Why? 750 and 810 have less noise and better on hi iso. Why did you prefer 5d mark iii?

Thank you Gustavo!

Rattu If you don't have a large collection of lenses - the D750 offers lots to love.

Rattu in the same boat.

Rattu Its the best Cam you can get in my opinion. Feels great in hand, makes one of the best Pictures and its just FUN to shoot with it ;)

It seems wise to jump ship from Canon unless you are really not happy about using adapters, they released the 7D Mark II which has worse IQ than the entry level Nikons. That company doesn't really seem to care about improving their sensors and they are really falling behind, I think the 5D Mark III has been bested by other full frame cameras too, at least from IQ perspectives. DXOMark rates many cameras above the 5D but I know the overall package is also important.

In my opinion benchmark for 2012 was Nikon D800/D800E

ObelixCMM As measured by resolution - absolutely! It just is difficult to rank cameras definitively across the board.

trevorpinnocky I love my new GH4! Partly because it feels so DSLR like in the hand and comfortable, I can find all the buttons without taking my eye from the viewfinder and partly because it is fun to shoot video for all the reasons you said.

CameraRec Toby OP claimed that Canon set benchmark in 2012 with 5d mk III which was an upgrade of 5d mk II, good one but still upgrade. Where Nikon D800/800E was first of the kind and benchmark camera of 2012

+Eric Boreen Thanks Eric.

Early black friday deal I just found on the Nikon D810 on ebay.to/2geaR9R with usa warranty $500 cheaper than amazon

Donnie Whitaker I was a canon user for years switch to Nikon and omg love it the best I ever did. Canon is so behind my images improved draminicallay so noticeable

It remains a great camera!

hiya Doc! Nice Camera!

Erin Taylor I agree 100%

Thanks Rome - Glad I could help and please share any thoughts you have after using both cameras for an extended period of time.

Eddie White Thank you!

I hear rumors of a high end panasonic coming. You also have the NX1 from Samsung producing some sweet video, hard to work with right now though.

+i7rs The new D750 sensor has fixed the green tint!

+jshaw6600 Are you sure about that? I shoot with Nikon but I definitely agree that Canon has better skin tones and is more natural. Must be the Canon glass which I hear is superior compared to Nikon glass.

crxracer805 From what I've read, and from what I've seen from shooting my own D750, yes I'm sure. Canon glass is barely better in image quality. It's not noticeable because Nikon's sensors usually outshine Canon's. Canon has more lens options though.

Michael Manion I'm thinking the same should I leave canon ? I have the 6D

Hi do you find the Nikon D750 better build as the front is carbon fiber.....so did you notice any problem with the grip feeling like a cheap plastic 😛 or something like that as mostly all Full Frames have the grip protion with magnesium alloy expect the Nikon D750.

Just wanted to know as about to buy one 😌

Hi Akash, I was in many stores to check a bunch of cameras (even Canon and Sony Products) for my own. Its only my personal opinion, but for me the Nikons are the best in ergonomic and comfort. sony was too small for my personal flavor, canon feels like plastic (rly dont like those big bombers) and Nikon was great in my hands ^^. D750 was smaller than 810 but feels soooo great. carbon fiber feels rly rly good :) Mb you need to test it for your own. My other reasons for the D750... - less noise ratio (better than d810 and every canon on the market) at high iso - great dynamic range - fast camera I rly love that camera. Its my first FullFrame Cam, before I got an Olympus DSLR plus Panasonic. best regards

KampfQ thank you mate I'm looking up to grab a D750 i had canon 70D just used about 4months but image quality in low light was not appreciated so had to sell it and now turning to full frame and thank God i didn't bought any "L lens" it would have made me to stick towards canon 😄 Hopefully m free Nikon is the way now..!!

KampfQ Update if you think it's still worth it?

Thanks Joe - happy to answer any questions you have after watching.

Tomas Ramoska Another commenter helpfully suggested you can reassign the video record button as ISO switch but I agree that original placement is sub optimal. And yes those Canon lenses are lovely, lovely lenses - you forgot the 85 f/1.2 too :)

I do not for a moment think Canon makes better glass. And I would put Sigma art lenses against any L glass. But the funny thing is I find Nikon egomonics really intuitive.

Erin Taylor We love our Sigma 50 and 35 but there is still no equal to the 85 and the 70-200.

