Nikon D3 Review by James Russell

Over at Luminous Landscape, pro commercial/corporate photographer James Russell writes a guest Nikon D3 review about his pre-release D3 experiences.He makes it sound like he just picked up the camera and got amazing results. Remember that his digital background is pretty deep given the medium format backs and other specialty cameras he references in the article.

That said, it’s a good sign that he was able to just pick the machine up and go off to the races, literally.I’m very encouraged by the fact he made a point to comment about the color qualities straight out of the camera, and that he did not need to do as much post processing as he would have with other systems.

That to me is a strong sign we’re making good strides forward in the digital world. We need our tools to help us spend more time doing photography, not pixel-peeping/pushing. (Then again, there are those who love the Photoshop side of things so to those folks I apologize for ranting on and on about this.)Anyway, Nikon’s D3 is showing a lot of promise. Makes the idea of switching even more interesting…
