Define everyeyelash, every line in tree bark, and every shimmer of light.Savor the exceptional depth in your still images — with theastounding 36.3 effective megapixels, you can. Enlarge themas big as A1 poster-sized prints (59.4 x 84.1 cm/23.4 x 33.1 in.)at 200 dpi, or crop aggressively to reach the composition youdesire, all without sacrificing the detail and tonal range of theoriginal. In order to maintain clean, high-resolution images,14-bit A/D conversion within the sensor and a high signal-tonoise ratio deliver phenomenal images in a diverse array ofsituations. The image sensor’s incredible potential does notstop with photography, either. For cinematographers ready toput their exceptionally sharp NIKKOR lenses into action, theD800’s 36.3 effective megapixel data is efficiently processedfor exquisite 1080p broadcast quality video at 30p.A strategic approach to turn light to your advantageCombining both high-resolution performance and a wideISO sensitivity range has finally become a reality. Nikonengineers have developed intelligent new methods tomanipulate light transmission to the sensor’s photodiodes:from the optical low-pass filter and on-chip gapless microlenses to the image sensor’s internal design, every measurehas been taken to maximize and improve light transmissionin order to deliver crisp, brilliant images with significantlyless noise. All this is possible under a wide variety of lightingconditions, enabling you to get the most out of your NIKKORlenses.Standard ISO 100 to ISO 6400, range expandable toISO 50 to 25600 equivalentHigh-resolution, studio-quality images shouldn’t be restrictedto the studio. The D800 sets a new benchmark for highresolution D-SLR cameras, with crisp clean imagesacross a wide ISO range. Flexibility like this opens up newimaging opportunities for both still photographers andcinematographers alike during the “magic hour”, the timejust before dawn or at dusk when available light is oftenbeautiful but scarce. Even at high ISO settings, the camera’sintelligent noise reduction systems manage noise withoutsacrificing fine details, giving the D800 the edge. Thedifference can even be seen in low-contrast subjects such ashair and grass textures, which are often essential elementsof cinema as well as high-resolution portraits and landscapeimages. High image quality at higher ISOs also meansthat you can shoot still images handheld more confidently,knowing that fast shutter speeds will reduce blur.Optical low-pass filter optimized for sharpnessReducing false color and moiré is the main job of the opticallow-pass filter located in front of the image sensor. However,this benefit is generally gained with a small sacrifice ofsharpness. Moiré occurs in scenes containing repetitivedetails, such as strong vertical lines in architecture. Findingthe right balance between benefits and sacrifices is the keyto higher image quality, and that is what the D800’s opticallow-pass filter delivers. As a result, the astounding 36.3megapixels unleash their potential through an optimizedbalance between sharpness and effectively prevented moiréand false color. Furthermore, the multi-layer structure of theD800 low-pass filter utilizes layers of antireflective coatingthat have been optimized for the camera, contributing tosharper and clearer images.High-megapixel still images are detail-richbut data-heavy. With the D800, however,you don’t have to sacrifice speed for thisprivilege. Dedicated to understandingspeed and its role in image making, Nikonengineers designed a powerful EXPEED 3image-processing engine exclusively fordigital SLRs. From image processing andcard recording to image playback andimage transfer, EXPEED 3 manages massive amounts ofdata at faster speeds than EXPEED 2. Even with specializedprocessing features like Active D-Lighting and high ISO noisereduction, capture speed is not affected. EXPEED 3 is sopowerful that it handles data-intensive tasks such as FullHD video recording at 30p with ease. You’ll also notice thedifference in your still images and videos through minimizednoise and even richer colors and tones. In addition to thesefundamental advantages, the D800 reduces the kind ofcolor phase shift that some cameras have difficulty with insimilar situations.Lateral chromatic aberration reduction: Take fulladvantage of your NIKKOR lens collectionHigh-megapixel sensors can really test the quality of yourlenses, but you can be confident that the combination ofbrilliant NIKKOR lenses and Nikon’s intelligent processingmeasures will significantly reduce lateral chromatic aberrationto give you incredibly natural-looking results. Unlike othercorrection methods that simply eliminate chromaticaberration, Nikon’s method compensates for these colordifferences in a resolving index for each color, making itparticularly effective in producing images with stunning edgeto-edge sharpness. Moreover, because these correctionsare made regardless of the NIKKOR lens used, this featurecontributes substantially to achieving the sharpest imagespossible.WithRich tones and natural colors thanks to the EXPEED 3 image-processing engine.

