microsoft office Professional Plus 2010 64bit key
These two powerhouse pro digital SLRs were announced within a week of each other. They both cost about $5000,
genuine microsoft office 2010 x64 key, both have HD video, fast capture rates and a ridiculously high ISO 102,
discount office 2010 64 bit key,400 sensitivity. It’s impossible not to wonder which one is the better camera. So I thought it would worth the effort to, as closely as possible, do a back-to-back comparison of the Nikon D3S and. the Canon EOS-1D Mark IV.
It may be a little premature for this comparison since Canon hasn’t published and sample images yet. (Note: we now have high-res studio samples for both cameras – see all digital camera studio sample photos.) But that’s ok. As more real-world testing and high-res sample photos become available we can add information in the comments section below. I did a similar article when the Nikon D90 and the Canon EOS 50D were announced (Nikon D90 vs. Canon EOS 50D vs…). At the time they seemed pretty comparable. But it quickly became clear that the Nikon D90′s super low noise made it the better camera. But for now we’ll work with what we have and compare the new 1D Mark IV and Nikon D3S by specs alone.
Editor’s Note: Since this article was published (October 22nd, 2009),
microsoft office 2010 pro plus x64 key, we’ve received both the Nikon D3S and the Canon EOS-1D Mark IV for review. I’ve added links for sample photos and an auto focus comparison on another site to this article. There’s also an updated conclusion at the end. So if you’ve already read this you might want to skip to the end. If you want to see what I’ve shot with both cameras, you can see my Canon EOS-1D Mark IV photos here, and my Nikon D3S photos here.

Nikon D3S vs. Canon EOS-1D Mark IV Image Quality
Let’s dig into these specs a little and see what more we can learn from them – feel free to add your own observations in the comments section at the bottom of the page! The Nikon has a 12-megapixel sensor and the Canon has a 16-megapixel sensor. Looks like the Canon is better, right? Not so fast, partner. The Nikon’s larger, full frame sensor and lower resolution means it has bigger pixels – much bigger (8.45 microns compared to the Canon’s 5.7 micron pixels). Bigger pixels mean less noise and one of the main specs both camera makers are pushing is high ISO sensitivity. Nikon has published sample images at ISO 6400 and they look wonderful. Canon has yet to publish any 1D Mark IV sample images but with about 30% less surface area on each 1D pixel, they’ll be hard pressed to match the low noise of the D3S.