PhotoRec Toby I have a 70-200 F4 that I dearly love. I am not a portrait person so for me zooms are less limiting. I do wildlife and landscapes. A lot of birds in flight. One surprising lens that I LOVE is the new Sigma sport 150-600 sport. its optically astounding for the price of 2K. Thats why broad brush stroke statements like some threads below completely ignore the application the photographer is looking for. Thanks for a great review. So much of gear is personal preference, and if you are good, you can get a good image with any camera. Cheers!

Erin Taylor That sigma is a huge lens - did you see my recent review on that and the other big zooms? photorec.tv/2015/01/big-zoom-field-review/

Lucky! I want that camera so bad! What fx lenses you use/recommend? I already have a Tamron 70-200 f2.8 and it's an amazing lens! I also got the 50mm 1.8G.

+crxracer805 got fx 24-120 kit and 50mm 1.8 saving up for few more lens

I got the d750 now for almost a year and am very happy with it. I went to NYC with it, a pretty demanding trip with hours and hours of walking around with the camera. The grip is so good, even after 6 hours of holding it, it still feels safe and pleasant. The viewfinder is big and clear, the High-ISO performance is amazing, and the tilt-screen allows me to take photos from difficult perspectives. In my opinion this is an amazing camera.

I have the Nikkor 50mm 1.4g, the Nikkor 85mm 1.8g and the Nikkor 20mm 1.8g. These are amazing lenses for a reasonable price. I can really recommend them.

I would be highly interested in this also.

+Sudipto Sen What kind of shooting do you do?

+Sudipto Sen > I sold my A7II just last week, had it for 6 months and just never did like the hunting it did trying to get focus in low light ... IT SUCKED!....it just didn't cut it. My D750 should be in this week!

+PhotoRec TV i want to know the ans too. I'm an enthusiast travel photographer and my requirements is from 16/18 to 50mm mostly with slightly fast lens options. I know a7ii could be a great camera but with the full frame fe mount lenses on specially something like 16-35 the so called "compactness" is not there anymore anyway but what going with d750 i would gain i guess is a better constructed body, better autofocus and lot more cheaper lens options such as nikon 18-35, tamron 28-76/24-70 and 70-200. Please advise.

Really what happens to nikon when sony stops selling them sensors????? down the toilet they go. I shoot sony so I could care less but at least Canon develops there own technology.

M Coop Apparently that won't be true for much longer according to rumors. Canon seems to be setting up to start purchasing Sony sensors.

floex831 Those rumors turned out to be completely false:)

M Coop Why would Sony stop selling sensors to Nikon? It is one of their main revenues....Even if Canon makes its own sensor, but why the end user should care and pay allegiance to the company for that....??? It doesn't make sense...what matter is the best product for you, regardless of who makes it... Besides, It is not only the sensor that makes Nikon picture quality (DR and Color bit) is good, but also Nikon software. Sony and Nikon are using the same sensors but Nikon's picture quality is better than Sony's I think.

yep, keyword: you think

Both are excellent cameras. I really like the articulating screen of the Nikon along with wifi- neither honestly important to image quality but they make the camera a more versatile tool for general photography.

Ended up getting the D610 hahah

@@crxracer805 thinking of getting the 610 also, what are your thoughts on it ?

@@5ups973 Hahaha, funny how you ask now. I'm actually thinking of selling it this month (D610). It's not very quick. It is slow to focus. The colors are beautiful though however, the D700 is a much better camera. It's quick, built like a tank and produces gorgeous colors. It's so amazing that I might actually get a 2nd D700, not kidding. I reccomend the D700 over the D610 by a long shot. Much cheaper too.

Well it's performs way better for stills, and I believe it's on par with video. And you have to think about the companies as a whole too. Canon are slow and are lagging way behind the competition while Nikon is actually pushing themselves all the time. So if you're not already heavily invested in Canon glass it would be a good idea to switch imo.

abdullah alanizy Depends on what and where you are shooting but the D810 is an excellent beast of a camera and will give you some serious resolution. I do agree that Canon skin tones often look nicer to me too. It may just be that I am more used to the look.

oBLACKIECHANoo you mean sony right? since nikon uses sony sensors.

M Coop Funny, sony sensors, but Nikon know how. Outsourced sensors to not a camera make. Nikon exceeds Sony DR and color depth cannot match Nikon. Your statement is pointless.

without that sensor though your point is mute!!!!!!!!!!!!! No sensor no camera....

all the roads will eventually lead to fullframe anyways

The main "real world" differences between these cameras would probably be autofocus performance and the articulating screen. In terms of IQ there is very little between them. What I would point out though is that if you put rubbish glass in front of a 24mp sensor the difference in camera bodies won't make much difference - so if buying the D610 allows you to get better glass it might be worth considering. Personally I'd say the extra functionality of the D750 is worth the extra money. Either would be sufficient to produce good enough results for paid work (with the right lenses). You might also want to consider a D7100. It is relatively noisy but MUCH cheaper, and again if you put nice FX glass in front of it you can produce outstanding results as well as future-proofing for body upgrades as your photographic skills improve. In real world terms: for the same price as a D750 body-only, you could pretty much buy a D7100 with a pro lens. If you are on a budget it's about where the best use of your investment is going to be - and most pros will tell you it's in the glass rather than the bodies.

