Overview

The Nikon D4S is a professional FX-format DSLR built for photographers who prioritize speed, reliability, and low-light capability above all else. At its core is a 16.2-megapixel CMOS sensor paired with the EXPEED 4 image processor, a combination that enables an 11-frame-per-second continuous shooting rate and a native ISO range of 100–25,600, expandable to an extraordinary ISO 409,600. The 51-point autofocus system, backed by a 91,000-pixel RGB metering sensor for 3D Color Matrix Metering III, provides precise subject tracking even in fast-paced shooting environments such as professional sports arenas and wildlife habitats.

Video capabilities include Full HD 1080p recording at up to 60 frames per second, and the built-in Gigabit wired LAN port supports high-speed tethered transfer for press and studio workflows where immediate file delivery is essential. The D4S also introduces a smaller RAW SIZE S format, giving photographers more flexibility in managing file sizes without switching to JPEG. Sold as a body-only unit with a rechargeable Li-ion battery, charger, USB cable, strap, body cap, and shoe cover included, the D4S is designed for professionals who need a camera that performs decisively in the most demanding shooting conditions.
