The D750 has arrived.

[I @ M]

Just received an email telling me all about the D750. (https://mynikonlife.com.au/gear/digital-slr-cameras/d750/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=September+2014+WWA+Non-NSW&utm_content=September+2014+WWA+Non-NSW+CID_0e5663c76e7470638dc5a1d32f55a7fe&utm_source=Monthly%20EDM&utm_term=I%20AM%20CREATIVE%20FREEDOM)

[flashc]

Is it the replacement for the D300 or the D610...

Or will it sit at a level between the D610 and the D810

[ROA44]

Apparently somewhere between the 610 & 810. I had been thinking about the 610.

[Sar NOP]

Nikon should have called it D620 instead...

[I @ M]

Yes --- not quite sure where this body is aimed exactly ----

[cupic]

This is a let down...thinking that this could be a successor to the D700 but looking at it well.
To me its missing a few things that i like about the D700,
One is the curtain to close at view finder the AF-ON is gone ( I know that this is reconfigurable) to me its the D7200 in FX terms
Price wise in Aus its very good close to our colonial cousins. 24mp is a sweet spot who know it might grow on me WiFi built in good.......

Any one with thoughts

[Sifor]

Nikon can't please everyone, but this should hopefully go to partly satisfy those who want a lower MP FX camera..

[simonrl]

Looks like an awesome camera to me, it will fill the gaps where the D800e falls down, such as sport shooting and better noise for long exposure. I can't wait to get mine.

[arthurking83]

For sports shooting, this camera is a bit of a fail(from Nikon .. not the actual camera).

Of course only detailed examination of it's ability in the field will reveal how good it really is, but to not allocate a dedicated AF-On button for a camera that supposes to be as much is a fail.

Like SarNop said, it's more of a D620, than a true D7xxx camera. As a successor to the D7xxx model range, it's fastest frame rate ability should have started at 7fps, 8fps would have been better.

6.5 fps is not a sufficient step up to 5fps(of the D810) to make it stand out as much as it could have. D610 does 6fps!!
I reckon that Nikon have cheaped out on the buffer capability on this camera!
Expeed 4 appears to have the bandwidth to process more than 6.5 24Mp frames per second, but if Nikon had increased this speed, the buffer would have filled 'too quickly'.

Also .. 1/4000s shutter speed limit is not the type of limitation you expect in a serious sports/action type camera!
Even the poor little D70's had 1/8000s shutter capability ... admittedly only a pseudo 1/8000s shutter speed ... but 1/8000s all the same.

The new 20mm f/1.8 lens is a better idea me thinks!
And considering Nikon's recent realisation that more modern lenses are what a lot of consumers are looking for, I'd have thought that instead of a D750 priced out of the range of most consumers .. a D500 type camera, with Fx sensor, and slightly lower specs than the D610, but priced between $1K and $1.5K would have increased their overall sales(both cameras and Fx lenses!!)

While it's always nice to see new stuff being made .. I think this one looks to be more of a disappointment as it stands.

[ROA44]

What's the price going to be though, that's what might stop me and is it going to be worth the extra compared to the D610 or will that now drop in price.

[cupic]

Price is favourable about the $2.5K is good ....... but still be waiting

[swifty]

Yea, I'm confused.
Great camera I'm sure but not what I expected with the naming.

So where's the D750 made? If Thailand, I'm still sticking with my theory that a secretive project is brewing in Sendai.

Yeah! .. most likely a couple more. This may be more of a decoy to distract unwanted rumour mongering types away from the next couple of high end cameras soon to be released.

[MissionMan]

I fall into the disappointed category. Was hoping for a D700 replacement but it looks like the D810 it is.

I usually get a bit excited about new releases from my current brand manufacturer but I must admit to being a bit "ho hum' about this one.

The 20mm f1.8 looks like much more exciting news.

[richardb]

I will check it out at the Photokina in Cologne , this week,
Personally, I think it is not a follow up of the D700, with that funny flip up display.

[ROA44]

Well one retailer is priced at $2599 shipping date late September.

[MattNQ]

I am disappointed that the D700 owners are disappointed - I was hoping to see a pile of low shutter count D700's flood ebay at bargain prices:D

You can already pick them up at under $1000. Not sure how much lower they would go.

[ROA44]

Even the D7100's are advertised below $1000.

yeah good point . I have even seen them with grips included around that price.


D750 is a funny camera. Thom Hogan referred to it a "fixed D600/610" with some D810 bits in it.
One wonders of the D6xx line will exit gracefully to stage left.

I am surprised they limited the D750 to 1/4000 shutter given the shutter/mirror mechanism is reportedly the same as the D810.

[fillum]

Every day there are about a bazillion new products launched onto the market, almost all of which are either not aimed at me, or fail to meet my needs. I don't let myself be disappointed by that...:)

ECS (http://www.cameras.net.au)(auth reseller) have listed the D750 at $2350. Impressive if correct (~$200 cheaper than US after exch rate).

Looks a great set of specs for a general purpose camera. If Nikon can get these out the door 'clean' they should sell absolute shiploads...



Cheers.

[MissionMan]

Agree. I don't think anyone is saying its a bad camera, just not a D700 replacement

[cupic]

The more i see the D750 the more it looks to me like a D7100 FX model
Looks like Xmas will be a D810

[richardb]

Check out the sec hand shops in Tokio, more than occasionally they selling one D700.
The 10.000 clicks ones already 100.000 yen.

Looks perfect to me. I've already picked up a D750 to go with my D7100. It gives me a perfect DX/FX combo - almost identical bodies and controls, same accessories, similar AF systems.

[fillum]

I noticed this morning that JB Hifi have them listed at $2209 (till 15/10 I think)...

[cupic]

$2100 at a Victorian branch of JB HIfI at the same sale that ended today

[vharperv]

just one question would my lenses used with my d7000 work with the full frame FX camera.

Vera, your DX lenses will work on the D750 with limitations. The D750 has a menu option to reduce the image circle cast on to the sensor to be the same as a DX camera. If you use DX lenses on the D750 without selecting the DX mode in the menu you might have a lot to a little vignetting occurring in the final images due to the reduced coverage area of the DX lenses.
Some DX lenses will give you rather poor results when used with the camera in FX mode and some DX lenses, the 35mm F/1.8 for example, will provide an almost vignette free image.

I agree, I would love to get my hands on the 200mm F1.8

[wedgtail]

I think i will wait and see on this one give it 6 months before i jump in, having bought a D600 in the early release period .
