Nikon D3 Sample Photo (ISO 3200)
August 27, 2007
Shortly after posting
Nikon D3 Sample Photo (ISO 640), I received another mail regarding photo leak of Nikon D3 at ISO 3200. This time, photos were taken at a soccer field. There are believed to be taken using Nikon D3 and Nikon 400 f2.8 VR lens.
I have resized and sharpen the sample photos. 100% cropping is done in Photoshop CS3 to enable a better view of how Nikon D3 performs in ISO3200. Nikon D3's ISO3200 setting is one of the normal ISO settings in the camera, unlike the Nikon D2 series where ISO3200 is known as HI-1.
Below is the exif extracted from the sample photos:

According to Rob Galbraith, Nikon has already begin manufacturing Nikon D3 and Nikon D300 for sale in November.

D3 bodies are currently being made at a rate of about 400 per day in Sendai, but this will grow to about 600 per day in September for a planned ongoing production of 12,000 units per month.

Assembly of the D300, which takes place at Nikon's factory in Thailand, will also be in full swing in September, at which time 60,000 units of the midrange digital SLR will emerge each month.
The Nikon D3 and D300 are slated to ship in November 2007.
