These are my thoughts on the Nikon D780 after shooting a 9-hour wedding with one in London in February of 2020. I had it for 3 days, so this isn’t an exhaustive technical review; I’m not going to dissect it or pixel peep, just report on my impressions as a full-time wedding photographer who normally uses a couple of D750s.
We're smack in the middle of that end-of-the-year lull, but that won't be the case for very long. According to the latest reports, Nikon is planning to start 2020 with a bang by officially announcing a new camera and two new lenses at CES in January.
The D750 is a favorite among Nikon DSLR shooters, but in 2019 it's really starting to show its age. Thankfully, the latest reports hint at a replacement coming sooner rather than later, and as of this morning, we have our first set of rumored specs for the unconfirmed DSLR.
Unfortunate news from the Nikon camp this week: Nikon has issued yet another recall notice for the D750 DSLR, informing owners that the shutter problem first reported in 2014 may still be present in cameras manufactured recently.
My name is Chris Harrison, and I'm a photographer based in Hilperton, Wiltshire, England. In this post, I'll share a head to head comparison of the Nikon D750 DSLR and Fujifilm X-T2 mirrorless camera in shooting motorsport.
Despite rave reviews, the Nikon D750 has been plagued by several issues since its release in September of 2014. And even though Nikon did issue a recall of certain models due to a well-documented flare problem, it seems another potentially-related issue with the shutter is being reported in the forums.
Nikon just announced that it's expanding its recall of its D750 DSLR over the shutter issue that caused ugly lens flares to show up in some photographers' photos.
Photographer Raymesh Cintron recently ran the Titans Race 10K ultimate outdoor challenge in Puerto Rico, an intense endurance challenge that's filled with mud and water. While competing, Cintron also carried along his Nikon DSLR and GoPro camera to document the race. Needless to say, he's is a firm believer in the idea that camera equipment should be used rather than babied.
Nikon has issued a new service advisory for the D750 DSLR, warning owners that some cameras may have a shutter defect that causes shading in a portion of photos. This notice comes half a year after Nikon warned D750 owners of a flare issue that had been discovered by photographers.
Nikon has just released a new firmware update for the D750. The download is version C:1.02 and is designed to make your D750 "more reliable."
That's literally all Nikon is saying about this update.
The Nikon D750 has a hot shoe that's different than the hot shoes on previous Nikon DSLRs, and the minor difference is causing major problems for some photographers. At least, that's what the flash and accessory maker Phottix is claiming.
One of the big camera industry rumors this year that hasn't come to pass (yet) is the fancy new firmware update system Nikon reportedly has up its sleeve. Nikon Rumors still believes that leak to be legitimate.
Big firmware updates are coming though: Nikon announced today that it will be releasing major firmware updates this summer for a few of its high-end DSLRs that will make them more capable as filmmaking cameras.
In mid-January, Nikon started offering completely free repairs for D750 to fix the flare issue that was discovered in some units. Photographer Jared Polin of FroKnowsPhoto was one D750 owner who took advantage of the service advisory. He tells us he just got his camera back yesterday, and the receipt above shows the repairs that were made.
Nikon has unveiled a new DSLR kit that's specifically geared toward people who want to get into DSLR filmmaking. Called the Nikon D750 Filmmakers Kit, the bundle includes a DSLR, three lenses, and additional accessories that are helpful for video productions.
Nikon said earlier this month that it would be offering free repairs for D750 owners affected by the camera's flare issue, and today the company issued a service advisory that gets the ball rolling.
It appears that the Nikon's response to the D750 flare issue is much more than an offer for a free repair. The camera is currently disappearing from stores, both online ones and brick-and-mortar ones, suggesting that some kind of recall or delay has been implemented while Nikon fixes the defect. [Update: We have confirmed that there is a recall.]
If you're a Nikon D750 owner experiencing the camera's dark band/flare issue, help is on the way. Less than two weeks after announcing that it is investigating the issue, the company is now saying that it will be offering free repairs to customers affected by the problem.
A week ago, we reported that some owners of the Nikon D750 are reporting a strange and ugly dark band that appears at the top of the frame, interrupting lens flare when the camera is pointed at certain angles towards light sources. Nikon acknowledged the issue today and says that it's currently looking into a fix.
The Nikon D750 full frame DSLR has been receiving fantastic marks from reviewers so far, but now an issue has popped up that threatens to damage the camera's reputation. Photographers around the world are reporting a problem with their lens flares. At certain angles, an ugly dark band shows up across the top, separating lens flares from the edge of the frame.
This piece of news might be concerning to those who already have or are looking to get their hands on Nikon’s new D750 camera. According to a report, the WiFi app built into the D750 automatically uses an unsecure connection to transfer images from your camera, which means anybody with a WiFi-capable device and some know-how could get their hands on your photos.
Just over a week ago we featured Matt Granger's review of ZEISS’ recently-announced Otus 85mm f/1.4, and today he’s back with a quick review and comparison test of Nikon's newest full-frame camera: the D750.
Nikon this morning officially announced the D750, a 24-megapixel full frame DSLR geared towards photography enthusiasts. It will be a middle-tier full-frame model that's offered between the cheaper D610 and the more expensive D810.
We’ve known for a few weeks that a Nikon full frame camera is in the works. In our previous coverage we’ve shared some of the initial specs and a reported confirmation of the name, but today we have a few more thanks to a screenshot acquired by Nikon Rumors.
We've known for a couple of weeks that there is a new Nikon full-frame in the pipeline; a camera recent reports claimed would be an action/sports camera. And now, Nikon Rumors "can confirm" that the upcoming shooter will be called the D750.
As Photokina draws nearer, the rumor mill seems to be churning out more and more notable updates. The latest of these is a compilation of rumors shared with Nikon Rumors that points at Nikon releasing a new full-frame DSLR. Said to fall between the D610 and D810 models, the supposed specs are rather impressive considering the price point.
