Thread: New Nikon

I've never used a Nikon before but see a few pros using them love my Canon at the moment.

One of my brothers has the D800,uses it for work and loves it.

For me it is the cannon 5DMk3.
The other day i had to use the old 60D,as SWMBO was using the 5D.

Until you go back to using the old model,you forget how good the later models are.

Would be nice (the Nikon 810) but I'm afraid its way out of my budget.....(sigh).

Guess I'll have to stick with my Nikon D5100. Which, incidently I am very happy with. I kind of like the Nikon Df though, it reminds me of the Nikon FM2 film camera I used to use all those years ago.

Wonder why the Df hasn't got video capabilities though????

Having had a D800e for over a year now the D810 would only improve on it. There are only two issues: you need to be use good lenses, you really notice a poor lens on these cameras and secondly you need stability so a tripod or monopod gets a lot more use. I'm not upgrading but I'd definitely recommend getting one.

I have just gone from a d5000 to a d7100...nice upgrade.

Cheers

Nikon D810 . If only I could afford it

I recently received a mail flyer from a local camera store introducing it and offering "a special introductory deal". I looked at the price and thought the deal needs to be a lot more special. Bloody hell, aren't they expensive.

Unfortunately that's the way it is with full frame cameras.
