“We have upgraded hundreds of D4 cameras,
none have experienced a shutter failure!”
Press Release: 02/01/2013
Southern Photo Technical Service, a Nikon Authorized Service Center owned and operated by master technician Isaac Hadid, has created a modified Nikon D4 that is proudly referred to as the “Pro”.
This Nikon D4 “Pro” is a beefed up Nikon, ready to handle harsher environments and reduce general maintenance with enhanced weather proofing seals, additional dust traps installed in critical areas and what Isaac calls a shutter enhancement that will increase shutter life to an estimated 800,000 frames. If needed, the auto focus is tweaked to optimum precision and the best part is, Southern Photo will warranty the shutter life as well. Lastly, the camera is “branded” with the word “Pro” by laser engraving for the vanity in all of us die hard Nikonians.
This project was the brainstorm of Jim Winters, one of Southern Photos valued customers. Years ago, Jim asked Isaac to beef up his prized new Nikon D3s and make it a “one of a kind camera” that every Nikon professional would dream to own.
Isaac is well known as one of the most knowledgeable and experienced camera technicians in the U.S. and has served as a factory-trained technician for more than 10 major camera manufacturers over the last 30 years. Isaac used his vast experience to develop several modifications that would greatly reduce general camera maintenance by reducing overall wear and tear to increase reliability and product value.
Within hours of showing the camera to a few of Jim’s friends a few years ago, phone orders for a D3s Pro started pouring in from other South Florida photographers that use Southern Photo for all their photographic service and repair needs. Now the “D4 Pro’ has been born!!
What does it cost to modify your prized Nikon D4 and turn it into a “Pro”?? A straight up $500.00 or what Isaac says is less than 10% of the retail cost of a New D4.
What do you get??
Enhanced weather proofing seals
Additional dust traps installed in critical areas
Shutter enhancement, warranted for 800,000 frames
Precision Auto Focus calibration adjustment (When needed)
The word “Pro” will be laser engraved to “identify” and “increase the resale value” of the camera.
Enjoy a beefed up, more reliable camera that has a track record of reduced sensor cleanings.
