I have been using the D1X for about 2 years in my job as a military photographer. The basic package will come with the D1X body, a 35-70mm lens, and nikon battery and charger.
The quality which this camera records information can be seen in the finished product. I have taken images of landscapes, aircraft, people, technical parts (including close-up's) and many other subjects.
There are 4 modes for use with this camera, shutter priority, manual, apature priority and 'P' or 'automatic'. Along with this are subject settings, i.e: sunny; cloudy; florescent lighting; shadow; ect, all of which are excellent features. The D1X performs well in most circumstances, although it is not brilliant with skin tones. For every 6/10 photographs I take of people, I need to correct the colour slightly. Apart from this dissapointing feature, the print quality is brilliant! I have had posters printed from it that measure 42" wide, so there is no worry there!
This camera is popular with the press, so you can imagine the speed which photos can be taken, which is very helpful when taking sports or nature photographs!
A very useful thing about Nikon is that all of the lenses are inter-changable, so if you plan on buying (or have) more than one Nikon SLR there is no need to buy extra zoom or wide-angled lenses for each of them.
The D1X is quite a bulky camera, and If you choose to buy a flash (e.g. Nikon SB28) or extra lenses, it can get quite heavy, and I would definately not recommend it for holiday snaps!
Another feature (good or bad?) is all of the custom features. There are 50 or even more, (I really dont know what they all do!) but an example of one is a feature which always makes your shutter speed go up or down by 2 numbers instead of one.
If you are a keen sports, nature or even aircraft photographer (a larger lens would be needed for these) and can justify splashing the cash then this is the ideal camera!
This camera would need a basic or intermediate knowledge of SLR cameras, and the manual would need to be thoroughly read to understand all this camera has to offer!
