The quantum leap!

6 years ago I had for the first time a D300 in my hand and was immediately impressed by the feel.
However, I was of the body but a bit too big. At that time was just announced ... dieD90 better sensor, video, right housing size, so ordered and been blind for 6 years satisfied, apart from hard plastic case ...
When the D7000 came out I was again impressed by the specifications ... but from the soft-PE (?) - Leathering so disappointed that I pressed the stunned Nikon representative in his hand again.

Then the D600 came with finally FX in a slim case ... but again with the same cheap leather trim ...
Last year, then the DF ... slim housing, FX, great look and feel, but no video, for retro, but I did not really ...
Aside from the price my service was a bit too fiddly ... am not Kompositeur, wander rarely lonely in the wax cotton jacket by Highands and do not have time, taking a picture to celebrate, but hunting rather the kids or the birds at Sonntagsspaziergang afterwards.

Then came "you", D750, full frame, slim enclosure, Wi-Fi, folding screen, AF and exposure module on par with D800 and D4 and ...: Thank Nikon ... finally ... the pro-leathering, I already knew from the D300, which is the more grip, the longer you hold the camera in hand, so they simply no longer want to put it down.

So once again a blind order.
The paper did not disappoint, Auto AF with face recognition is a dream, form factor and feel well.
Those coming from the consumer enclosures, has no major problems with the service, although since the D90 some menu items have been added.
That professionals coming from the D700 and a successor expected in a direct line (this is not already the D800?), I can understand. The fact that the camera should, despite the "7" in the name may never be.
But honestly, can moor at the only on the housing form and the number and arrangement of the controls?

What really knocks me on the camera are light sensitivity and low noise!
Where at the end was at ISO640 D90 and D300 in the terrain, the D750 is just beginning to be fun!
This in conjunction with the light- sensitive AF and Nikon 50mm f1.4 my AF-D, the more unused lay far in the camera bag, the above-mentioned quantum leap for me, personally.

A bit of shade is of course. For example, the significantly longer access time to the memory card, even when compared to D90
(2 x 32GB SanDisk Extreme Pro 95MB / s should not be the reason).
Or the still somewhat phlegmatic AF in Live View ... for now but in the functional folding screen!
Wi-Fi works even if for Windows Phone once again there is no App ... I look forward to the appropriate version of QDSL dashboard.

Conclusion:
For me, with great certainty the camera that will continue to guide the next 6 years, hopefully as easily as the D90.
