The Nikon D4S combines a full-frame, FX-format 16.2MP CMOS sensor and EXPEED 4 image processor to produce high-resolution still imagery and full HD 1080p movies with amazing image quality, recognized by smooth tonal gradations and vivid, yet accurate, color reproduction as well as an expansive dynamic range. The processing power of the EXPEED 4 grants a full-resolution continuous shooting rate of 11 fps for up to 200 frames with maintained auto-exposure and autofocus. The Nikon D4S also features a broad native sensitivity range from ISO 100-25600. The ISO is further expandable to an equivalent ISO 409600 to enable shooting in challenging light. With a refined 51-point autofocus system, 3D Color Matrix Metering III system, and 12-bit RAW SIZE S file size to help expedite post-production, the Nikon D4S has taken everything we love about the Nikon D4, made it that much better, and then some.
