Ltd. said, "Nikon is always up for a challenge and empowering astrophotographers with a dedicated camera of unprecedented image quality was one intriguing task. We are thrilled to announce the launch of Nikon D810A, a class-leading, high-definition D-SLR that will bring astrophotographers one step closer to capturing the majestic vastness and beauty of space while offering them a new perspective in stunning detail."

Nikon D810A is a 36.3 megapixels camera crafted with unique ability to capture subjects with H-alpha wavelengths, ensuring rich vibrant capture for images of the cosmos that are true to the eye", said Mr. Sajjan Kumar, Vice President – Imaging Division, Nikon India Pvt.

The World's Highest Resolution Full-Frame DSLR Cameras: EOS 5DS And EOS 5DSR

Cannon has established itself as the leader in terms of highest resolution cameras among the 35mm format DSLRs with the introduction of the EOS 5DS And EOS 5DSR. These cameras will feautre a newly designed 50.6 megapixel full-frame CMOS image sensor and Dual DIGIC 6 Image Processors to ensure the best image quality possible right now.

To take advantage of the new 50.6 megapixel sensor, for the first time in an EOS camera the low-pass filter effect is canceled in the EOS 5DS R. The cancellation of the low-pass filter helps deliver sharper images, squeezing the most out of every pixel. Both the cameras will give photographers over 70 Canon EF lenses to choose from.

"Canon is always looking to deliver the absolute best in image quality and push our technology to the limits. These cameras deliver on that pledge, providing photographers with two new incredible tools that will enable them to make the most out of every shoot," said Yuichi Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "As photography becomes more specialized and more images are captured than ever before, the burden is on the photography equipment to keep up with the demands of today's artistic talents. These new camera models will provide many photographers with new options to deliver their vision to clients, fans, and the world."

The EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R Digital SLR cameras are scheduled to hit the international market in June 2015 for estimated retail prices of $3,699.00 and $3,899.00, body only.
