Top Rated Gear: Nikon D810 Digital SLR Body Only Camera, - Refurbished by Nikon U.S.A. Color: Black, Connectivity: Clean HDMI Out, Edition: Standard, Features: Mic Input, Format: Full Frame Camera, Frames Per Second: 5.0, Lens Included: Without Lens

The Nikon D810 Digital SLR Body Only Camera takes its place as the high resolution option in the Nikon DSLR lineup. It features a 36.3MP FX-format CMOS sensor without an Optical Low Pass Filter for particularly sharp and detailed still imaging. With the addition of the EXPEED 4 Image Processor, performance speed is increased compared to the EXPEED 3 and noise is effectively reduced throughout the ISO range. Continuous shooting speed in FX format is 5 fps and in DX format hits a maximum of 7 fps. In addition, the full HD video capabilities of the D810 have been upgraded to include 1080p capture at 24, 30 and 60 fps. Also, the improved efficiency of the processor enables up to 1200 shots on one battery charge and 40 minutes of video recording. Low light performance has been upgraded thanks to a wide native ISO sensitivity range that runs from 64 to 12,800 and can be expanded from 32 to 51,200. The advanced Multi-CAM 3500FX autofocus sensor offers 51 AF points with 15 cross-type sensors and Group Area AF enables five AF sensors to be used as one group. This is useful when shooting subjects that cannot be tracked easily by one AF point due to lighting conditions. As a camera optimized for video capture, the D810 features recording in both FX and DX formats including simultaneous recording to memory cards and an external recorder as well as recording 60p output to an external recorder. The ISO range for video has also been expanded to run from ISO 64 to 12,800 and expand to 51,200. Automatic ISO adjustment in manual mode enables smooth exposure transitions. A built-in stereo microphone is supported as are jacks for an external mic and headphones. A selectable audio frequency range provides exacting control over sound recording. A 3.2" LCD with 1,229K-dot resolution provides playback viewing and live view and improved coatings on the optical viewfinder components provide brighter images and more accurate colors. Live View function now includes split screen display zoom for stills and zebra highlighting display in video mode. Full aperture metering during live view for still shooting is supported. Interval and time-lapse shooting feature exposure smoothing and the maximum number of images per sequence is now 9,999. Improved Picture Control settings now offer Flat Picture Control to enable maximum dynamic range and color adjustments in post-production. The D810 utilizes dual media slots for both Compact Flash and SD cards and it provides a built-in flash with i-TTL metering as well as a hot shoe mount. A larger grip enables comfortable control for extended shooting and a secondary "i" button has been added to back panel for faster access to important settings.  36.3MP FX-Format CMOS Sensor without an Optical Low Pass Filter Nikon's highest resolution sensor is housed in the D810 and by omitting the Optical Low Pass Filter, the sensor provides superior sharpness and detail. The sensor boasts fast channel readout, wide dynamic range, rich tones and improved imaging at high sensitivities.  EXPEED 4 Image Processor The EXPEED 4 processor provides 30% faster performance over the EXPEED 3 as well improved low noise imaging throughout the ISO range. Support for 1080p video capture at 60 fps is featured and the processor's increased efficiency enables up to 1200 still shots and 40 minutes of video recording per charge.  Native ISO Range of 64 to 12,800 The improved ISO range compared to the D800 enables more effective low light imaging and the ISO can be expanded from 32 to 51,200.  Advanced Multi-CAM 3500FX Auto Focus Sensor Versatile AF Modes of 9, 21 and 51 points and 3D tracking enable fast, precise auto focus control. AF sensitivity down to -2 EV is effective in low light and 15 cross-type sensors are compatible with AF NIKKOR lenses with open aperture of f/5.6 or faster. Eleven central focus points work with an open aperture of f/8. Improvements include upgraded 'lock-on', expanded 'store by orientation,' and more options for AF mode restrictions.  Group Area AF Group Area AF enhances subject detection and tracking in challenging lighting conditions or when shooting comparatively small subjects against a high-contrast background by grouping and monitoring 5 individual AF points. The 5-point AF area can be shifted across the 51-point array as your composition changes.  RAW Size S Accelerate your workflow with Nikon's RAW Size S file format which delivers 12-bit uncompressed Nikon NEF files that enable faster image transfer and smoother post-production.  Continuous Shooting In FX mode, the D810 can shoot up to 5 fps and in DX mode it can capture up to 7 fps when utilizing the MB-D12 battery grip with AA batteries.  Reduced Vibration for Sharper Imaging The D810's shutter/mirror box architecture and electronic front-curtain feature improve overall image clarity. The shutter/mirror mechanism reduces image shake for a steady viewfinder image with minimal blackout during high-speed shooting. When activated, the electronic front-curtain shutter reduces the risk of blur in even subtle details by minimizing internal vibrations during exposure.  Quiet Continuous Mode A redesigned Sequencer/Balancer Mechanism enables Quiet Continuous Mode for near silent sequential shooting.  Picture Control In addition to standard, neutral, vivid, monochrome, portrait and landscape, image control options have been expanded to include Flat Picture Control which is geared for shooting in RAW modes and for video capture when adjustments will be made in post-production. Also, a clarity option has been added to all Picture Control settings and better control over Picture Control is enabled by fine 0.25 steps.  Full HD 1080p Video Capture in 60/30/24 fps Video recording is supported in both FX and DX formats with an ISO range from 64 to 12,800 and expandable to 51, 200. Simultaneous recording to memory cards and to an external recorder is now supported. Auto ISO adjustment is possible in manual mode for smooth exposure transitions. Nikon's 3D noise reduction reduces random noise, distortion and flicker when filming at high sensitivities. Zebra mode on the camera monitor shows you exactly where highlights are. A built-in stereo microphone as well as jacks for external microphone and headphones are provided. You can fine-tune audio levels in isolation both before and during recording and select the sound range (wide/voice).  3.2" LCD Monitor with 1,229k-dot Resolution A high resolution LCD provides detailed playback viewing and live view capture with color balance and brightness control. A split screen display zoom for still shooting lets you compare two enlarged points in the image for sharpness and exposure.  Optical Viewfinder Improved coatings on the optical components render brighter and more accurate color and the Organic EL information display makes it easier to make adjustments under bright/dim conditions.  Interval Timer/Time-Lapse Shooting Exposure smoothing is supported in time-lapse and interval shooting modes and the number of recordable images has been increased to 9,999.  Flash Both a built-in flash and hot shoe mount are supported with i-TTL metering, as is a flash sync terminal. The built-in flash offers commander mode for wireless control of up to two groups of off-camera flash units.  CF and SD Card Slots Two card slots are supported for versatile image storage and smoother workflow. One CF card slot for high-speed UDMA 7 cards and one SD card slot for high-speed, high-capacity SDXC and UHS-I cards allow you to use one card as back-up or place still images on one card and video on the other or RAW on one and JPEG on the other.  Form Factor A deeper hand grip improves handling and a secondary "i" button has been added for easier access to important settings. A durable magnesium alloy body with extensive weather and dust sealing ensure the D810 is moisture- and dust-resistant.

Great camera. I am an amateur, and always wanted to have a full frame camera. Got it used and even obsolete (by its release date), I believe I won't need anything better than this camera many many years to come.

Great camera, great deal.

I recently placed my first Adoroma order for a "heavy used" Nikon D810. It took 3 days to arrive to Tennessee from NY via UPS. The camera was well packaged and arrived intact. When I finally unwrapped, I was very surprised! The camera was in pristine condition. There was only some ever so slight brassing around bottom of base, but zero dents or scratches. The rear LCD, and top LCD screens were bright, clear and scratch free. The function buttons and switches were in very good condition. And best of all the shutter count was below the manufacture's life limit. The camera shoots and works great. Needless to say, I am very pleased with this purchase. It's hard to believe Adoroma can offer such a great pro-level camera at this price point.  And the Nikon D810 definately delivers pro quailty, better built-in technology, and beautiful pictures. I highly recommend purchasing from Adoroma, and will be shopping with them in the near future. Great job Adoroma. You just got a happy new customer. A+

Better than expected! A+

For me and the photos I enjoy making, this is as close to my dream camera as I am likely to get any time soon. I used a Pro camera as a semi-pro shooter during the film era - Nikon F5. Then, my dream maker. But since I can't afford the Z9 my best choice in memory-making is the D810. It is the best Nikon that still affords the benefit of the onboard flash! For landscape photos, its 36.3 megapixels render incredible photographs! For close-up shots, the fill flash is ideal and I have no need of an extra speedlight. Moving up from a wonderful and still well-used D610, the D810 is easy to master and intuitive to use fully. Easily, my favorite Nikon of all!

My 'dream camera'? Pretty darn close!

D810 is arguably the best buy you can find in today's market at around $700 range. It provides the best image quality and handling, great build quality and tons of nikon dslr lenses. Highly recommended if you are a beginner trying to get into photography.

Best camera you can buy at this price range

Purchased the Nikon D810 camera. This camera is not for folks that need all the future?s that this camera offers. This camera is pure professional equipment. And first class in my opinion.

Excellent product.

I have the D810 for 4 years and just loved the amount of pixels it has, I used it at a wedding & got the most amazing no flash allowed photos of the bride & groom than I ever thought possible. I also got great results shooting landscapes, my grandchildren and all their various sporting events & recitals (which required no flash) plus birds also with very good results. I loved this camera so much for its portraits that my daughter  law is now using it to take great quality photos of her 3 beautiful daughters which I relish each great shot taken!!
I used it for a while as back up to my D850, but after being the go to camera for 3 years & seeing the quality of the iPhone pics I decided that she needed a better camera & since my son & family live 650 miles away, this was the way to go besides my son is an IT guy and he'll soon love the D810 too!!

Excellent Camera for any occasion

My D810 is due for a review ~ prompted by my lazy-late decision to finally register it at ‘MyNikon’ website. I’ve had it since November 2014, and have had a great time with it! ~ PS tells me I’m over 30,000 shots {<aux:ImageNumber>31400<} with the only observable symptom is me pulling up the edge of the grip covering because of rough handling. I’ve dropped it on concrete, gotten it soaked by rain in my kayak shooting birds, and carrying it around in a tumble of lenses and junk in my camera bag...

This D810 delivers fantastic results behind the latest of Nikon chipped lenses, you know that already, but I’m here to tell you it is just as happy with a 50+ year old Nikkor 500mm Reflex, a Bellows II extension with the slide adapter, and even {yipes} a C8 2000mm Schmitt-Cassegrain. I have no mercy! I have never been disappointed in this fine instrument.

Years of Superlative Service!

This is my first full frame DSLR and I am enjoying every bit of it.

Great Camera

Amazing camera! This is my first pro camera and so far I am loving it, definitely a huge change from my previous Nikon, looking forward to using it more

Amazing camera

first copy had a problem but was easily returned and replaced.  
The replacement has the same basic problem and will not format the memory card.  I have no idea why?

A great camera, looks and handles as new with the exception of the one problem.

After six years of shooting with the D5200 which was a wonderful six years, now jumping to the D810, what an incredible upgrade. I know there are other excellent cameras out there by Nikon but this is such a huge move for me. Thoroughly enjoying this awesome equipment. So much to learn so many things to discover so spending time studying reading playing experimenting. It’s going to take a few months to get comfortable with it but could not of made it better move at this time in my pro-amateur career.

Incredible camera! My move to FX

I have used Nikon cameras for over 50-years, having owned EM, FM series, F3, F4, D5300, D7100, D500, and lastly, the D810 - my first full frame DSLR. It’s great to be able to fill the viewing frame with an image and know that’s how the final image will come out. At 36.3mp, I’m able to crop tightly and loose little, if any, picture quality. All controls are easily accessible and the camera well balanced, more so with the addition of the MD-12 battery pack. The more I use it - the more I want to!

My first full frame DSLR!

Love this camera!  Nothing to complain about.  This is the 3rd refurb I have bought from Adorama, started with the D200, then went to the D700, and now D810.

Nikon Fan

I just upgraded from a D5300, which was a great entry level camera. However, now I have my dream camera - Nikon D810. There is a lot more to learn but completely worthy it. This camera is awesome and now I must step my game up.

My new Nikon D810

I use this camera as a professional, for this price and image size, the noise at 800 to 1600 is unbelievably bad for this camera. Still far behind Canon camera's for this price range. Better tracking on the D750 and very close in image clarity.

Too much noise

I have read accounts of Nikon refurbished cameras appearing fairly rough to like new....I appear to have gotten one that looks just like a new Nikon D810 out of a factory new box. So far it is performing very well. I have an older early serial number D810 and the refurbished one has a very recent serial number and the latest firmware updates. It was missing the screen protector so I called Adorama Customer Service and they got a brand new one out to me free of charge. I am very pleased with the camera and totally happy with Adorama. I'd highly recommend a Nikon D810  from Adorama as they totally stand behind anything they sell.

My "new" refurbished Nikon D810

I am a steadfast Nikon user. My first DSLR was a D5000, then a D5300 and I settled into the D5500 for quite some time. I had always wanted to go "Full-frame", but could never afford what I wanted. Just recently, my D5500 started having issues with the sensor - it came down to buying a new camera, elated to find that the prices for the "older" model D750 and D810 were well within my current reach. I'm still learning all this camera's many features, but the first ~50 pics I took with just my comparative limited experience from my D5500 were amazing!

Finally, I am OVERJOYED!!!

Purchased the D810 as a backup for my D750. Now it seems the 750 is destined to be the backup. The 810 is easy to use and operate! Perfect for landscape and gets me in the wilderness every weekend. Allows me to spend less time setting up the camera, and more time shooting in the woods. B and H gave me the opportunity to purchase a camera I thought I couldn't afford!

Smart choice!

I purchased the D810 a few years ago. Quite simply, this is one of Nikon's great all time cameras. Digital or film. Image quality is outstanding and of course, being an 800 series, handling is fantastic. Of course, the D850 has superseded it and has advances in offering more resolution, the back-lit sensor, 4K video but the D810 has a feature I really like and use a lot and that's the built-in flash. I use it quite frequently. I would miss having it although you could get one of Nikon's smaller units. Considering that new ones are still available at $1,000 off just for the body I would strongly recommend you consider a D810 if you're in the market for a full frame DSLR. You won't be disappointed.

Amazing Camera

Put my D300s on the shelf when this arrived. I am still working on the finer points but it dazzled me when I first shot a few images. Much faster, it seems, than my D300s and the menu has some interesting components(Like the folder option). I am still wandering through the manual I purchased by Darrell Young but this camera is similar in function to my D300s so I am picking up quite fast and love the outcome.

amazing camera

I bought the Nikon D810 as a refurbished item, but when it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised.  Other than the fact that the label on the box said "refurbished"  I could not tell that this camera had been used before.  I'm still learning all of the nuances of this camera, but it is a definite step up from my old D7100! The only minor drawback is that there was no user manual in the box. This was easily worked around by downloading it from the Nikon website.

Couldn't tell this was a refurbished item!

While it reminds me in many ways of my old Pentax 6 x 7 (I also shot Nikon F1 and N2000 as well as many other brands and formats) but out-performs it by a mile, and the 502-page fine-print manual seems daunting at first, I picked up the basics very quickly. I have already begun shooting event photography (something I hadn't planned on) as well as requested scenic photos after less than a month. I will soon be using it for professional real estate photography and even have a memorial shoot coming up. "Nikki" still surprises me on occasion when I turn her on, but I've mastered everything I need and want in the first two or three weeks of owning her. Even in JPEG Fine, the quality is outstanding. The included software was easy to use and will do all I need to create professional RAW photographs that will beat most of the competition.

Incredible Capabilities of the D810

Camera refurbished by Nikon was indistinguishable from a new product. It did not come in a new product box, but was carefully packaged in a white box with the Nikon logo. It came with all the same accessories as new, except: it did not have the hot shoe cover and did not have the monitor cover. Both of those items are available as replacement parts from Adorama for a moderate price. It also did not include the software disk or manual. Both of these are available as downloads from the Nikon website. 

I have a D800 and love it. The D810 is very much like the D800 but with at least a half generation newer technology. Color is excellent, resolution is excellent. It has no antialiasing filter, unlike the D800E, which really still had an AA filter that was altered to be less obvious.

I have bought several refurbished cameras and lenses (by Nikon) and have always had a good experience.

Try refurbished for a good camera at a good price.

I'm a nikon fan.  This camera is the reason why.  Great camera.

I now have 2 D810's because I can't imagine a better back-up camera. Great resolution, managable-size files, relatively low noise at high ISO, and easy to work with.

My second D810

For a longtime film (Nikon F3) fan, this was a big jump, and the feature set is at first a bit overwhelming. But the image quality in bright and low light with various apertures is unparalleled, and all my old manual-focus lenses meter perfectly. Vibration reduction on the AF zoom allows hand shooting at slow shutter speeds, and Lightroom does the rest. Despite its complexity this camera is durable, surviving bitter cold and very wet shoots as though it were a sunny day.

Powerful features for pros and serious amateurs

Am so pleased with this camera and the bundle. Thank you Adorama for price matching and for being so great to work with! Definitely recommend joining their membership!

Wonderful package!

A perfect FX body within budget

Ease of handling. Noticeable differance in photo clarity.

Outstanding camera with ease of usage.

I was debating on whether to spend the extra $$ on the D850.  I am totally satisfied with the 36mp of the D810.  I shoot mostly stills.
