FEATURED REVIEWS
Don't mind the negitive reviews
It's time to clear up some questions and concerns brought up by previous reviews. Make no mistake, the Nikon D610 is a professional level camera that can be picked up by hobbyists, working professionals and beginners alike. At the time of writing this review (12/29/2014) the D610 has a 4 star rating which is a disappointment. This camera deserves 5 stars but due to angry D600 users and people misunderstanding what a camera body's limits and capabilities are, the D610 suffers. Does the camera...

Great Camera
Was quite surprised with it's performance. Works very well in low light, creating crisp sharp images. The body is light weight and well balanced. With controls that you can still use in AUTO mode, or program your own settings. I have used the D800, and in comparing them. I have discovered unless you are a professional photographer and need the very best. The D610 will suit all of your needs, and more. I truly enjoy working with it.
The Nikon D610 is a budget-priced FX-Mount full-frame sensor Nikon DSLR camera with a 24.3MP CMOS sensor and high image quality. Boasting wide dynamic range, smooth colors and tonal gradations with low noise, the D610 is the most affordable Nikon full-frame camera on the market. The sensor works with an Expeed 3 image processor for a top ISO of 25,600, a fast 6fps continuous shoot rate, and a quiet shooting mode. The camera also captures full 1080p HD video. A sophisticated 39-point autofocus array system provides reliable AF in low light.
What you should know about the Nikon D610:
• FX-Format Sensor: The D610's 24.3MP 35mm FX-format CMOS sensor works together with the Expeed 3 image processor for detailed images with a high dynamic range and color accuracy. Native low-light sensitivity tops out at ISO 6400 and can be expandable to 25,600. Performance is best in class, with a 6fps burst rate a full resolution. You can also shoot up to 3fps sequences without raising and lowering the reflex mirror. Users can switch from FX to DX format mode to record APS-sized images. This allows users to use Nikon's DX-specific lenses. RAW files can be recorded as lossless compressed or compressed at 12 or 14-bits.
• Speedy autofocus: The Multi-Cam 4800 AF sensor has 39 AF points in light down to -1 EV. Intelligent Scene recognition identifies subjects and adjusts focus tracking and panning accordingly. The number of focus points can be changed manually, and the seven central AF point are compatible with lenses f/8 or faster. Single-point AF, Dynamic Area AF, 3-D Tracking and Auto Area AF modes are available.
• Mighty metering: Nikon's Scene Recognition System uses 2016-pixel RBG sensor to evaluate each scene and check it against an onboard database of reference images to aid in optimizing exposure.
• Fantastic flash: The Nikon D610 has a pop-up flash, which is great for fill light, but the i-TTL flash exposure system lets you control multiple and on-camera flashes wirelessly using compatible Nikon Speedlight flashes.
• HD Video: Aspiring moviemakers can record up to 1920x1080p movies in 30, 25 and 24fps as well as in 720p resolution, using MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format. Manual focus and exposure is possible while recording videos, and an external mic jack is built in.
• More cool features: Built-in HDR extends the dynamic range by combining two images. Time-lapse, RAW, auto ISO sensitiviity, intelligent noise reduction are also possible."
Nikon D610 Features
- FX format makes a difference: The D610's FX-format CMOS image sensor will transport your photography to new heights. Boasting a larger pixel than you'll get in other formats with the same pixel count, it's able to capture more light. This technical advantage has a huge impact on dynamic and image quality at high ISOs.
- 4 key assets: Vital elements for a formidable machine - FX-format sensor, EXPEED 3, Picture Control and NIKKOR
- NIKKOR: NIKKOR lenses realize the sensor's full potential, achieving exquisite sharpness with minimized aberration, while rendering spectacular bokeh for a three dimensional look that's true-to-life.
- EXPEED 3: The D610 takes full advantage of Nikon's EXPEED 3, the same image-processing engine found in the D4 and D800 series, meaning it can swiftly manage the large data files that an FX-format sensor produces.
- Picture Control technology: Picture Control technology makes it simple to tailor the look and feel of your stills and videos by fine-tuning their parameters using preset options. And with enhanced auto white balance accuracy for common shooting scenarios, the D610 reproduces colors naturally and precisely.
- 6-fps continuous shooting: It's easier than ever to nail key moments with the D610. The camera boasts even faster continuous shooting than its predecessor, at up to approx. 6 fps in FX and DX formats - amazing when you consider that the former is recording 24.3 megapixels with each shot.
- Qc shutter-release mode for quiet operation [NEW]: The D610's new Qc (quiet continuous) shutter-release mode reduces mirror noise while still offering up to 3 fps, for maximum discretion in situations such as ceremonies and school plays, or when taking pictures of wildlife and insects.
- Approx. 100% frame coverage: The bright, clear glass prism of the D610's optical viewfinder covers approx. 100% of the image area, an invaluable asset for accurate framing. The approx. 0.7x magnification - the same as the D4 and D800/D800 - means it's easy to see all the visual elements in the viewfinder.
- 39 focus points and f/8 compatibility: The D610's AF system gives you absolute confidence when capturing moving subjects by using 39 strategically placed focus points, with nine powerful cross-type sensors in the center to maintain accuracy even when light and contrast are low.
- Double SD card slots: The D610's double SD card slots provide multiple options for recording and storing large files: you can write RAW and JPEG data to separate cards, copy from one card to another, or select a slot according to the remaining capacity during video shooting.
- Dependable body and shutter: The D610's rugged body utilizes a durable magnesium alloy for the top and rear frames, and its weather-sealing gives it the same dust and moisture proof reliability as the D800 series.
- Built-in flash to trigger remote Speedlights: The D610's built-in flash makes Advanced Wireless Lighting with Nikon Speedlights even easier and more portable. Turn the flash to commander mode and you can wirelessly trigger your remote Speedlights (SB-700 or SB-910) with ease.
- Full HD D-Movie and time-lapse feature: The D610 can record 1080p Full HD video at 30p in H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, with a choice of both FX- and DX-based movie formats, plus comprehensive audio control including a dedicated stereo headphone connector.
