Nikon 200mm f/2G

DIWA Labs has tested the Nikon 200mm f/2G ED-IF AF-S VR Nikkor lens on a Nikon D3 camera body. This lens has very impressive specifications with 200mm at f/2, but you need a pretty high price for the lens at about $4,299.

DIWA Labs are praising the 200mm f/2G ED-IF AF-S VR Nikkor lens as it is giving them some impressive test results with very good sharpness at all apertures and little geometric distortion. Seems like an excellent telelens for everyone that can afford it.

Nikon D3X DSLR

DIWA Labs has been busy this holiday and has released some test results of from the new Nikon D3X DSLR camera. The D3X is basically the same camera as the Nikon D3, but the image sensor has been updated to 24.5 megapixels. The higher resolution means lower continuous shooting speed, less light sensitivity and a mind blowing price that (maybe) only professional photographers can afford.
DIWA Labs has tested the Nikon D3X with the new AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G lens.
