From the bustling metropolis of Sydney to aboriginal villages in
the Outback, from a cold and dusty Aussie rules football pitch
in Tasmania to the sun-baked desert in Nambung National
Park, Sports Illustrated staff photographer and award-winning
photojournalist, Bill Frakes roamed Australia for three weeks,
testing the D3S relentlessly to serve his seemingly limitless
photographic imagination.

As an artist with an immense respect for nature, award-winning
wildlife photographer, Vincent Munier waits patiently in severe
weather until his animal subjects grow to accept his presence.
Only then will he begin photographing them. Vincent recently took
the D3S on assignment with him to Norway and Finland. There, he
and the D3S sat quietly in the wind and rain while getting to know
the creatures of the Nordic forest.

Every time I put the D3S to my eye, it's like opening a surprise
present. It makes the child in me come out and play. Everything I see
can be captured accurately and fluidly, and by combining still capture
and D-Movie, I can meld motion and emotion into multidimensional
expressions of visual and audio exploration.
I make career-defining decisions in milliseconds, and I want the best
possible image quality every time I push the button. No matter who you are, or how you work,
you never know when the cosmos will align in such a way that the perfect image is available.
When it happens, I have to be ready in every conceivable way. This is why the D3S excites and
motivates me. I need a camera that responds precisely, quickly and consistently. The D3S does
that and more, and this kind of power gives me enormous freedom.

Animal photography is a passion more than a profession. Sometimes
I sit in the rain and snow for weeks just to experience a single brief
moment with an animal. I need the best and most reliable equipment
available so that I can take full advantage of the rare opportunities
inherent in my work.
Many of my subjects are active only after the sun goes down. Yet
with the D3S, I managed to photograph things that my eyes were practically unable to see. For
example, I remember a brown bear that was just meters from my cabin in the Finnish taiga. It was
the middle of the night, but just a short glimpse of his wet nose permitted me to focus, resulting
in a surprisingly sharp picture. Capturing images like this is what makes the D3S invaluable.
