The 80-400 is know for its lack of AF speed even in broad daylight. f/5.6 isn't helping either in poor light -- the D3s won't help improving that.

While it is slow, and the interface is fairly stupid in some ways, and it leaks memory, and the updates that matter cost the price of rebuying the program practically, CNX2 has it's charms. On a strong computer (PC) with sufficient RAM and a quick multi-core processor, with the program setup properly, and the OS tweaked, workflow on single images can proceed at a rational pace. Some mods are made so easily in CNX2 that you can finish...

As Stargazer95050 said, the camera is designed to provide low noise at High iso so for sports you can wind the shutter speed up and user F8 to provide good dof and still have a noise free high speed capture. To solve your probem take a small flashlight with you and focus with the aid of that, I think you can configure the buttons so that one is a focus button, so you can hold the flashlight in one hand the camera in the other, press the focus...

Nikon D3s | 500/4 x 1.4 TC =700mm | ƒ5.6 | 1/1600sec | ISO 102400 Wow! The noise becomes an artistic element of the picture. Photography freed the impressionists from purely realistic painting, and now we've come full circle. I love having *options* like this. Thanks, Chris -- and thank you, Nikon!

As long as there's solid detail rendered, removing chroma from that image takes what, like 30s of your time - that image rocks for detail and subject distance. D3s' high iso is mucho bada**. OP for pitch black we fire flash images then manually compensate focus distance - or easier, pack a good flashlight.

I agree. The SU-800 is small and makes a good focus assist.

The high ISO can help you in a couple of ways. You can shoot handheld, with smaller apertures than before. AF still works under moonlight. You can capture fast movements, sharper, more DOF thanks to high ISO There are AF assist lights. The SU-800 or use a strong flashlight / torch. Or set your lens to near infinity (hyperfocal distance) and stop down. And IMHO the ISO1000000 is...

I'm an amature who bought himself a D3 2 years ago. Never looked back, absolutely love it and I use it all the time. Only thing is when you're spending that kind of money you need to be very sure you will use it all the time.

is there a less time consuming method than opening in in "NC" saving and then reopening in photoshop Yes: open in Nikon View NX, save and reopen in PS. View NX does not suffer from the speed issues that Capture does, and if you just want to open the NEF and save it as a TIFF to preserve the picture control then using View NX is much faster (and it's free)....

This one is a bit overcrowded -- especially if you want to swap lenses quickly but it shows the Slingshot 300 's capacity The important factors to me were the height fits the D3, the width fits D3 + 70-200VR, I like that quick access from the side.

Shoot using MANUAL WB, preferably set to DAYLIGHT and adjust in post should you feel the need. Skip the AUTO WB altogether if you're going to be shooting under the same lighting conditions. Of course, you can always shoot a WB calibration frame on sight and use that in manual. Consistency is more important than WB accuracy for this, in my opinion. ....

Do you pull focus? Auto focus sometimes makes critical sharpness go a little wonky... Also there is no way i'd be shooting outside any slower then my focal length even on a tripod. Was it windy or breezy at all?
