Pros: Magnesium alloy body, precise self focus, high iso and burst shot.

Cons: nothing

Opinion: I purchased this reflex body for sunrise and sunset shots. I have a Nikon D810 that I use for itinerant naturalistic photography and I have supported the Nikon D4 that I use paired with the Sigma sport in order to also be able to shoot in low light conditions where the Nikon D810 struggles to hook the subjects. What amazed me about the Nikon D4 and the burst shot of 11fps and according to some time tests would approach 12 fps. I personally adjust it to 8 fps and it is also good for fast subjects such as small birds and 16.2 megapixels are good for prints of a certain size and beyond. Ultimately, even if after that there are the subsequent bodies the Nikon D4 still knows how to say its in professional photography and can be combined with any original and third-party lens. I'm really happy with the purchase you made. In nikon d4's mouth.

Pros: professional reflex of the past

Cons: Indestructible

Opinion: I would say that I was a little skeptical to give my opinion on this reflex, not because I did not have an overall judgment, but because maybe in my opinion I would be biased. I start from the point that I own two bodies NIKON D4 , both with several shots behind, one 803000 shots and just replaced shutter with full reflex calibration, the other with 765000 shots not yet replaced shutter but with reflex review just Performed. So I would say that at least a small judgment I can give. The files he churns out are of remarkable quality,' they will say a lot that 16 million pixels are now a little scarce, but I'm not one to shoot and then it starts to cut out the detail that I need, for me the shot is that and I don't do more kinds of interventions like that , I do not need to cut out a detail, that I do already before using the most suitable lens in that situation. She is my companion in many parts of the world, and she has never disappointed me, indeed i was more and more surprised by the totalquality of both the reflex body, the electronics, and the sensor that churns out Files ready in jpeg and raw to be adjusted almost a few times. Right now I do not know with what body to replace, for me they are fine so, maybe in the future mirrorless, but will they be so safe, spartan and resistant as these? For posterity, the harsh sentence. Thank you all. I take the trouble off

Pros: Current despite age, if your intent is to take pictures.

Cons: Probably the 16 Mpx, but to work they are fine if we count that the D5 has just 4 more.

Opinion: I bought this car just a few days ago, in 2020. Because? I needed a second body machine to accompany my D750 which lately I use almost exclusively for sports photographs and reportage. I've been thinking about it for a long time: a second D750, a D500... However a new D750 would have been feasible, given the current prices, while the D500, also used, keeps a high price. In the end I set out to look for used flagships and came to the conclusion that if I found a D4 in good condition it could be the perfect compromise: more megapixels than the D3s, a more affordable price than the D4s (which anyway, Despite the always high price, around 3200-3500 euros, it is found with the shutter now near the end). So, thanks to a user of this site, I found a specimen held in a manic way, perfect in aesthetics and with so few shots that I can consider it new. I immediately got to work, very similar to the D750 in terms of menus, within a couple of hours I was already comfortable with the controls. A shutter that looks like a shotgun shot, a spectacular sensor: despite its age, it has little to envy to that of the D750. With the same conditions I have photos practically similar, indeed, to the high ISO, in my opinion, holds even a little better. And the thing that struck me the most is the cleaning of the files that churns out: they are perfect, with the advantage that they weigh less and therefore, to work, they are also more practical. The only "sin", if you will, the XQD card, but not so much for the card itself, but rather for the prices they have: the card is still very fast, nothing to say. If your intent is to take photographs, this machine, even today, is really the top, both for the sensor and for how it is built (a real tank). If you want a modern machine that allows you to take both photos and videos, go further (and in any case I would never take a flagship for that type of use, in fact, there are much less expensive solutions or, at the same price, there are dedicated tools that have many advantages over a video camera). With the life of the shutter that this machine has, I'm sure it will give me so much satisfaction for a very long time. If you find an opportunity like I did, you won't regret it.

Pros: All

Cons: If we want the weight but have it in hand is a pleasure

Opinion: I am a photography enthusiast and I come in order from D700... D800... D750... D810. Bhe ' The D4 is simply another planet, never a problem and bring home always shooting with high quality files ' and lightweight if we want. He hardly misses a shot! The camera body then has no comparisons with the others had before, simply excellent.

