Love the D4
The D4 is a great camera. It lives up to its reputation. I love the low noise at high ISO. I actually got it for a specific assignment where I needed the higher frame rate. It worked great. I'm a little disappointed with the feel of the body. I prefer the smaller metallic feel of the D2Xs.
Pros:
- Frame Rate
- ISO
Cons:
- Clunky
- Plastic Feeling

Upgraded from d3s to d4
I upgraded from a d3s that I owned for a couple years to the d4 which I have owned since August of 2012. The upgrade is well worth it for the additional features and image improvements over the d3s. I have found the d4's exterior is a little more rounded than the d3s and fits my hands perfectly.

I love this camera!
It's like holding heaven in my hands. Though it is big and covers my ENTIRE face, I can't wait to get out and shooting with this amazing machine.

The Nikon D4: A Pro's Point Of View
The Nikon D4 is a large sized, 16MP, lightning fast D-SLR, with high-definition video capability good enough to satisfy an independent film producer. At first, my thought was to see how the D4 worked when used for the more mundane subjects I shoot than what it was designed for, and to see how it...

If I could send it back I would
My choice of the D4 was somewhat influenced by the spiel from the Nikon rep at last years BVE (broadcast Video Exhibition) I was taken in by the cameras ability to shoot full HD in full frame (FX) format. If they are at the show this year I'll be doing a bit of "ear-bending"!
Pros:
- Durable
Cons:
- Low-Quality Recordings

Highly recommended for those who want the latest & greatest!
Upgraded from the D3s there are some very fine enhancements from the previous model. The new screen is great. Image quality is too. I have not acquired the new memory card just using my old CF cards. I have heard some really like while others don't like having 2 different card slots.

- Superb dynamic-range
- Ultra-fast autofocus
- Very fast continuous drive with deep buffer
- Extremely fast and responsive
- Ultra-short black-out
- Good color-accuracy
- Flexible self-timer and exposure delay

Nikon D4
The transmitter lets you see images in Live View on your iPad, plus set the autofocus point and shooting mode and trigger the shutter remotely. "This is something else that is likely to appeal to wildlife photographers who may want to sit remotely from their camera," says TechRadar.com's Davies.
Pros:
- Superb image quality
- Tough build
- Thoughtful features like backlit buttons
- built-in Wi-Fi
Cons:
- Slightly slower than Canon EOS-1D X
- Canon pulls ahead slightly in low light
- Mixed reactions to new XQD memory card format
