Designed with sports photographers and photojournalists in mind, the Nikon D3 introduces an astounding list of brand new features and technologies that make it the most sophisticated and advanced Nikon digital SLR to date. In addition to the new FX-format CMOS sensor, the D3 incorporates Nikon's new EXPEED Image Processing System that is central to the blazing speed and processing power needed for many of the D3's new features.

Images taken with the D3 reflect exceptional overall quality, broad tonal range and depth, along with extremely low-noise throughout its normal ISO range of 200 to 6400. By setting the camera to its built-in options of Lo-1 or Hi-2, the ISO range of the camera can be expanded to the equivalent of ISO 100 or ISO 25,600 respectively, offering unmatched versatility in practically any shooting situation.

The D3 also features an entirely new 51-point auto focus system with Nikon's 3D Focus Tracking feature and two new LiveView shooting modes that allow photographers to frame a photograph using the camera's high-resolution LCD monitor. The D3 uses the world's first Scene Recognition System to greatly enhance the accuracy of auto focus, auto exposure and auto white balance detection in the camera by recognizing the subject or scene being photographed and applying this information to the calculations for the three functions.

The D3 reflects Nikon's most streamlined, functional and aesthetically pleasing layout in a digital SLR camera, all designed so photographers can take pictures with less fatigue, greater accuracy and comfort.

Hitachi Digital CP-X608 LCD projector is designed for installation in medium and large presentation facilities at corporate venues and educational institutions. As demanded by such professional environments the new projector offers the high performance and key features users have come to expect from Hitachi. Common sense design improvements have resulted in even better user functionality, ease of operation and maintenance.

A design goal of the CP-X6xx series was to improve projector maintenance with easier to use features such as the accessible lamp door on the top of the machine and the air filter on the side where it doesn't trap dust regardless of how the unit is mounted. Maintenance is further eased with the inclusion of Hitachi's network management software which allows users to control, diagnose, monitor and manage projectors through a simple browser interface from anywhere on the network or via email alerts. The CP-X608 has the added benefit of a wireless network interface to provide even more convenient access.

Reliability of the new projector has been improved not only by less complexity but specifically with the introduction of a high performance air filter. The new electro-statically charged filter is far more effective than conventional urethane filters in ensuring that dust particles do not accumulate on critical areas of the projector including the lens mechanism, even when operating in dusty or polluted environments.

Flexible installation into venues including meeting rooms and conference rooms is aided by the vertical and horizontal manual lens shift and a range of four optional lenses with bayonet style fittings that facilitate a range of throw distances from 1.8m to 14.8m when projecting a 100" screen surface.
