[QUOTE="FastGlass, post: 160628, member: 13822"] Your looking at cameras for differant needs. The D800 is on the other end of the (I use this camera for ) scale compared to the D3s. If I were shooting a wedding or even a sporting event and had the choice to use either a D-800 or the D3s than to its a no brainer to choose the D3s. The D3s will blow away the D800 as far as speed and low light performance. It seems you need to fully understand what cameras are used and for what purposes. High pixel cameras suck in low light shooting and are slow compared to low pixel cameras that are awesome in low light and have a high burst rate. If I did nothing but shoot portraits in studio. Than the D-800 would be my first choice. But if I were shooting Basketball games and other sporting events indoors , than the D3s would be. You can use any camera for any shooting condition. But certain cameras are simply made for doing certain types of photography. The pixel count has nothing to do with camera shake. [/QUOTE]
