I am getting it in a few days.. I am crazy.. but I will... I love it... LOL :) What do you think a good lens would be for my first lens.. Keeping in mind that I wish to do wedding photography sometime this year...

[dombower]

@kitakits wait!!! your buying a d3s and you dont have any lenses???? is this your first camera?

Interesting vid as always Dom, however I would have had the first two shots at 3200, if you are going to compare images, they should be compared at the same ISO. This would be so much better than at 10000 and 3200..

At 8.16 at ISO 1600 the D3s is fantastic... Noise is getting less and less with each camera incarnation..

Cheers

@SoundsandImages it would be impossible to tell any difference at the same iso. it was also meant to be a shock value, people thinking they were the same then showing that they are miles different isos

[Sinwori]

one little mistake: at the highest iso (hi3 setting) it's not 25.000 it's 102.000 iso.

interesting video!

[dombower]

yeah my bad at 6.28 should have said 102 thousand. the numbers just get soo big!

[lorikzzz]

Why didn't you take a photo at 102,400 ISO , just to see how noisy it looks

@kitakits A few days later: 'OMG WHY IS PHOTOGRAPHY SO HARD? I BOUGHT JOE MCNALLYS CAMERA AND MY PICTURES ARENT AS GOOD AS HIS? THIS MEMORY CARD IS DEFECTIVE!'.

Anything zoomed in will have Grain/Noise

[Ken5imaging]

You are comparing them with a digital crop factor. They should be tested at the same iso and the same zoom factor with the crop factor included. then it will be a good test. I own a D300 and am looking to get a D3s in the future.

@kitakits buy a canon t2i or something lol.

I like your videos,except you dont know to talk about cameras,you dont know the iso values on cameras.Hi1 on D3s is 25600,Hi2 is 51200,Hi3 is 102.400.You make many mistakes,and i dont know why,because seams that you know DSLR cameras very good,but your videos are very good,good to learn.Dont mind please ok?

Dom - love the videos. Question: What is the highest ISO you'd use on a D300s when, say, shooting a wedding in a dim church? What do you recommend as the highest ISO to still capture usable images?
