This is a beautifully responsive camera that produces superb images. Nikon's autofocus and autoexposure systems have always been the best and here they are even better. The lenses supplied matched the quality of the camera, focusing quickly and accurately
Auto focus is a tad slow in live view mode. It is surprising that Nikon can't bring the contrast detection system up to the lightning speed of compact system cameras

Abstract: See I told you I'm not just a Canon fanboy! Even though I've used Canon for most of my life and normally avoid talking to Nikon users (kidding), I'm very impressed with what Nikon have produced with their newest full-frame camera, the Nikon D800 .Nikoncom...
Abstract: In our review of the Nikon D800 , we said that "it would be no exaggeration to call the Nikon D800 a quantum leap forward." The 36MP DSLR camera delivered high resolution images full of detail, easily surpassing any other DSLR today in terms of richness a...
Moiré patterns visible in some videos, Slower 4 fps shooting speed, Large image files
As cameras go, it would be no exaggeration to call the Nikon D800 a quantum leap forward. 36MP on a full-frame sensor is a bold move. So many things could have gone wrong pushing the envelope like this, but Nikon has managed to execute it with aplomb.Ergo...