The D800 doesexactly that, with cutting-edge image processing that injectsvital energy into your images. Black is rendered as pitchblack, and shadow details are subtle and rich. Even underharsh, high-contrast light, where some cameras can fail, theD800’s gradation remains smooth with abundant detail andtone all the way up the scale to pure white.WithoutLateral chromatic aberration reduction Benjamin Antony Monn1213

With the D800 and its moreprecise information and subject recognition advancements,expect big steps forward for both AF-area modes whentaking high-quality still images. In auto-area AF, the cameracan genuinely detect human faces and focuses on themimmediately — useful when faces are a priority and there’sno time to choose focus points. When using 3D-tracking,the sensor’s fine resolution combines with a specificallyoptimized AF algorithm to realize unprecedented subjecttracking precision, recognizing detailed patterns to keep yoursubject in sharp focus.3D color matrix metering III for more accurate exposures Cliff MautnerAdvanced Scene Recognition System with 91K-pixelRGB sensorNikon’s revolutionary Advanced SceneRecognition System, introduced with theflagship D4 camera, is also employed in theD800. At its core is a 91K-pixel RGB sensorthat meticulously analyzes each scenewith the fine resolution. The RGB sensorcan recognize your scene’s colors andbrightness with unprecedented precision,then use that information to implement various automaticcontrols and give you more natural-looking results. The realbreakthrough, however, is that the sensor can detect humanfaces with startling accuracy when shooting through theoptical viewfinder. Along with face detection, detailed sceneanalysis is utilized to support more accurate autofocus, autoexposure and i-TTL flash exposure results in a diverse rangeof compositional and lightingsituations. The improved subjecttracking is most noticeable91K-pixel RGB sensorwhen using 3D-tracking, whichcan maintain a focus on movingsubjects smaller in size thanwith previous generations.SubjecttrackingPhase-detection AFAuto-area AF3D-tracking14Professional photographers who shoot still images know thatNikon’s metering system delivers supremely well-balancedexposures. Thanks to the 91K-pixel RGB sensor, the D800has far more detailed scene information at its disposal —including detected face information. This data helps the3D color matrix metering III deliver more desirable autoexposures, especially when there are human faces present.When the D800 recognizes a human face in a backlitsituation, the camera determines the overall exposure whileprioritizing the facial exposure, which might otherwise beunderexposed. When a face is lit from the front and appearsmuch brighter than the background, the camera recognizesthe situation and avoids blowing out the facial details.The Advanced Scene Recognition SystemImage sensorFace detection with91K-pixel RGB sensorExposure control3D color matrix metering IIIi-TTL balanced t sourceidentificationPlaybackPlayback zoom offaceFace detection onimage planeLive viewexposure controlLive view meteringFlicker reductionSubjecttrackingContrast-detect AFFace-priority AFSubject-tracking AFNikon’s i-TTL system has long been considered themost accurate flash control system in photography,but now face detection and highlight analysis bythe 91K-pixel RGB sensor pushes performanceeven further. With the D800’s enhancedi-TTL balanced fill-flash, you can moreprecisely illuminate people’s faces in relationto their surrounding brightness using either the built-in flashor an external hot-shoed Nikon Speedlight. For weddingsand fashion shoots, or any photography thatrelies on the highest-quality still images, thisnew standard redefines what a flash systemshould be. Face detection also makes adifference when Active D-Lighting is used toretain highlights and shadows in high-contrastlighting situations. Faces will be optimallyexposed both in the sun and in the shade.Light source identification for auto white balance in stillimagesThe D800’s auto white balance is incredibly accurate in adiverse range of shooting situations, aided by unique Nikontechnology that effectively identifies your light sources, bothnatural and artificial.

What’s more, AF can beactivated with eleven focus pointsin the center with open apertureof f/8*, which is a big plus whenyou combine a telephoto lenswith a 2.0x teleconverter to shootdistant subjects.*Cross-type sensor is limited to the centerAF point only. AF may not be achieved in lowcontrast or low-light conditions.Versatile AF-area modesWhether it’s a still life, a portrait, a landscape or a candidstreet scene, your subject matter varies, but its importancedoesn’t. That’s why the D800 offers four AF-area modes,each specifically tailored to adapt to various subjects. Singlepoint AF is ideal when you need pinpoint focus on stationarysubjects. Dynamic-area AF has three options (9-point,21-point and 51-point) and is ideal for shooting movingsubjects. The selected AF point and the surrounding pointskeep your subject in sharp focus even if it briefly leaves theselected points. 3D-tracking allows you to maintain focus onsubjects that are moving erratically from side to side. Autoarea AF detects human facesand prioritizes their sharpness foryou — an ideal choice for candidphotography.The D800 can autofocus your subjectas low as -2 EV. Cliff Mautner15
