I don't know if I'd get too excited about the 25600 ISO with the Nikon just yet. The right photoshop know-how can take an image shot at ISO 400 in the dark and tweak it to look just as good (if not better) than one shot at ISO 800 or ISO 1600 if done right. I'd have to see some sample shots from a Canon at 1600 or 3200 that were adjusted in PS and maybe tossed through Neat Image to compare to an indentical shot taken with Nikon's 25600. I'm not thinking there will be much of a difference.

Either way, 9fps is a great step forward for the folks over at Nikon. Good to see them keeping up the good work.