Pros: gust, buffer, sensor designed on Mars, arrangement of controls, ergonomics, high ISO, price buying it today in the used market.

Cons: For now no one

Pros: Almost everything

Cons: White with high ISO, little discreet shutter.

Opinion: Bought a few days ago, made a couple of test exits with sun. In comparison with d3s that I still have and that maybe I will have for a long time, I seem to have noticed some difficulty on the whites over 1600 iso, which with the d3s still managed to great even up to 12800, it is only a first impression and I reserve the right to correct myself in the future. For the rest is the great car that is and only have it in hand by total security. The shutter is heard even if its sound is music. Autofocus is an infallible, fast, sure, almost perfect sniper. The commands, even too many, are always where you expect them, but I would have preferred a button dedicated to the lock where there are others, the central of the joy does not always respond as it should and often moves the point of focus rather that lock it, you make the hand or maybe reprogram some key to the purpose.

Pros: ALL

Cons: maybe the weight, but it is a pleasure to feel this body in the hand

Opinion: I think I'm an amateur, I'm such a great cameraman, but after trying the D4 I found it on the D4s, and I sold my D810, according to my modest opinion I bought quality in all senses, light and quality files very high, the 36 megapixels of the D810 did not give me that feeling of wonder that gives me the D4s and use it on any occasion with satisfaction

Pros: body pro (solid, tropicalized, best hope for the D3 as well as tire degradation and deterioration), truly exceptional sensor, lightning operative, with all the keys in place (too many) to customize it, kept at the tall Iso at the levels you expect to find, AF that hardly "canna" photos .... there is not much else to add ... not tried in the videos, but for me it is a "service" almost useless ...

Cons: I've waited too much to change the already good D3 ..... rn I thought it was quieter in "discreet" mode, but nowadays I'm used to taking turns turning all of these neighbors ...

Opinion: taken recently, it is noticeable that the D3 is high up to the high Iso, improved and very much. Very easy to set up and use (but coming from a D3 ....), improved rnAF, especially in the "dynamic" setting, raw raw files (for me obviously) to work especially for a poor post (always me. ...; I work almost exclusively with Lightroom). It seems lighter, comparing it with the D3, at the same goal; I would have preferred double slot CF but ... you can not want everything from life! i have not yet had the opportunity to try the "burst", which I never or almost never run, battery with moooolta autonomy (I found it a new original reserve at 75 €, new costing a defect ...), I've tried it both in street and in landscaping, a lady car! rnAh ... the sensor is not "pumped" like many cameras of these Last time, it allows me to use the "old" lenses without looking at defects or cuts of sharpness,alongside the 20 mm Ais, with which it interacts with the big, making the photos really nice to be watched already in the monitor, which finally does not "appenni" more like that of the D3 ....

Pros: Reliability, ergonomics, image quality.

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: I do not just take a shot almost anywhere, even under difficult conditions and have a balanced sensor, with excellent image quality, low ISO and ISO high, and in my opinion provides better picture of the two D 810 I have, simply because it has the most natural colors. I tried the D5 and I did not take it because the ISO lows the image visibly worse than this. It does not create any optical problems even with the zoom and the prints are always sharp. It's the perfect handy camera, all kinds of photos, including landscapes for prints up to the A3 +, are already made.

Pros: Body Pro. High ISO resistance. Ergonomics and controls. Great customization. Extreme sharpness of the files. illuminated commands. Opening of the Magnificent shadows. AF at the top with a flurry of fear. Tropical. Sensor F A V or L or S O.

Cons: Not having had it before.

Opinion: What a machine...... a marvel. The controls, many, allow a great customization. The magnesium body is a fable to hold in the hand and has the Kevlar shutter. It has a crazy shadow recovery, the even great 7200, which I own as a second body, fails to make those recoveries. Produces raw detailed and very workable files. A barrage of fear, a machine gun, with a exceptional buffer. Infallible AF, of the highest qualitative level. Battery very large, but rather expensive, which allows an infinity of shots. The weight? Well, it's a reflex pro, of course there is, but for how it reciprocates, it would not matter to me, even if it weighed the double (small mole partly solved, buying a padded shoulder strap of the Manfrotto on Amazon). Beautiful The gem of the illuminated commands. The sensor? Crazy, a lighthouse in the dark, churns out files with a wonderful depth, almost three-dimensional. Shooting at 6400 ISO without noise is a very nice satisfaction. Also, it's tropicalised. I mean.... Wow!!!!!!!!!!!

