I agree. If you want to keep data secure, handing it off to a batch of large corporations seems like the worst way to do it. Putting data into the cloud means that you're giving up a lot of privacy...

With good lenses (like the fixed ones stopped down), you are unlikely to get a substantial resolution improvement with the D600. Both cameras have similar megapixel counts, and if the lens can...

Live view can be pretty high resolution. On the D600 and any other modern DSLR with live view, you can zoom to 1:1 on the live view feed, and see exactly what the pixels will look like in the final...

In movie mode with aperture priority set, it will hit 1/8000 already if it's bright enough and you have a fast lens.
But it doesn't give you anything extra because ISO 50 isn't available in movie...

I don't know why anyone in their right mind would buy a Leica. Their stuff is just ridiculously overpriced for what it offers.
Anyways, it's more about confidence in the Nikon brand and what new...

Perhaps investment is the wrong word. I'm not an investor, but I'm definitely a stakeholder (i.e., I care about what happens to Nikon ten years from now).
If Nikon goes under because they can't...

Well, not completely. How much you can extract out of the image by manipulating the contrast curve depends on the sensor.
For example, you can apply a curve that lifts up all the dark areas of the...
-
Yes. If you turn VR off, you're missing out on stabilization, which can greatly increase your chances of getting a sharp shot at low shutter speeds.
It won't make much of a difference in broad...
-
Given that you can get a used, autofocusing 80-200/2.8 for $600 (or less if you're willing to compromise on AF speed), this lens is a stop and a half slower than what you could get for that price.
-
It's probably the sensor readout speed that's the bottleneck, not the processor's capability to crunch data.
They need a sensor that can read frames off faster without having crop.
-
That would be nice.
A D610 with that shutter, a batch of firmware tweaks (for things like video), 6 fps, a deeper buffer, and perhaps things like the D7100's OLED viewfinder display and improved...
-
I really hope it's more than 6 fps.
Then what's the point of the D610 release? What does it give over keeping the D600 and just coming out and saying for certain that they have a solution to the...
-
Well, we're not really assuming. All we know right now is that having 6 fps instead of 5 is the only known likely improvement.
Personally, I really hope they improve all those things on the list....
-
And giving a new name to the same camera is very underwhelming.
That "I'm standing still but it's ok because my competitor is too" attitude is pretty dangerous. The D610 will be measured against...
-
I agree that clearing out the problem is a good thing. However, a new model number without any other significant improvements just isn't the way to do it. It's way too underwhelming for a new model...
-
That's exactly it.
I'm very interested in what a D300 replacement will bring, and I'm even more interested in a D700 replacement. In fact, if there's a true D700 replacement (fast shooting sports...
-
I don't recall any Nikon DSLR releases where improvements have been so small. Even in the cheapest DSLRs (going from the D3100 to D3200 for example), there were notable improvements like sensor...
-
The D800 is not a straight upgrade. It's pretty much a different camera for a different purpose. There are also a lot of things to like about the D600 that aren't in the D800 (quieter shutter,...
-
I have my D600 set to clean the sensor on shutdown, and there is clearly a sound when it cleans the sensor. It's very quiet and high pitched.
I also tried a later D600 (mine was pre-ordered the...

I think it's the VR/VC mechanism too. Try turning VC off and see if the viewfinder image still jerks around.
