Nikon has launched the Nikon D4, a Nikon FX-format camera that serves as the new flagship model in Nikon’s lineup of digital-SLR cameras. Nikon will be exhibiting the D4 at the 2012 International CES.

The D4 is equipped with a Nikon FX-format CMOS image sensor (imaging size of 36.0 x 23.9 mm) and EXPEED 3. It has an effective pixel count of 16.2-million pixels, and image sensor supporting from ISO 50 to ISO 204800.

In 2007, Nikon released the D3 digital-SLR camera as its flagship model equipped with the FX-format CMOS image sensor developed by Nikon. Nikon based development of the flagship D4 on the basic performance achieved with the D3 series.