Pros: Tank body, file quality, burst, iso hold.

Cons: Maybe the weight for someone ...

Opinion: Moved from D3 to this jewel, that is, it exhorts excellent files and allows you to shoot in any situation, good at high ISO and bursts very good for those who prefer sporting photos .... maybe a little heavy for someone but you do 'habit! AF fast and accurate even in situations with little light, which say ... Promote to full marks !!

Pros: Robustness, tropicalization, ergonomics, sensor, shooting speed, autofocus, dynamic range, high ISO output, responsiveness, night control lighting

Cons: Weight, but in the end the D800 with Battery Pack weighs more

Opinion: There is little to say and little to do: at these levels and these costs Nikon is sovereign. It's the perfect machine: accurate, reliable, robust never betrays and always takes the shot at home. Used for a few days after having Restored without any hesitation an EOS 5D mark II (really embarrassing machine, as well as 24/105 L series I had paired with ... but I was curious and I wanted to try ...). RnDo anyway the D4 surprised me The speed with which it can also be taken suddenly. The sensor is amazing and is the one from which the sensor of the DF comes, surely Nikon's masterpiece. If the Df adds a mysterious magic to the pictures it registers, that of the D4 is A precision, cleanliness, detail and ambiance, coupled with a precise, fast, relentless autofocus. I also do the D800 and comparing it to the D4 I can only say that the 16 mpx of the D4 keep it quiet. The burst then ... 11 Ftg per second of extraordinary effectiveness, sustained Full of autofocus, really leave the bee's mouthLta always lucible lights and shadows that can be opened at will. Digital noise needs to be practically committed to wanting to pull it out, pushing the sensitivity to the limits. In situations where you can hardly see the subject in the dark, the D4 focuses safely And pulls out images with colors and contrasts that are still faithful. Ergonomics are perfect: after having tried at all costs and unable to get used to the bizarre and limiting controls of Canon, it finally returns to normality - everything is efficient and is in place Where it must be ... Finally, promoted with the highest marks! Brava, Nikon!

Pros: BODY, COMPLETE CONTROLS, RAW QUALITY

Cons: WEIGHT

Opinion: After 750 and 810 days of tired orgasm and plasticosis I got frightened courage from the fewest pixels available on the sensor and came to this wonder.Force perfect files with excellent ruomore management up to 6400 iso and a threefold dimension.rnCerto It's a bit heavy but perfectly balanced in hand with commands that are a real treat for those who use it.

Pros: Pro body, incredible meter, burst, still sensing sensor

Cons: For those weaker I could say the weight ....

Opinion: There is not much to say, it is an exceptional machine. Stunning aluminum alloy body, controls in the right place and also illuminated, the ability to use both CF and XQD fast, galactic viewfinder, really handy grip, inexhaustible battery, shooting speed comparable to a machine gun, 400,000 shutter shutter, Excellent AF even with low light, sensor designed for Mars (only 16 mpxl, but shots to 6400 ISO and it looks like you're 400 ...) and much more. For this to buy a used one with a few clicks today, in the year of grace 2017, it can be one of the best deals for a loving cameraman or any professional. NOTICE: The writer is not an influencer or a guru, nor does one download pictures of others from the network to impute themselves to improbable comparisons. For almost forty years, a passionate nikonist of photography and photographic material has been, and my opinion is not a gospel, but only the result of empirical experience. The objects I write buy them realmentand, I play a few months and if I do not like giving them up, but always and in any case of material at the moment in my possession. I do not make the copy paste of reviews taken here and there on the net, if I'm talking about an item it's just and because I had in the house the time it took (at least months) to try to figure it out. I often go against current, but this does not take my sleep, as far as possible I try to help young aspiring photographers who give a weight to their savings. But, I repeat, I do not bring the verb ...

Pros: Body PRO, convenient controls, complete and be illuminated in the dark and tropical, fast, and do not just mean the burst, which use little, but the reactivity 'same to shoot, you have to try to understand.

