial-quality, tack-sharp images in low light at action-freezing shutter speeds. When needed, the D3s expands to the amazing ISO equivalent of 102,400, still revealing colours and details even in extremely low-lit places where human eyes may find it difficult to discern objects. Its exceptional low-noise performance also
applies to D-Movie capture, which opens up new opportunities for multi-media projects and assignments.
