The Nikon 1 J3 is a Nikon 1 series high-speed mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera by Nikon. It is the successor of the Nikon 1 J2 and predecessor of Nikon 1 J4.
Featuring a 14 megapixel image sensor and further increased autofocus (hybrid autofocus with phase detection/contrast-detect AF and AF-assist illuminator) speed to 15 frames per second (fps), the maximum continuous shooting speed stays at 60 fps for up to 40 frames.
The image processor Expeed 3A, a successor to the Expeed 3 used in the former Nikon 1 series cameras, features a new (according to Nikon) image-processing engine with increased speed of up to 850 megapixels per second. It is developed exclusively for Nikon 1 cameras. [1]