Cons: I can not find, perhaps shutter noise intrusive, but I like it.

Opinion: I come from a D3, D3s then and then I persuaded by the reviews read to take a D800E then flanked by a D750. Annoyed by numerous misfires focus of the D800E, and dissatisfied with the plasticky body and controls the consumer while valid d750, I was struggling to pass on d810 or D4 used by about 3,500 euros (the D4S told me not worth the difference in spending ) rnHo found a good used with 25,000 shots, a little frightened by the abandonment of 36Mpixel. I must say that after having carefully set produces files amazing, detail, governing magnification equal to those of the D750, which at this point I also sold. Clear evidence that the number of pixels has a loooong relative importance, and that others are the factors that can help make a photo of a beautiful SPECTACULAR. Before long I had shots that I had never realized before, due to the convenient controls and the perfect focus, in portraits and 'now more eye closer. The D4 did not miss a beat of focus, and and 'lightning. Do not use other than this now, despitethe mole. With the battery last guy then gets to make 3,000 shots on a charge, crazy. It might be useful to make a D810 enlargements immense, but not 'my case, in case the appearance ... D5x !!!

Pros: Balancing intuitive ergonomics of the camera as usual nikon speed range iso

Cons: A few too many hot pixels in long exposures, d800 better at this.

Opinion: Coming from a D3 and having had other pro machines I have to say that a great leap forward has not been done but we say that it is more than ever improved the weapon still great beautiful and functional that I like nikon, it disturbs me a little the fact of the hot pixels with long exposures could do better seeing d800 and the interval timer in the car remains the same and impractical but for the rest of the files that returns are good, the autofocus is surgical targets and also with D running and where God convenient choice of illumination of the keys really useful a little more thirsty for battery also improved the vertical grip.

Pros: It 'sa professional .... there is not much to say!

Cons: I would say the weight, but overall does not have great differences with d800/grip....e the substance is very different! Also, the weight is better distributed, so on balance "weighs" less!

Opinion: I must admit that after the first shots I was a little 'disappointed by definition not great .... however, and only after the latest firmware update released a few days ago, its resolution does not make me not regret my former D800 .. .. Furthermore, the dynamic is higher and the noise much more limited than in any other macchiana yet proven by me! Finally the MAF, which besides being a real lightning, is a precision shocking: recommended! Finally, the shot , although more "noisy" a MarkIII and MUCH more "musical" than a D800 ... maybe kevlar has a role in this too? Greetings to all!

Pros: Sturdy, design, feeling of grip, features, Live View great, really nice engraving, infinitely customizable, and then well ... sound reasonable, and excellent burst.

Cons: Disturbing the possibility of not being able to turn off the preview display in Live View mode, some hot pixels too much exposure in a few seconds at high ISO, my has the problem of the AF module.

Opinion: It 's my first car top of the range. The feeling nell'impugnarla was immediate: comfortable for your hands and sturdy without compromise. It 'so nice to hold in your hand that you forget the weight. Each button is in the right place and change parameters is fast and allows you to not distract from the scene. Engraving incredibly detailed, clean, states: preparing prints also 1m long edge are obtained extraordinary results for a 16 mpix. The sound does not exist in the case of rapid shooting with light-medium low even at 6400 ISO. Take to the pitch dark with times of several seconds generates low noise with some hot pixels too, but easily removable. The live view is amazing so much so that, once imparatolo to good use, I can focus on the stars on moonless nights safely with optical 2.8 (when I was alone with the 5D Mk IIriuscivo 24 1.4 because the interpolation was too annoying). Also unlike that of D800 is incredibly reactive. It would be convenient grid some more for the live view forshots of precision. Rather annoying not being able to disable the 'preview display which means that every time you choose the aperture the machine physically close the lens: this must open a TA, focus and close all the holy times. It does naturally. The blast, needless to say is very good as well as the ability to customize anything. My unit has problems of AF, center point that is a little 'front focus with all my lenses and points left completely wrong Maf. I have a short meeting with the service for recalibration of the sensor phase detection. Finally, the design with the pentaprism crushed makes it more personally agreeable D3.
