Here are a few new samples from forum member grizerep19, who attended the IFA electronics show in Berlin this past weekend. He was able to use a pre-production D3 in the NPS room and make a few images, including these images at ISO 6400 and ISO 200.

All of the below images were shot in TIFF and then converted to 10-quality JPGs in Photoshop. The images were also converted to sRGB from Nikon Adobe RGB.

Below are the two fresh ISO 200 images, both shot with the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 at f/2.8. The first image also shows the 5:4 aspect ratio, which deviates from the conventional 2:3 aspect ratio of most other DSLRs and 35mm film. It also shows Nikon's trio of new super-telelphoto lenses.

I've simply provided resized versions of these low-ISO images, as they're rather pedestrian for the pixel-peepers. Feel free to download and inspect.

Again, thanks to grizerep19 for making these samples available for the community. If you haven't seen the other samples he's shared, check 'em out here:
