Nikon D610 DSLR Camera with 50mm f/1.8G Lens and Free Accessory Kit

This is the first real camera I have ever bought. I bought this camera primarily for astrophotography and landscape photography and have not been disappointed with its performance! I could not believe the picture quality when I was doing astrophotography. I was even able to have one of my astrophotography photographs blown up to 3 feet X 5 feet to hang on one of my walls in my house. I am still amazed at the detail after having it blown up. My friends can't get over the fact that I took that picture! It took a little bit of time to learn all of the functions on it, but in three months time I pretty much had all of the functions down. I am still learning how to use it and it keeps getting better and better all the time. I have had this camera for 4 years and thought about upgrading to a D850, but I could not justify the price for it. If I were shooting professionally I would buy one, but since I am not there is no reason for me to upgrade. Instead I decided to buy some polarized filters for my lenses instead and what a difference that made. I can't get over the sharpness and detail I now get with my lenses during daylight hours. I also like the capability of doing time lapse shooting, which I have played with and plan on doing more in the future. This camera really has it all! Whenever I am on a road trip with my friends, they are always looking forward to the pictures I take. They cannot get over the quality of the pictures I take with the camera. This is the best camera I have ever owned. I thought I was having problems with the oil spots everybody has written about, but I found out it was just dust on the sensor.

I've been shooting with the 610 since my 600 was replaced because of the sensor spotting issue (yes, it became noticeable on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to southern Utah with cloudless blue skies....). I've been very happy with this camera and don't hesitate to recommend it. I've gotten some stunning photos over the years and while I keep thinking of reasons to upgrade, I've yet to make the plunge into the next tier of Nikon products. Maybe when the 880 comes out? If you're on a budget and have other Nikon gear, this is a good camera to start with.

My wife and I were looking to upgrade from a crop sensor. We settled on a used D610. Adorama answered all our questions prior to purchasing it and shipped it quickly. The grip on the D610 feels great and the camera has a nice weight. Coming from a crop sensor, the difference is very noticeable. The photos are sharp and rich in color. It has been a joy shooting with it and I recommend the D610 as an excellent choice for starting out with full frame camera bodies.

As a long term semi-pro, I cut my teeth on Nikon and Nikkor products. I never thought I would transition away from my 35mm F5. But as digital cameras took their place in the pecking order I started using a D200 and then a D300 exclusively. With a Nikkor 18-200mm VR lens, I was making extraordinary photos. Time to step into a new world of photography and the D610 felt right. Intuitive controls, many fail safe features and with a 24-120mm VR N lens, I couldn't be more happy with my landscape and even small-subject work. A 70-300mm lens fills out the balance of my shooting but this camera is the highlight of my photo taking experience. The photos are rich and detailed and never more sharp and clear as I have always demanded from my Nikon products. The excellent videos are a terrific bonus!

I am extremely happy with this Nikon D610 bundle. I have been shooting for years with an older Nikon D7000 body, and I was looking to upgrade to a full frame camera to replace it. I had been looking at used D610 camera bodies, but then I stumbled on this bundle. The value of this bundle can't be beat. Coming from a DX camera body, I was in need of a FX series lens, and the battery grip and wireless adapter were items I would have looked to purchase eventually. The price of this bundle makes this package an awesome value. The D610 has been excellent. I immediately noticed a huge improvement in the overall image quality. Even in 2020, this camera produces images that rival the newest cameras on the market. The color rendering and detail captured are excellent. The camera produces better images in low light than my older DX camera, and the grain in the higher ISO settings is much improved. As a full package, this bundle can't be beat.

I was surprised how well packed it was and all the accessories it came with, including Nikon bag. The camera shoots great pictures, and I’m so happy I could add an affordable extended warranty! Great customer service too btw! I was pleasantly surprised how quick & accurate they were on a Sunday! Five Stars!

Love the camera so far! Took some shots at a snowmobile race and they turned out fabulous. The autofocus is fast enough to track the snowmobiles at 90 mph! Could not beat the price Adorama had on this full frame camera, and the freebies are great!

First! HOORAY! It came with a PRINTED manual!!!! This is very important for an elderly user who predominately takes outdoor pictures. I was able to make my standardized settings relatively easy: ASA/SP/bracketing. As I get accustomed to the unit, I will try to employ TIFF and full-frame settings, However, it does not replace my preferred "mini" camera: Canon A-140.

I am so pleased with this purchase. I researched it for weeks and Adorama was absolutely the best option. Other stores had gray Market options that we're only a few hundred dollars cheaper. Buying the real thing and knowing that you've got a great product is so satisfying. I returned to Adorama and purchased the 24 to 70 Nikon lens as well as the 28 to 300. I'm using them for product photography that I already have lighting and boxes for so it is a business expense oh, but it is a joy to play with them knowing they are the best out there in my price bracket.

The brand new Nikon D 610 is still a good camera and I just had to get it as I already still have an old Nikkor from the film days. It's a camera that gives excellent image quality which is why I buy a camera. Recommended.

I have always been a crop sensor user ever since moving from film to digital. I previously owned Nikon APS-c bodies, but one day upgraded to a D7000 and that is when I realized NIKON was losing its grip on Quality Control, the D7000 had a back focus issue. In short Nikon refused to fixed the camera, even though Nikon knew it was a factory defect. So I sent my camera to a repair shop and they did what Nikon would not do for only $250, then I sold the camera and went with other brands (Pentax, Sony, Panasonic, Olympus, and they all delivered greatness). Now after seeing the D-610 on sale bundled with lots of goodies at an irresistible price, I said, it is my time to enter the Full Frame world (BTW FF is overrated). To my disappointment when setting the camera to live view mode for video shooting, that is when the mirror locked up and never unlocked again yielding the camera useless. I could not believe what was happening, fortunately it was within 40 minutes of having the camera delivered to my doorsteps, after talking to ADORAMA they offered a full refund. I have nothing bad to say about picture quality, I think NIKON delivers great color and contrast, but it is pointless if the cameras are failing in built quality. So if NIKON works great for you, good, as for me it did not. Please put your camera through some usage and check it well before the return period ends, or get a third party warranty in case NIKON does not do its job.

I had researched many many different cameras and decided that as an advanced hobbyist I was ready for full frame. I looked into mirrorless and then into dslr's...the weight of dslr's doesn't bother me, so I was more than happy with a dslr. On cyber Monday, Adorama was hosting some amazing deals and I noticed a great deal on this camera package, with a grip, and a 50mm lens- virtually for free, given what the Nikon d610 was worth. I pulled the trigger, it came in quickly- thanks Adorama! I have used this camera/ lens combo for a couple of weeks now, and I am very impressed. Glad I made the move to Nikon and to full frame. This camera is still very good, very capable, and with a deal like this, you can't go wrong.

Bargain at this price. Autofocus is not as fast as D750. Other then that same as D750.

This is an excellent full-frame DSLR kit for any beginner. At normal pricing it may no longer offer a good value proposition compared to its competition but at Adorama's current sale price, which is essentially half-off, this D610 kit is a no brainer. Refurbished D610 bodies without any lenses or accessories cost hundreds more than this kit does. Functionality-wise, it has enough capabilities and flexibility that I'm unlikely to ever outgrow it or fully master it.

Great camera, great lens, great bundle. Could not be happier with this purchase. I shoot concerts and this gave great performance in low light

The least expensive FF Nikon. This camera is more than adequate for 98% of consumers. The build quality is great and I expect this to last many years. Ergonomics on this camera with the added grip are great. The price for the kit is fabulous.

OMG this is an unheard deal. I paid $ for my (barely used) D610 body and have constantly been impressed by the performance. The only camera above it I might consider, if I had to replace it today, would be a D810 or D850. Between a D750 and the D610, I would take the D610 all day long, every day. Don't get me wrong, the D750 is awesome, but the D610 feels great in the hand and performs incredibly. I also don't need the tilting screen of the D750. I think the D610 may be Nikon's most underrated camera, but Nikon knows it is a winner, since they typically keep it priced higher than the D750. If you are considering full frame Nikon, and are not inclined to invest in the D810, D850 do yourself a favor and look into the D610. Adorama has become my goto dealer for repeated excellent service, so it's hard to see how this deal could be any better, especially bundled with the 50mm 1.8G and battery drive, at this price. If I could justify it, I would buy this as a second kit. I don't work for and am not affiliated with Nikon or Adorama, but I see so many people constantly looking for the next new camera body release. This is an AWESOME, reliable body. Get it and buy good glass if you want great pictures.
