D4S first try, shooting pool pictures

jpparmentier

Hi everyone,

last week-end I got to shoot with the D4s for the first time.

I've been shooting pool pictures in tournaments all around to world for ten years now and I have to say this camera really has it all for the low-light.

The AF was much better both at locking on and at tracking subjects (using matrix metering and 3D tracking) with my two main lenses (70-200 and 200-400). I was surprised by the iso rendering coming from D3s and D4. This is really one step ahead of D3s, and I think with the D4 it wasn't the case. I process my images in Lightroom 5 and the rendering was really cool.

I've made a post on my facebook page here:

Nice shoots. Enjoy your D4s. It is a great body and it's ISO is fantastic...much like the D4's.

If possible, please get a Flickr account and share you images with us in that fashion.

Thanks. I've had many issues of stolen pictures in the past and that's why I haven't made a flickr account and I watermark heavily. Working in a small industry (pool & billiards) I have to protect my images.
Does flickr allow watermarking?
