Nikon D3
JPEGs need sharpening
Still pricey compared to rivals
Buffer in RAW shooting
No top plate data LCD
Some overexposure using Highlight Tone Priority
A single control dial
Autofocus in Live View not that great
Construction is a bit light
No wireless flash system
Sensitivity limited to 1600 ISO

Maximum ISO 1
600
Huge spot-for-spot metering
No CompactFlash
Still on the large side compared to Olympus E-Series
