Been enjoying my D600. Awesome camera!

[Rservello]

The light colors were getting really nice.




Who doesn't love chrome?




Getting coffee in the morning...the sign made me snap a pic.




Early morning at work. Grey skies can make for interesting lighting.

Some shots I took most recently. I really love the performance of this camera. Very low noise, even in high ISO.

Nice DOF in the first two Photos, but the green CAs+Highlights are a bit horrible for me. :-O

 

[Rservello]

Thanks for taking a look and commenting!

Agreed ,I plan on keeping mine till the wheels fall off.

Well you could use wider tyres and wheels, a free flow…. oh wait a MINIute… this is the camera forum… Nice pics. Went off down a winding road for a little bit. My second MINI has 104k miles.

Nice photos and good use of light.

I have a loupe and a rocket blower, a sensor brush, a sensor stamp, and a sensor pen on the way. I'm not afraid of maintainence!

Like you, i have found it to be almost perfect camera for my use . . . excepting maybe long tele use wherein i need a DX body since i flat can't afford "super teles".

I've had mine since october and almost 6k activations; dry dust started showing up at 2k, but i've only had to use the static brush thrice and it is clean. Honestly i prob-lee watch the sensor more than my other bodies, but it has been no big deal.

And, yes, it really works very well; an under-appreciated feature is, i think, that it takes AIS lenses quite easily. i really have no desire for a Df, and i own an F100, FM and FM3a.

I recently bought the D610 and i too have to say that its awesome.
Best camera Ive ever used!

 

[Rservello]

Fantastic High ISO, low light performance!

The D600 really handles its own in low light with very clean High ISO performance. I've been very impressed. Shot at ISO 4000, still looking super clean!

I love My D600 also. No issues at all. It's really dissapointing to read so many complaints on this forum over the past few months. I read all the complaints and still bought one, glad I did!

Same here. But, typically, forum complaints are unfounded. I'm at over 6000 actuations already and no issues.

 

[Rservello]

Some early morning shots. Sometimes it's good to leave at 5am!




A rather interesting light challenge. Handled like a champ! I love you D600!

I'm so impressed with how well it handles low light situations. Both shot at rather low ISO and still look great!

I'm really impressed with how even the exposure is, even on a very bright sunny day at the beach.

So I decided to take a day and not look at my light meter. It was a sunny day with some clouds so I started the day at a f5.6 / 1/500 exposure in bright sun (ISO 100) (f4 / 1/1000 when I wanted a little more separation, and of course other calculated variants in between). Stopped up 2 stops for shade, and as the day progressed and the sun started to settle would gradually stop up by half increments. I'm very happy with the resulting exposures and feel like I'm getting much more even results doing this rather than constantly consulting my meter. I also switched to half stops so its a little easier to stop up and down as needed. My goal is to be able to do this instinctually instead of having to think of conversions in my head as I prepare to shoot. Sure it will slow me down at first...but I think the more I do it the more I will be able to set my exposure as I go and be able to just point and shoot.

It also gives me the old thrill I used to get when shooting film of exposing but not really knowing if it came out right until it's processed.

Decided to go to the Huntington Botanical Gardens on a grey super bowl sunday and got some pretty cool shots


There is very minimal processing on all of these. I wanted them to look how they looked when I shot them. It was grey and rainy.


Some really cool clouds. Grey days can be really tricky...since it is bright in the sky and dark on the ground and everything is basically backlit. D600 nailed the lighting tho


A storm is coming.


Soft shadows can be tricky...and beautiful. Also, the lack of light means a lack of color....which is not necessarily a bad thing. I think the greys against reds come off quite pretty.


Some more interesting back lighting. While it is mostly silhouette...it still has detail.


Cool candid, shot from the hip in Q mode (or as I like to call it...stalker mode.)


The gloomy grey lighting also works well in B&W.


My goal with this was to not only capture the crazy lighting...but to also use the low f-stop to create a shallow dof and really take in the tranquility. This color is a very sincere interpretation of the day.


I noticed a light under the tea room. It turned off the second after I took this. So it felt even more special.


The sun broke for the briefest of moments.


I intentionally shot this at f1.4 to give it a very confusing DOF. The shallow fg is out of focus...but the infinite reflection under it is in focus. A very interesting trick of physics!


The obligatory low SS waterfall. I had to do it tho, since it was SO dark, I was able to achieve this without an ND filter.

This was my first outing with the D600 on a grey and stormy day and I think it did a phenomenal job. Very happy with the results and am more happy with this camera the more I take it out!
