  • Very good image quality. Compact design for a full-frame SLR. Huge range of connectivity options from headphone monitoring to clean HDMI output. Automatic time-lapse mode. Automatic white balance is accurate
  • Wi-Fi connectivity is an optional extra through an adapter. No audio-level adjustment while filming. Kit 24-85mm doesn't get the most out of the sensor
  • Offering a range of video controls and still-image quality refined over generations of Nikon cameras, the D600 is an impressive SLR that signals a new era in full-frame photography....

  • Autofocus sensor positioning, No aperture adjustment in video mode, Pricey, Fixed LCD screen
  • Buying Guide Best camera accessories The Nikon D600 is a terrific camera. To produce a full-frame sensor with comparable image quality to the likes of the Nikon D4, Nikon D800 and Canon EOS 5D Mark III is no mean feat in itself; but to house it in a body ...

  • Abstract:  Nikon may have chosen not to reposition the D600 in its pro line-up, but there's nothing remotely amateur about the way this camera looks and feels. Everything about it is sturdy and solid, with the screen protector on the main LCD especially shouting tha...

  • Nikon's D800 turned out to be one of 2012's most surprising success stories. As attention shifted from the 5D Mark III's lukewarm debut and onto the D800's huge 36.3 megapixel sensor, it reignited the age-old megapixel war —a war we believed to be over. N...

  • Price, Resolution, Image quality, Movie performance, Build quality
  • Occasional minor chromatic aberration with kit lens, Heavy when fitted with lens
  • The D600 represents excellent value for money. If you've been hankering after a full-frame dSLR and don't have a stash of rival lenses that you want to keep using, look this way. It's chunky, and a little bit heavy, but it's a camera that should serve ...