James Willerton Thank you very much, James. D7100 is not an option for me because i really wanna switch to full frame. Won't put kit lenses on the FX cam. i'm considering to buy the 50mm 1.8 G or 1.4G for the FX Body. later i will buy a pro zoom but thats not an option right now. I had a Nikon d300s with a few lenses but unfortunately sold it for the fuji, which i love, but i should never have sold my dslr. The autofocus of fuji may be good not never on par with a dslr and the fix lens is just too limiting. I'd consider the higher price of the D750 but if the difference between this cam and the d610 is not too big. I won't shoot sports in low light for example i'd rather buy the d610. I shoot portraits and landscapes and most during traveling.

***** I have the 50mm 1.8G and it's a nice lens to use. I hear what you're saying about full frame: however your logic for considering the D610 against the D750 (bearing in mind your usage) also applies to the D7100 against the D610. Take a look at the Tokina 11-16mm DX reviews for your landscape work. For portraits I use either the 50mm (although it's a little wide), or the 70-300mm VR FX lens. If you have a limited budget, personally I'd be looking at getting the glass first (ideally FX-compatible) and compromising more on the body, where it will make less difference. If weight/size are also an issue, again the D7100 might score points against the full frames. Of course it is your decision to make, I just suspect sometimes people feel railroaded into "full frame" when their needs actually don't warrant it against the much cheaper DX bodies.

James Willerton Yeah i understand your point, james. Thing is i really like working with shallow depth of field and in low light. I heard that the d7100 is an amazing camera. I used the D300s a long time back then. So i know about the pros and cons of DX. Actually i think its time for a step up now so i guess FX is my choice. I will keep the Fuji as a great light croped sensor camera when low weight is important. I might go with the D750. Still a compromise compared to a D810 but thats just way too much for me. I also thought about the Fuji XT-1 but its way overpriced imho. With lens it costs nearly as much as the D750. And the D750 is just way ahead.

***** Well if you've got your heart set on full frame, I'd go back to what I said before, that the improvements in real-world usability probably make the D750 worth the extra. The ability to compose shots from low or high angle I think adds creative options, it's the best low-light performer (IQ and autofocus) and overall it's just a more rounded investment. You might be pleasantly surprised at just how much shadow detail these modern sensors in the Nikons can recover. Your lens choices might be more difficult than the camera body actually, to get you a working system again. I don't know what you had before with the D300s; however there are some decent budget options (such as the 70-300mm VR I mentioned). I'd be tempted to take a look at the 85mm 1.8G alongside the 50mm if you're looking for a portrait lens, or the 85mm Samyang 1.4 manual focus.

I’ve been doing a ton of research and the D750 takes the cake! I have a D7500 and for the price I love it so much! Got dual zoom for $899. Great for sports action, portraits and everything you need. Does well in low light though not as well as D750. D750 is priced really well and hailed the king of event photography

What am I picking nits about? You would wish that Nikon gets more credit for the Image quality? Fair enough- they were smart and partnered with Canon :) But I do agree some of the quality comes from the processor too.

PhotoRec Toby​​​ guess I should've compiled my info better on your nit picking. Honestly I forgot right after I commented. Me 0, you 1. Are you saying smart for Nikon to partner with Canon or Sony with Canon? Can't wait to hear an official announcement on that! Heavy rumors on Canon and Sony. Thanks for your feedback, Toby. 

floex831 I too am very interested to hear if this Canon/Sony partnership is real.

Exactly. Nikon image processing is simply better. And while Canon is currently making some amazing AF improvements, I will think Nikon takes a better image. And AF is never an issue for me.

Or the new D780. How important is video to you? Go mirrorless if it is.

***** That is excellent to know! Thank you!

Is that only for video / live view or does that work for anything?

Todd Davis It will work anywhere except in Live View Video mode.

I was hoping I just missed that on my D7100 manual, lol, so I looked... No luck.. That is a huge thing. The ISO button is so out of the way and the double duty for it is annoying

nikon d750 is enough for now or waiting for the next succesor?

Thank you!
