So far I have been able to gain experience with many DSLR (Canon 350D, 40D, 5D Mark II, 7D, Nikon D300, D300s, D700 and D7000). It has, however, been found that the cameras with a large sensor precisely but the best are (I know, nothing new!), So I switched back to FX. In addition to the Nikon D600, I actually had the Canon 6D envisaged, but for me because of the viewfinder (only 97% compared to 100% the Nikon), and the lack of 2. Memory card slot is no longer out of the question (WLAN and GPS I do not need ). Therefore, the choice quickly fell on the Nikon D600.
And this has convinced me. I'll spare me a list of features, this can be found on the manufacturer's website. I had the D600 last week in a bird park with bird of prey show in action and could the potential full advantage of (light, shadows, static and fast moving subjects). Inter alia,
Plus points:
· Large sensor in a relatively compact body, to keep a good grip and nice, very well made
· Pressure points of the control knobs and shutter sound very pleasant
· Large and bright 100% viewfinder, motives very well assessed
· Large 3.2-inch monitor with brilliant color reproduction of the first evaluation of the photos
· Autofocus quickly and accurately (with Nikkor 24-120mm VR 4)
· DX mode via Fn button quickly switched (set on menu)
· 2 x SD card to duplicate backup data
· Excellent image quality enlargements problem in the highest quality, very good performance, even at high ISO values
· Built-in Speedlight for emergencies (still is an external flash unit to be preferred)
· Good battery performance (1200 Images)
Bad points:
· Actually, the EIA of 2150 euros, but the price is already fallen below 2,000 euros
· Otherwise, I find it in my demands for a DSLR of anything!
The video function I need as good as not, I use a DSLR almost exclusively for photography. Therefore, I have this not taken into account in the review!
All in all, the Nikon D600 is a sophisticated camera that has mastered the balancing act between a professional camera in the consumer-housing "in my eyes perfectly. I am looking forward to the reviews, whether these my experiences confirm with the D600. Also be interesting to on the Canon 6D, in my case, but is quickly dropped in favor of the Nikon D600 the decision.
