If you are a serious sports shooter this is your camera
I've had this camera for a couple months. I was nervous about parting with that kind of money for a camera - there are several out there that have great specs for a lot less - but once you have it in your hands and once you've used it for a while - you will be soooo happy you took the plunge.
Pros:
- FAST, fast, and it's fast
- It shoots fast, writes fast, and changing modes is fast, adjusting anything is fast...
- this camera has everything you need - right in front of you
- When you hold it - it just feels 'right'
- Well done Nikon
Cons:
- Wish the GPS was built in (I do not have the GPS adapter)
- and it will be a great day when wifi transfer is built in
- and wireless wifi remote control ability (via iPhone/iPad) is built in

Nikon D4 DSLR review
If you thought the Nikon D3s was the ultimate DSLR for photojournalism, sport and low light photography, then think again. The Nikon D4 is not only the D3's obvious upgrade and replacement but also Nikon's attempt to redefine, yet again, professional imaging standards.

Nikon D4
Every so often a top-of -the-range DSLR rears its head with the promise of the ultimate in design, performance and image quality. The Nikon D4 – the DSLR that sits atop the company's DSLR hierarchy – is one such camera. Some four years back the Nikon D3 passed through our hands.
Pros:
- Great image quality
- superb autofocus system in all conditions
- great design (improvements)
- excellent movie mode
- fast burst mode
- long-lasting battery life
Cons:
- Image quality isn't significantly better than Nikon D3S
- pipped by the Canon 1D X in burst shooting speed
- more expensive than most will be able to afford
- USB 2.0 output (despite use of XQD card

Nikon D4 Review: Feature-Packed Flagship
The full-frame DSLR market is highly competitive with solid options from several manufacturers including Nikon, Canon and Sony. And while Canon has had a grasp on those shooting DSLR video since the introduction of the 5D Mark II, Nikon has definitely moved forward with the D4's video features.
Pros:
- Excellent performance
- Stellar image quality
- Expanded video capabilities unmatched by competitors
- Excellent low light/high ISO performance
- Illuminated control buttons
Cons:
- Only camera to use expensive XQD card for second slot
- ISO 205,800 is
- perhaps
- overkill
- D3s may handle noise a little better
- Not much of a jump in image quality from D3s

Nikon D4 Review
The Nikon D4 continues the tradition of being the alpha male (if there can be such in the camera world) of Nikon's DSLR lineup. Introduced back in 2007 as the D3, Nikon's professional full-frame offering has had variants cater to both studio and sports photographers alike (with the D3, D3s and the...
Pros:
- Burst mode of 10 fps
- Built for rugged use
- Extensive weather sealing
- 51-point AF system is very effective at tracking subjects and low light performance
- Great high ISO performance
- Best video quality we have seen so far
Cons:
- Battery life reduced to just 2200 shots, Quite heavy
- Will require a rig for stabilizing when shooting video, Pricey
