## Overview

The Nikon D810 is a professional-grade FX-format DSLR featuring a 36.3MP CMOS sensor without an optical low-pass filter, delivering exceptional image detail and dynamic range. Powered by a 30% faster EXPEED 4 processor, it offers 5 fps continuous shooting and a sophisticated 51-point autofocus system with 3D tracking. Its ISO range of 64-12,800 (expandable to 51,200) ensures superb low-light performance. The camera also supports Full HD 1080p video with advanced audio controls, making it a versatile tool for photographers and videographers seeking uncompromised quality and speed.

## Description

Harness the power of extreme resolution, jaw-dropping image quality and huge dynamic range in both stills and Full HD 1080p video applications. A newly designed 36.3 megapixel FX-format full-frame image sensor with no optical low-pass filter is paired with the thrilling performance of EXPEED 4 for staggering detail retention, noise-free images from ISO 64 to ISO 12,800, fast frame rates, cinematic video capabilities, in-camera editing features and outstanding energy efficiency. For still and multimedia photographers, The D810 will ignite your creativity and help you capture images that astound. For cinematographers and camera operators, the D810 will become one of the most versatile tools in your arsenal. The D810 will expand your vision and make you rethink what’s possible. Sensor size is 1.41 x 0.94 in inches. For moving subjects camera focuses continuously while shutter release button is pressed halfway. If subject moves camera will engage predictive focus tracking to predict final distance to subject and adjust focus as necessary. At default settings shutter can be released whether or not subject is in focus. When the shutter release button is pressed halfway, the colors in the area surrounding the focus point are stored in the camera. Consequently 3d tracking may not produce the desired results with subjects that are similar in color to the background or that occupy a very small area of the frame.

