D750 is superior on all fronts
La D750
D750 is way better than the D610 in all the aspects
There is no question the D750 is the choice....
I still use the D600 which is very similar to the D610. Frankly, I don't have much problems at all with focus. Of course, misfocus happens from time to time, but it's definitely usable even in not-so-well-lit churches. So, it's OK and you can do things with it. But if you can get the D750 - go for it. It is a better camera overall.
Just one problem, a lot of D750 with problems :D shutter, light leaks and so on :D
really?? never heard of any problems with this....
Thanks guys ;)based on your comments i think it worth the extra money (Y)
The D750 is streets ahead of the D610
I know this is off topic, but why are you switching?
Because i shoot video with apsc, like Canon 70D, and shoot photos with rented Canon 5D, the last wedding the person whom rented me the canon couldn't do it, so i try a d810 and i felt in love with nikon. Now i have to buy a camera only to shoot in weddings and i'm between this 2.
Have you tried either of the two cameras you're considering, do you love them as well, and what did you like about the 810 over the 5d3?
i did try the d610 once in a store, not in real work. The D810, i felt it more quick, the shadows were a lot cleaner; when i bring the shadows o exp up in LR there were practicly no noise, and the image quality was superb. The problem is i can't afford the d810 so i'm after this two.
You know, I have not had the same experience with Nikon. I've been able to recover more blown highlights with the d4s vs 5d3, but never more shadow detail. I've shot video with the 610, and the quality doesn't compare to the 5d3. all of the cameras mentioned are newer than the 5d, but the 610 and the 750 are older than the 810. It'd probably be best to rent before you buy so that you can check out the actual files from them before you make a decision.
You got a very rare and surely priceless 5d3 then! The shadow details on canons aren't pretty. Some people are just Nikon and some are canon and some really annoying ones are sony. Even when I started I got the newly released 30D and hated it but all the other fashion shooters were shooting 20D's. I quickly figured out that I was using it a lot in the colorado mountains and usually in the rain and the 30D wasn't sealed and had to go up to a 5D to get a sealed one or Nikon had a D200 and new 18-200 that was sealed,,, Funny thing is ppl call me a fanboy, yet I choose whats right for me and the situation. So I figured I keep the canon and 5 lenses for fashion and use the nikon for outside and then I shot the Nikon... The difference even then was staggering and within a day I introduced the canon to craigslist, that was 2007 and the IQ really never improved until the new 80D... to each his/her own though. IMO canon is great for SOOC jpg shots but the raw edibility is just too far behind. Personally, I edit and usually over edit lol but it's more to calm my adhd down, so I want a sensor that's current today not 8 years ago. Not to mention how canon handicaps their models so bad, I can't imagine not being able to af spot meter for example... anyways, not knocking your parade.
Anyways, the d4s sensor is a "nikon" sensor not sony or toshiba, it's a different beast all together and we're talking d610 or D750 here and I hate to tell you that the 5d3 isn't even the same league when it comes to clean shadows. The only canon on thats kinda close is the 6d and it's not real close. 5D3 was a great camera but here's an example of the difference between pulling shadows on a 5d3 and a d750 (see below). Certainly ups can't say those are even remotely close... fyi... that pic is from http://www.rossharvey.com/reviews/nikon-d750-review
Personally, I think the actual image quality coming off a d610 kicks the 5d3 square up in the nuts and then there's the issue of noise where the d610 just smokes the 5d3. If the af wasn't so bad on d610....
Not knocking the canon, just calling it as it is.
As far as video... yes canon should be better as really they seem to care more about video than stills and to me a camera should be a camera. If someones paying you money for video then you should use the right tool for the job, aka a video camera. With that being said most reviewers have said the D750 is near or at the top as far as video goes.
Nikon has had it's issues lately but really you already know when a new model comes out that it's a no brainer that the sensors gunna rock, the af should be good, noise should be controlled good. With Canon it seams like it's whole huge list of what if's and whether or not they'll be using the same internal parts again...
Imo, grab that d750, I have yet to hear anyone I know say anything bad about it or wait a few months and see what the new version will have. That new af is pretty damn good. I just wished the d750 was in the pro body style. I hardly shoot my d7000 anymore after shooting with a D700.
I'm not sure I've every actually sen a D750 for sale used... says it all right there.
I really didn't want to spark a canon vs. Nikon debate. I work with both and they both get the job done when a competent photographer uses them, but as far as your comments, it's not only my 5d3, but files from other bodies that I've worked with. I've seen plenty of reviews and comparisons just like the one you've posted here
All I'm saying is that I'm never able to reproduce the same magic when working Nikon files.
People probably call you a fanboy because of the way you huff and puff when someone has an opinion that is out of favor with Nikon.
I'm not trying to persuade Isaac not to switch (don't worry) because at the end of the day, it's all about the person using the camera and working the files. I've seen complete shit from top tier cameras of all manufacturers, and great images from junk cameras.
Nikon, Canon, Sony, Fuji, Pentax, Panasonic, Lieca... JUST PICK ONE AND LEARN HOW TO USE IT WELL
Exactly, i hate the "brands" debates. I just want a camera that works for my work, when i shoot sports on professional stadiums with professional standards there's no other way than Canon. I'm not a Fanboy, i just want the best for me.
