D750 - the perfect camera !? ;-)

[480sparky42 42]

Lets list:

+ Most lightweight Nikon DSLR thanks to new body

FX compared to DX bodies?

+ Only full frame DSLR with a tiltscreen

I couldn't care less about a tilt screen.

+ Only Nikon full frame DSLR with dual sd card slots

Huh? What rock did you just crawl out from under?

+ Newest AF chip (better in lowlight than even D810 and D4s)

I don't shoot indoor sports, weddings, or much in the way of moonlit action shots. So that's not a biggie for me.

+ Finally Magnification on OK button, just like D700, D800 etc

Wow. They retasked a function from one button to another to mimic two bodies I've never shot with. Should I drop to my knees and say thanks?

+ Almost all Video Features of the D810

I rarely shoot video. So again, it's not a feature I would care about.

+ Battery life improved to D810 levels and beyond

Again.... an improvement that does not affect me. My current body & battery set-up serves me just fine, TYVM.

To me, the D750 fixes the two main issues I had with the D600 ... and gives me quite a bit extra, too !

Nothing much for me, however.

The 750 is being touted as a 'sport' camera. As I don't shoot sports, it really has nothing over a 600 that I can use.

I'm not dissing the camera. I'm just not the target market for it.

Correct me if i'm wrong... but this camera doesn't seem to be weather sealed.

In the press release they talk about the new 'monocoque' body (carbon fiber composite & magnesium alloy) and how "The great maneuverability afforded by a size suited to a variety of shooting conditions greatly expands shooting possibilities for users."

Nothing about being sealed from the elements.. (All the Dx, D8x0 & D7x00 press releases talk about how they are weather sealed).

• No dedicated AF-ON button..
• 1/4000 Shutter (Nikon | Imaging Products | Nikon D750)
• Not weather sealed

Looks like we have the D5300 of the FX line...

this is why rumors are stupid. but:

Built with a monocoque construction featuring carbon fiber at the front and a magnesium alloy on the rear and top, this new camera is also weather-sealed and gasketed to keep moisture and dust out.

Looks like we have the D5300 of the FX line...

except it will be better than the D5300 in almost every regard. This will be the FX equiv. to the D7100.

You'd need a 1/8000 shutter and weather sealing to be a D7100.

Where is that quote about weather sealing from?

According to this it's environmentally sealed. I have read this elsewhere also

I found it.. one little line on the DPR specifications page.

If its true, Nikon should put it on its pages.

oh i didn't realize Nikon had specs up ( i don't tend to follow rumor mill). i was wrong on a few things, but correct on a lot of others.

I'm wondering if Nikon is expecting shooters to use ISO 50 and 1/4000 in lew of 1/8000 when necessary? I'd figure they'd just use the same shutter from the D800.

Or ISO 50 AND 1/8000th [emoji106]

I personally haven't had the need to shoot at 1/8000. I think the highest I've needed was 1/3200 or 1/4000. I don't think it's anything a ND filter can't cure. I don't have a d600. I want a new body but man, I wish it had a AF on button. Everything else works for me. I'm on the fence between this and the 610. If I need a fast body I can always pull out the d700 but the price difference between the 750 and 610 isn't a lot.

No clue. But the options there on my D800, haha.

In all seriousness, I have used 1/8000th for wide open shooting on a bright day and ISO 50 for landscape stuff. So it's nice to have both extremes.

See- for me, it won't affect me. The only thing that I don't like aside from no AF on is the lack of a PC port. I don't use it often but when something goes wrong( and is has) a manual cable has saved my arse lol. Of course you can always buy an adaptor but still- that's one small thing. It's just a beefed up AF on a d600/610.
