Extreme-resolution photography once meant a sacrifice in mobility, versatility and spontaneity. Now, the Nikon D3X builds 
upon the world-renowned D3, merging 24.5 megapixels of imaging performance with the speed and handling characteristics 
that today's photography demands: exquisite detail and tonal range in an ergonomically superior digital SLR body with 
comprehensive protection against dust, moisture and electromagnetic interference. Work within ISO 100 and ISO 1600 for 
spectacularly clean and sharp images, even in harsh conditions. The D3X's intuitive layout makes it easier to respond instantly 
to rapidly changing situations. With Nikon's Total Imaging System on their side, demanding photographers can better realize 
their vision, using the comprehensive range of renowned NIKKOR lenses and the incomparable Creative Lighting System to 
adapt to any assignment or shooting situation. That's creative freedom. With the D3X, the world is your studio.