First off I didn't mean to be disrespectful and have some crazy allergy crap and haven't been able to sleep and pissed of at 3 legged things tripods for their defective products breaking 2 lenses and my D700 and promising me 18+ times that they'd be replacing that gear then wussing at when it was their turn
I think before you call me a fanboy that you should read what you wrote prior as that's the way you came off. And really there's nothing "fanboy'" that I wrote and i have no issue going to another brand if it's what I need or want just like I did when I left canon and your comment on it to me is completely hypocritical.
If canon came out with a comparable sensor and they added af spot metering and an intervalometer and all that to all their models then I'd consider it. I've had sony as well and I'd go there or pentax.
" I've been able to recover more blown highlights with the d4s vs 5d3"
This is kind of odd because usually canon brings back highlights better
"All I'm saying is that I'm never able to reproduce the same magic when working Nikon files."
Well maybe you should work on that, it's not rocket science. Most of my friends have canons and they don't have much latitude. As an example.. last night a friend asked me for a lightning pic in st pete, flo because he need one with foreground, so I sent him one that was really dark and he thought I was messing with hi but he tried and I think he said he pushed it 4.35 stops and hardly any noise and lots of detail... I have a feeling his canons about to go on cl. What nikon are you having the issues with? And are you using lightroom? And you're using using any of the "features" like active-d lighting that lr won't even recognize it and they can't even get the color right anyway. If you do use thing's like active -d or a photo that you really want colors correct on then open it up in nikons nx-d software and export of into a tif and then import into lr and the colors will be right,,, I'd guard this would work for canon as well
And really I wasn't trying to get into the typical nikon vs canon ordeal but in this case it kinda is since it's really canons sensor vs nikons tweaked sony version.
A lot of it depends on how and when you shoot. I'd change your statement to learn how to use the camera how you want to use it.
There's a lot of people who discredit the 5 stop push test and I'd guess that's because they stay in controlled situations where you can work or control the light and situations. And then there's people like me who hear lightning and am running out the door to go chase it down in the middle of the night and you either can't or don't have time to try and get a "proper pic". Instead I just get a shot and know that when i edit it I can bring up the foreground if I need to and that's not just Nikon,it's pretty everyone except canon, those 2-3 stops of dr is the difference.
Or another is I'll be shooting hummers and as it gets dark I'll turn flashes off because I know their life could depend on getting one more swag of nectar, so I'll shoot them at high shutter speeds and the files are almost black but you can bring them out and no one knows.
At the end of the day we all shoot for different reasons and most of us suck lol.. I shoot to subdue my adhd a bit. But my thing for myself is that I want camera's that I don't have to makes excuses for why the camera can't get the shot and IMO thats where canon has been stuck. Maybe how you shoot you don't see it... I shoot 150k+ shots a year
I don't mean to come off as I do, it's just how i write it lol
If you want me to look at some of the files and see if I can see the issue. Personally I've found that shooting in neutral looks the blandest but packs the most of color and detail
Dave, you gotta chill man. I only made comments about my personal experience. Yes, ive edited the Nikon files in Lightroom, and I have no idea what any of that stuff you said even is, and maybe THAT is exactly the reason why I've never seen the results others have. Whatever the case, you're still acting like a fanboy huffing and puffing for no reason.
MY experience with the products has not been the same as yours. Get over it. We're supposed to be helping Isaac here
Are you really comparing a 5d to a d810? Of course you feel in love with the d810 by comparison. Do you mean a 5dIII?
Yep
Even a d700 would be great
*Not bashing. I think Nikon has an amazing product. It's the photographer that makes the shot and the client that chooses their style, not the camera system.
I was getting impatient waiting for the 5D Mark lV, so I borrowed my friends D750. I can't do it. I don't care how much better the focus is or the DR(which I've have never needed). The color and difference in the way the image looks digitally is so foreign that I will probably never make the jump to Nikon. When I switched to from film to digital it was with the 5D Mark I. I believe I'm a little bit institutionalized with Canon because of this. I also think we all benefit from such a split market. Each new launch pushes the other to make our tech better(Thank you Sony and Nikon;). Let's just hope that Canon can catchup.
As for your question, go with the D750, or wait for the 5D Mark IV.
@Lee Morris "D750 is superior on all fronts" Clearly all fronts doesn't include the future. As in how awesome the Mk IV will be ;)
If i could wait i certainly do it, but i need the camera before photokina :/ either way i'm waiting to see how wonderfull or dissapointing will be canon announcement
As an owner of the D610 and D750 and also a wedding photographer, the D750 is way ahead of the D610. Not just in ISO performance but the AF is amazing. Way more hits in low light where as the D610 hunts. With that being said, I also own the D810 which I personally feel is ahead of the D750, but not by much. If I were making the jump, depending on budget, I would elect to choose the D810 over the D750.
thanks, in fact with the d750 i'm stretching my budget but i think it worth it. The next week should be in my hands ;)
