We saw the Atocha traveling display years ago in Claremont, CA. That
whole recovery is a fascinating story. Nice treatment!

customizability is really extensive. The LCD on the back is gorgeous, and
the controls are laid out in a logical way. Noise performance is great.
ISO 1600 is really, really clean. I haven't shot enough at high ISOs to
really say yet how good, but up to 25,600 seems to be usable for some
things. Overall, it's the best DX camera Nikon makes by far. And for the
price it really makes the D300s look dated. AF is very fast, and accurate.

during video you can hear the lenses focusing. I don't even notice the
noise from my AF-S lenses as I'm shooting, but it's there in the video
sound track. So you really need an external mic to make audio work well
apparently. Could this be a major reason other cameras don't have AF
during video other than the D3100?
