  • Abstract:  Can Nikon put a foot wrong in the D-SLR business at the moment? We're not so much talking about a renaissance any more as a belle epoch. The list of recent home runs is truly impressive – D4, D800/800E, D3200 and now the D600 (with, we're reliably informe...

  • Abstract:  So, who's going to say it first? No matter how happy you might be with your ‘APS-C' format D-SLR, it's fair bet you've secretly been yearning for a return to the 35mm image size. C'mon, be honest now. Of course, many working photographers happily kissed g...

  • When the Nikon D7000 came out two years ago it proved remarkably popular and the same fate appears likely with the D600. While the body has a distinctly 'plastic' look and feel, it's solidly constructed and feels comfortable to hold. Users with large hand...

  • This camera' is so good, we'd even say that a lot of people who would otherwise shell out for the D800 or EOS 5D Mark III could consider the D600 instead. It's really more than just a scaled-down professional camera for amateurs. This is a different tool...

  • For anyone with Nikon lenses and accessories, the D600 is the logical step into full-frame photography. FX lenses made for the smaller APS sensor are recognised by the D600, which crops the image automatically for the reduced image area. For serious vide...

  • Resolution, colour and exposure are outstanding. We tried the camera with different lenses and sharpness is exemplary. Camera responsiveness is excellent. The HDR function works well even though it is only a two shot sequence.
  • The autobracketing is restricted to three exposures. Ridiculous for a camera of this price and specification. Our ancient D300 manages nine. Cheapskate firmware crippling is not appropriate at this level

  • Excellent image quality, Near-perfect compromise between ease of use and functionality, Impressively low price tag
  • Inferior in some ways to Canon's competing 6D, Some artificial impediments versus the D800, Minor design niggles
  • Nikon's newest, smallest and lightest full-frame digital SLR is also it's cheapest. It's not far behind professional bodies in terms of its feature-set, and it's got the image quality chops to flatter any subject. It's a very appealing camera for price-co...
