The Kodak Professional DCS Pro SLR/n is a 13.5
Nikon F mount
lenses. The camera was announced in early 2004 and became available to purchase mid-year. A monochrome variant named Kodak Professional DCS Pro SLR/n m of the camera existed as well.
The camera has no
noise reduction capabilities. It also has impressively high dynamic range (the ability to capture both light and dark subjects well in the same image). It has less of a useful range of ISO sensitivity than many modern digital SLR
cameras, although the selectable range is very large.
The camera is very unusual for a DSLR in having a long exposure setting where film speeds down to 6 ASA and exposure settings up to 60 seconds can be selected. This would have been useful for Product Photography.
The cousin of this camera, the Kodak Professional DCS Pro SLR/c, announced a month later, shared the same full 35 mm (36x24 mm) frame sized CMOS image sensor, electronics, and most controls, but was based on the top of the Sigma Corporation's SLR cameras (such as the SD9) and a custom body, and was compatible with Canon Inc.'s EOS lenses.
Both cameras were discontinued on May 31, 2005 [1]