Review: Using either my 105 mm macro lens or the 70 to 200 mm telephoto lens produced excellent results. When zooming in during post pro - After taking about 500 pix I can say that this camera is a step up from the D800. The biggest change is the focusing speed as well as the elimination of the blur in the D800 that was apparently due to the image sensor filter. Using either my 105 mm macro lens or the 70 to 200 mm telephoto lens produced excellent results. When zooming in during post processing the detail is preserved and produces great 8.5 x 11 photos even after heavy cropping. I feel (which is subjective) that the color is more rich on the D810 than on the D800 but that may just be my perception. Focusing is very fast and at one point I thought I was on "Manual" focus mode since I didn't hear the lens motor working but after further testing it was focusing just fine. And very rarely does the focusing get lost like in past "D" series camera where it would hunt and seek for several seconds before locking in on the subject. However, focusing in very low light conditions still is not perfect and at times does not focus like it does in normal lighting conditions. This really isn't a limitation for the kinds of pictures that I take. I haven't really compared the noise between the ISO 3200 and 6400 settings as I never really had to go above 3200 for the pictures that I take. I find that most indoor and wedding environments have sufficient light to be able to use ISO settings of 3200 and below. The results are just fine. The newly formed grip does provide a bit different feel over the D800 grip, However, it isn't that significant in my mind. The "Quiet" shutter is a good feature and keeps the shutter noise level down for quiet moments. The AF-ON button is a bit of a reach for me but then again I have short fingers. Setting up the various focusing or exposure modes is very easy and is accomplished by using the LCD screen. The layout of the various controls and especially the monitor menu are layed out very well and there never is a time when one has to hunt to change a function. This isn't always true on other cameras that I have owned. The D810 has upgraded many of the video functions over the D800. However, given that I don't do much video I will not comment on any of these changes. However, it is nice to know that top quality video is capable with the D810. The only negative was that the first D810 I received locked up within a week and I had to take the battery out in order to get it to work again. This occurred several times and after discussion with Nikon service department they determined that the camera was defective and to return it. This only occurred under certain conditions and was repeatable. This must have been a quirk with that given unit as the new unit works flawlessly. I contacted desertcart about the problem and given their absolutely superior return policy I had a brand new D810 in less than 24 hours. Can't say enough about how well I was treated by desertcart regarding their return policy. I give them 10 STARS. Yes.........I would recommend the D810 to anyone who wants/needs a high quality DSLR camera.
Review: An amazing camera for wedding photography - I have been using this camera for almost 5 years now mostly for wedding photography, and it is so wonderful that I am about to replace it with the exact same model. This one is coming up to the end of it's shutter-life because I have used it so much and incase you don't know: cameras have life expectancies kinda like a car's mileage. The shutter-expectancy for this one is about 200,000 shutters I believe, and I've started having some issues with it (freezing, stalling, strange lines and things on images here and there) now that I've gotten to about 180,000 shutters, but I also am very often having to subject my camera to hours in direct sun in 100º+ weather so I kind of expect it to poop out on me a little early. That is still a good life for most cameras though, and it has been extremely reliable before now. The lenses you use are extremely important, the difference in image quality between one of $150 lenses and and my favorite 50mm sigma lens (I think it was about $600-$700) is massive, despite being the same camera. The photos in this review are using the sigma lens. Other points of awesomeness: The speed in low-light situations is unmatched by any camera any of my photography friends have, and being able to bump that ISO way up is amazing, especially for sparkler send-offs if you want to keep the ambiance and not use a flash. With my flash on I can freeze motion easily without having to bring the ISO higher than 800-1000 and I love that it keeps the golden tones of background lights unlike some Canon's that I've seen. The quiet mode is really nice when shooting a wedding that is very ..quiet. Sometimes a church will have a lot of echo, and while the quiet mode doesn't make it silent it does slow down the sound and take the edge off which helps a lot with reducing how much attention it draws. The megapixels.. I can shoot a wedding ceremony entirely on a 50mm from far-ish away if I want to and then just zoom in and crop some of them to have close-ups. Shoot on f/2 and they'll be sharp as a tack.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Wonder is is a good choise a nikon 24-70 f2.8 with no VR reduction or a 24-120 f4 with VRII for hand held photo**
A: I have both the Nikon 24-70 f/2.8 and the new Sigma 24-105mm F 4.0 DG OS HSM Art Lens and find the Sigma to be a far better walkabout lens. Interestingly, I find the images taken with the Sigma 24-105m to be appear sharper than those produced by the Nikon 24-70, both on a tripod (with image stabilization off) and handheld (with IS on). At half the cost and with the bonus of IS, it's worth trying the Sigma for yourself if you can live with f4 versus the f2.8 of the Nikon 24-70.Sigma Corporation 635306 24-105mm F 4.0 DG OS HSM Zoom Lens for Nikon Cameras

**Q: Would the Nikon 24-120 f/4 lens be a good match for this camera, or would the 24-70 f/2.8 be a much better choice for the best resolution?**
A: I have both the Nikon 24-70 f/2.8 and the new Sigma 24-105mm F 4.0 DG OS HSM Art Lens.I found the Sigma 24-105 f/4.0 to produce sharper looking images than the Nikon 24-70, both on a tripod (with image stabilization off) and handheld (with IS on). At half the cost and with the bonus of IS, it's worth trying for yourself.http://www.amazon.com/Sigma-Corporation-635306-24-105mm-Cameras/dp/B00G6K4TXC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412104555&sr=8-1&keywords=Sigma+24-105+Art+nikon

**Q: Does the camera come with its own warranty (Nikon Warranty) or do you have to buy the insurance?**
A: Nikon D810 FX camera body do I have to buy the extended  insurance?

**Q: Where was this d810 manufactured (this one advertized on Amazon) ?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by G***H on November 24, 2014*

Fantastic camera. However, be careful on the warranty aspect of the camera provided through Amazon. The camera I bought was the best price I could find. When they shipped, I realized it was coming from the US - so I raised the issue about warranty. Turns out the warranty was through them, and they are not an authorized Nikon dealer. When pushed some more, they said the warranty was for 1 year, whereas Nikon normally has a 2 year warranty. I returned the camera and purchased it locally, where I could have solutions if a problem arises. In the past I have had problems with my pop up flash, and the spot metering. The camera itself is a dream. The pictures it takes is absolutely stunning. Here is a low light picture using a Tokina 100mm f2.8 macro lens.
