Pros:
|
Dynamic range is amazing. Color rendition is amazing. Very sharp images. Tough body that handled drops well. Tons of features for professionals. Feels nice to hold.
|
|
Cons:
|
Video capability isn’t the best. Overheats during video. Nikon’s colors for skin can sometimes be splotchy and have a tinge. A bit heavy.

Even after nearly a decade, this camera sensor is among the top rated compared to many other newer cameras. I could use it endlessly for stills. AF was always fast and accurate. Landscape photos were the best. Nikon’s remote system for compatible external flashes allowed me to have control of lighting for portraits. It even survived a couple of tumbles and bumps without being affected in my travels around the world. In this day and age of mirrorless cameras, I would still buy the model for stills. However, unfortunately it overheats during video, and the quality of video is barely acceptable by today’s standards. For photography, absolutely recommended.

I upgraded from a D7000 to this camera, so the body felt pretty much the same, just slightly bigger. I've used many other Nikon DSLR's and this is by far the best. The low light performance and dynamic range are better than I expected. There's a reason this camera sensor is so well rated, it really is that good. I shoot a lot of walk-around portraits, studio and outdoor portraits, and landscapes with this camera. It has exceeded my expectations, especially in landscape settings. I haven't needed a filter kit since getting it!
The only complaint I have would be the fixed aperture in Live View. It's not an issue with manual lenses (obviously), but kind of sucks with G lenses when composing landscapes. Although closing and re-opening LV isn't really that big of a deal, so I'm splitting hairs a bit.
I love my D610. Steal of a deal at the current price point.

I don't like the price of full-frame lenses or the seemingly poorer choice compared with DX

This is my sixth Nikon DSLR and the best so far. I love the lack of image noise and the clarity of the image, and I like that I can run both my D7100 and the D610 using the same batteries and controls. The battery seems to last much longer on the D610. They are similar in size and weight but the D610 has better noise control and image quality.
I was a bit worried about the dust problem associated with the previous version, the D600, but despite changing lenses constantly I have yet to find any evidence of dust with this camera.

User interface and accessories pretty identical to my other camera - D7100. I only shoot Raw and images are terrific. Don't miss the D700 any more.

None so far.
