Cons:Slightly heavy files.... but with 36mpx it's normal
Opinion:I bought this camera used. It immediately became confidencial, not at all complicated. A full frame that has nothing to envy to the very modern mitorless. Slow burst, it's definitely not for sports photography. Great for everything else. No motion blur found, and it does not turn green. Highly recommend, it is found at great prices and you have a professional machine
Opinion:As a former owner of a D800, a Z6 and now a Sony, I spend a few words for this D800 that when I had the opportunity to buy it, 6 years ago, used, broke my heart because it was the first Nikon FF that I could get my hands on. I was amazed by the high ISO tightness and by high ISO I mean from 1600 upwards, a non-typical use that is often bread for my teeth since I often "play" when the light just isn't there. Then one day at an event I met a person who, with the same optics (the legendary 20 1.8 FX but he with the FTZ), aperture, time and ISO, sent me the file the next day by email and I was stunned to the point that after a week I had already sold the D800 and taken the Z6 that I kept until recently, exactly when I had the opportunity to try a shot with the 33 mp sensor that equips the Sony & IV and once again I was stunned and I made the leap of the quail leaving (forever, by the way) Nikon. Looking back at the D800 files, I realize what development and research in the technological field means. But especially looking at the electric viewfinder and thinking back to the old viewfinder of the D800 I realize why DSLRs are leaving the market more and more rapidly. On the other hand, one does not always shoot in broad daylight with the sun high or in well-lit environments. If we then talk about the dynamics of the sensors between that of the D800 and that of the Sony, well... Let's leave it at that. With the Sony I recover 3 full stops in the shadows, with the D800 it was runny grease if I recovered one.
Opinion:My first comment is to thank TONY55 for his: that's exactly how I understand the ART of Light. The rest are just BLABLABLA's performances. Thanks also go to those commentators, even "strict" ones, who allowed me to buy all my Nikons (many...) and all the Canons (many...) within six months with the knowledge that they are all fabulous cameras. An excellent critical judgment is perfectly linked to what Tony55 wrote: the Philosophy of ART is the basis of everything and it is only on the basis of this that the photographs of even two centuries ago take on an eternal character. ARS ET VITA LONGA to all
Pros:Great professional body, dynamic range, great resolution, ergonomics, colors, efficiency and a lot more
Cons:Nobody
Opinion:Hello everyone. I've been a member for a couple of years and when I have a few minutes of time I look out reading some reviews without ever having published anything. Leafing through the various pages I found myself here and being happily an owner of some nikons including the D800 I thought I would write my review as I mainly use the same camera as a professional (I deal with Graphics, advertising photography and more). What about a camera body like the D800? I would like to remember when a few decades ago the FM2 FE2 The F3 that I used for my photo shoots, were the masters and did not have the attributes of digital cameras in terms of metering, motorization, LCD viewer, software, image stabilization and much more. In spite of everything, the photographer carried out his professional service properly. Remember that the world is full of advertising images, photos in books of all kinds made using old analog SLRs. Today we find ourselves taking a census of monsters such as the D 600 750 800 810 850, to name a few, with a list of all the defects found. It makes me smile at the weight of how well we worked even then! My opinion is that a body like the D800 is only to be appreciated and has everything to be able to represent Perfection despite the subsequent cameras and today the mirrorless born only for Marketing reasons. I often compare images taken with the latest ones and I find no difference to confirm that to take a good photo you need creativity, good optics and a lot of commitment and craft. It is also true that it has now become a fashion to change digital a bit like mobile phones, so it is no wonder and manufacturers know it well. The D800 has no limits and produces images with a sensor that is still respectable today, capable of producing files comparable to the best of today. Well, I think he'll work with me until the end. For the rest, it's all talk. IRREPLACEABLE!!!
Pros:Technological advancement, yield, construction, ergonomics, battery life
Cons:micro-blur if you do not pay attention to the shooting technique
Opinion:Purchased in mid-2012 and used until the end of 2017, the D800 was the turning point at Nikon of my photographic era. Industry-leading and unparalleled camera, it finally offered high resolution in a Pro body without compromising for a portraitist (compromises were certainly felt in other fields of photography). Battery of remarkable duration, especially if combined with a second in battery grip, sensor and sharpness leader for the time, it was still a pro body, a body not at all light and a very dense sensor. The main negative point was given by the fact that all these things left the photographer a flawless shooting technique or the use of very conservative shutter speeds to avoid shake. In retrospect the only better choice I could have made at the time would have been to take the E version.
