D750 - the perfect camera !? ;-)

[Solarflare]

What ? No thread about this ?

Nikon D750 specifications leaked online | Nikon Rumors

A quick update on my last post - that Nikon D750 listing also contained some camera specifications. No surprises so far from what I have already been reporting (Google translation):

• Nikon D750 FX 24.3 MP full frame sensor features compact, lightweight, energy efficient design, built-in flash double SD card slot
• Tiltable 3.2-inch RGB monitor with approximately 1.2 million pixels
• Robust design and sealing against weather influences
• New, improved mirror / shutter mechanism
• AF system with 51 focus areas
• RGB sensor with approx 91,000 pixels and light-weighted metering option
• Burst rate of 6.5 frames/s
• 24.3-megapixel FX-format CMOS sensor
• Image processor EXPEED 4
• ISO 100-12,800 (expandable to 50-51200)
• Effects Modes
• Improved Picture Control
• Full-HD video with 1080p at 24/25/30/50 / 60p
• Improved functionality while filming
• Integrated stereo microphone
• Exposure preview and aperture control in Live View mode
• Built-in Wi-Fi Professional Wireless communication via UT-1 and WT-5

I have to say I am most highly pleased.

Three issues I hated about my D600:
- Autofocus. Just a too small Autofocus field.
- Tiltscreen. I always missed it dearly. Seems like we'll only get a tiltscreen and not a flipscreen, but oh well.
- Shutter dirt issue (just annoying, even if I never encountered any problem with actual images, but for resale value and because on the test shots it showed up I got me a new shutter).

And yes - all fixed !!! Whow !!!!! Plus, WiFi. And better mirror/shutter. And I would guess probably no AA-Filter (the D5300 has none, the D7100 has none, the D810 has none - so why would the D750 still have one ?).

Its as if I was actually working at Nikon, or something.

All in all, this sounds like the PERFECT Nikon camera to me. Want. Now !!!

It does seem like an impressive list of features. Do we see an upgrade in your near future?

It would be hard for me to change to Nikon, but I admit that the D810 has me considering it.

1. the autofocus field on the D710* won't be that measureably larger. Compare the 39pt to 51pt fields. You get an extra "row" of points. Both have three rows of 11-points but the D800 has a slightly wider spread, then you get 6 extra points on the top and bottom rows repectively where the D600 has only 3 on each.
2. I still highly doubt they'll do a tilt screen.
3. meh. not a big issue imho.

I suspect this camera with be a bridge between the D600 and D800. Similar body to the D600 but the focus/processor of the D800 with other imaging improvements on the same 24MP sensor without AA screen.

I think if that's the case it will sell very well.

*I also think it'll come out as the D710.

I do eventually need to get a back up camera. My luck is going to run out one day haha

I'd love to move up to it but I'm sure the $$$ will prevent that any time soon.

FYI ... there's other threads about it

Now all that is left to do is wait for the official press release.

 

[shadowlands]

Can't wait to learn if it will have the more D810 type of body or D610 type of body.
I think the flip screen tells the story that It may be more consumer grade.

 

[Braineack]

I predict identical body to D610 and if an articulating screen: swivel; not tilt.

 

[shadowlands]

swivel not tilt... interesting... a little more safe, I would imagine...

 

[DevC]

I just love the moments before a release.

Jitters!

I like...

• Built-in Wi-Fi Professional Wireless communication via UT-1 and WT-5

but this makes me go 'hmmmm'...

• Tiltable 3.2-inch RGB monitor with approximately 1.2 million pixels

• Robust design and sealing against weather influences

A Tiltable display would create lots of places water and dust can enter the camera. Doesn't matter how well you seal.. movable parts create problems.

I hope the tiltable screen rumor turns out to be false.

I'm not impressed with how that body looks.

 

[Braineack]

I'm not impressed with how that body looks.

Not impressed with how a d610 looks with the model number changed?

Not impressed with how a d610 looks with the model number changed?

I'd be excited if it has an AF-ON button. I actually held a d610 in the camera store and they let me play around with it. Honestly, it's not as bad as I've read about online.
