Digital Camera Description

The Nikon D4S is a Professional DSLR with a Full-Frame sensor and a Nikon F lens mount. Its 16 Megapixels CMOS sensor offers an ISO 100-25600 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 50-409600. This makes it possible to shoot hand-held in very low-light. With 16 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to 20" x 13" at 240 DPI.

This camera features a mechanic shutter that can expose for 1/8000 to 30s. Bulb exposures of an unspecified duration are possible with this camera. With a fastest shutter-speed of 1/8000, fast action can easily be frozen. Night photography is possible using this digital camera due to its long exposure capability. This camera model offers Full Manual Controls.

The Nikon D4S features a 51-point Phase-Detect AF system. Autofocus can continuously adjust according to subject distance. A Real-Time Autofocus Tracking System allows focus to follow a moving subject within the frame. Manual Focus is also available.
